It’s not always as noticeable but the Heat are an elite defensive team and the reasons teams seem to look befuddled against them and not play their best basketball is how fantastic they are in positional defense.



I’m excited as hell for the game today.

The Lakers were a top 3 defensive team after the All Star Break and they couldn't stop Denver's offense. Miami is going to run into the same problem as well especially considering they don't have an AD anchoring their defense. With that being said, Miami has the benefit of not having an obvious player in the lineup that can be hunted on defense in the way that DLo was.

Boston's inconsistency carried over into the playoffs, so that partly contributed to it as well.
