The Miami Heat weren’t able to get a win against the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday. Fortunately for them, they’ll have the chance to wipe that bad taste from their mouth, immediately.

Well, perhaps, fortunately. As apart of their playing eight games in 12 days, the Phoenix game included, they will face a Denver Nuggets team on Wednesday that might be reeling a bit themselves.

Losing star, starting point guard, and their second best player, Jamal Murray, to what has now been ruled a torn ACL injury, they might not be over it or through the acceptance phase of it all yet.

That’s just one side. They could be fully over it.

With that, it will probably mean a very motivated Denver team if so. As a ton of people have already begun to write this Denver team off, due to Murray’s injury, they’ll probably come out and play like madmen, especially in the first game afterwards.
