Miami Heat: Even in defeat, there’s a huge positive to take from LA game

The Miami Heat found themselves facing the Los Angeles Lakers on the second night and backend of a back to back series of games on Friday. Did we mention it was the second night of a back to back set?

This is important to remember here because it showed on the court. The Miami Heat started the game sluggishly, going down by double digits very early on in the game. They would make a run to close the gap before the first quarter ended.

It was really a back and forth low scoring effort for most of the game between the two teams until the Lakers started to sink more baskets around the middle of the fourth.
