Miami Heat: Shift-Work Doesn’t Get The Job Done In Clippers Loss

Miami Heat: Shift-Work Doesn’t Get The Job Done In Clippers Loss

Well, as the Clippers adjusted to that, the Miami Heat then began to feed off of Tyler Herro in the middle portions of the game.

As that began to taper down, the Miami Heat got stagnant and stale, often scrambling to find shots with a bit of Tyler antics spritz around.

At one point and with Bam Adebayo not receiving a single touch on the possession, they found themselves going to a Caleb Martin isolation play.

That type of stagnation would put the Heat down nearly 10 towards the end of the game, before Kyle Lowry would go off to have one of his best stretches as a member of the Miami Heat thus far.

He had 22 in the fourth period, overall, but especially showed up with around two minutes left in the game. He would score two huge And-1 type plays to keep the Heat alive.

One was a layup and the other a three pointer, to give the Heat a chance to win the game in the end. He would then force a steal, giving the Heat the ball in the final moments with a chance to go up one.

Duncan Robinson could not sink the resulting three point shot, another issue all in itself, but you couldn’t blame Kyle Lowry for the decision or Duncan for the look, to be honest.
