The Miami Heat needed to start winning again consistently in the worst way. Out of their 13 games in the month of February, they needed to close out the month with two back to back wins against the Dallas Mavericks on Friday and the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday to finish the month above .500. They just did that with a record on the month of 7-6.
Looking even deeper into the scenario, prior to the back to back set against the Mavericks and the Nets but since coming back from the All-Star break, the Miami Heat had a record of 1-3.
