Boy, am I glad I sent my 5-year old to bed before the second half of this game started. It was a burn-the-tape affair Monday night in San Antonio, where a healthy Spurs squad “won” a race to the bottom, 94-90, against a less-than-healthy Heat squad playing without Chris Bosh, bench totem Udonis Haslem, and starting point guard and old Spurs killer Goran Dragic. Josh Richardson started in Dragic’s place alongside more recently-minted Spurs Killer, Dion “There’s an Elbow in my Soup” Waiters.
On a night in the NBA when losing teams put up scores of 69 and 77, the shorthanded Heat’s 90 almost qualified as a victory.
