Don’t look now, but the HEAT have had one heck of a start to the season.
Thanks to great ball movement and hard-nosed defense, Miami has already notched impressive victories over the Bucks and Rockets en route to a 5-1 opening.
Speaking of the Rockets, let’s quickly recap that historic matchup for the HEAT on Sunday.
In a nutshell, Miami ran Houston out of the gym and set franchise records for points in a first quarter (46) and point differential after one (plus-32). Naturally, Jimmy Butler set the tone and did a little bit of everything, but pretty much everyone balled out before the night was done.
