Maimi will apparently allow 3000 fans tomorrow, as the season/playoffs progress, the home-court advantage (disadvantage for raps) will be greater

Gonna be a tough one. We suck on back to backs. Won the last one against Minny but mans were running on fumes.

It was going to be a tough one anyway, but I think we'll have no energy after that defensive effort for the last 36 minutes tonight. This will be our 5th game in 8 nights. FVV looks to be running on fumes as the only PG the last 4.5 games, too. I think the only way we win this one is if we keep Miami under 100 points and we get another big boost from the bench like in Sunday's game against the Sixers.

i'd expect a loss but this team always has the ability to surprise.

anyway, in the mid-term, we're nearing top 10 in both offensive/defensive rating now which matches the eye test and is pretty good considering this is without lowry. exactly 9th in net rating. which says to me there's an ability here to put them over the top towards the real contenders, we're just missing another piece. and the key will utilising lowry as an asset to get there.

This is going to be a knock down, drag them out dog fight. Neither team has an all star, but both well coached and disciplined.
