Before we begin, I want to acknowledge I am still grateful to Cleveland for returning Wade to us for basically nothing.
Cleveland is a great team this season. They are 6-4 over the last 10 games. We (by contrast) are 4-6.
76ers beat them just before the allstar game.
Nuggets beat them after allstar break.
They lost to the Hawks the next night on a back-to-back.
They beat the Raptors at home on 2/26. Mitchell was 8/12 from beyond the arc and made 35 pts. Garland was +39 and had 11 assists.
They lost to the Celtics in Boston in a hotly contested game, got an extra night of rest and thrashed the Pistons.
Yesterday they beat Boston. Mitchell got 40 (8 for 8 at the free throw line) and Garland 12 assists.
Historical Record:
Miami 75-49 in the regular season.
We comfortably hold the advantage against them, but they are better recently. We are 1-1 this season and 1-2 last season.
Altogether, we are 48-14 hosting the game in Miami.
Cleveland won the first 9 games against us. We were 1-9 from 2007 through end of 2009-2010. Miami had the longest streak at 11 games. We had two 8-game winning streaks and a 6-game winning streak to boot.
We've never played them in the playoffs.
