RECAP: Tough stretch allows Pacers to send Heat to 3rd straight loss

Turnovers and poor offensive execution killed Miami in this game against the Pacers.

Most of the time, when a team has more turnovers than assists at the end of a game, the final result is a loss. And that's what happened to the Miami Heat against the Indiana Pacers Friday night. With 19 turnovers to only 14 assists, the Heat didn't execute well on offense and Indiana capitalized on it. For a large part of the game, Miami played solid defense and gave good effort, but it's hard to win when you make so much mistakes offensively, especially when you are short-handed (Tyler Johnson and Josh McRoberts didn't play).
