In the Miami Heat 114-106 win over the Indiana Pacers, Erik Spoelstra made the right decision again. This time not by calling the last play of the game, but letting Hassan Whiteside become the crunch time hero with a crucial block, rebounds and free-throw shooting.
The Heat lead the Pacers by as much as 16 points in third quarter, when the Pacers turned on the defensive pressure on the Miami ball-handers, who committed one mental mistake after another to fritter away their advantage.
Leading 84-78 going into the 4th quarter, the Pacers tied the game at 97 all with a Lance Stephenson jumper and 5:09 left in the game that brought the crowd into a frenzy.
