Miami Heat: Most Important Week Of The Season Thus Far

However, is a matchup with the Boston Celtics something to be excited about right now based on how, both, the Miami Heat and Celtics have been playing? They have been one of, if not the best, teams in the league over the last month or so, while the Miami Heat might be a bottom three team over the past week.

There’s a bit more to the equation too though and it speaks to that level of play of both teams.

With the playoff seeding not really being the most important thing right now, it’s also a chance for the Miami Heat to see themselves get right over a high-quality opponent.

It’s all as much mental as it is physical, “it all”, as in everything that anyone ever does. That’s no different for these Heat and their ability to turn this thing around after a quick yet elongated bump in the road.

Closing out the week, they’ll face a Chicago Bulls team on Saturday that they have gotten the best of all year. On top of that, the Bulls haven’t beaten the good teams much all year long, so that is almost a barometer-type game for where this Heat team actually stands after the past week of calamity.
