The Miami Heat improved to 30-14 today against the Toronto Raptors, with Chris Bosh scoring 28 in his return to his former team and Lebron James and Dwyane Wade also doing that thing where they score a lot of points at a high percentage. Since I, just like Lebron, don't want to have any responsibilities on Super Bowl Sunday, I will merely highlight this game in bullet points.
Highs
- Dwyane Wade partied like it was 2006, cutting, driving, and dancing his way to 23 points on 10-18 shooting to go along with 5 assists, 5 rebounds, and 3 steals. Wade carried the team in the first half with a team-high 16 points to continue his current streak of playing high efficiency, high octane basketball for the Heat. We love you MV3.
- Lebron got a little jelly at halftime apparently to drop 30 points by the final buzzer to go along with 8 rebounds and 7 assists. Also, that breakaway dunk late in the fourth followed by the game-sealing dagger three almost made me want to watch another Heat game tonight instead of the Super Bowl, almost. Just another day at the office.
- Boshy had 28 as mentioned, but the rest of the Heat team had nothing to write home about. They didn't really need to, either, because Miami's Big Three did that thing where they played really good and stuff.
- The Heat win the East before the All-Star break, so Coach Spo will be the fourth Heat player to be apart of the the game next weekend.
Lows
- The Heat won the East before the All-Star break. Spo undoubtedly does not like this.
- Lebron James got blocked by Rudy Gay. This is actually a thing that happened.
- The Heat have now played on Superbowl Sunday and Christmas Day this season, which is no doubt a treat for us fans but miserable for our beloved Heat players. Oh well, they're the ones that make the big bucks.
The Heat will fly home to Miami about now to prepare for their bout against the Bobcats tomorrow at 7:30 ET in the AAA.
