Miami Heat Appear To Be Right On Track To Peak At The Right Time

Facing off against a team that has also been pesky this season for them, the Toronto Raptors, they would go into the Scotiabank Arena on Kyle Lowry Day to knock them off.

Yes, Kyle Lowry was in the lineup for his first actual game there since leaving, but the Miami Heat would be without several key guys for that one. They would be sans P.J. Tucker, Gabe Vincent, Dewayne Dedmon, Jimmy Butler, and the man running the show, Erik Spoelstra.

It didn’t matter though, as Bam Adebayo, Max Strus, Kyle Lowry, Tyler Herro, Victor Oladipo, a starting Markieff Morris, and the rest of the crew were able to go and get one of the grittiest Heat wins of the entire year.

Yes, this was just a beautiful rendition of recapping the week, certainly. However, the grander point here is what matters.

That is this. For as disastrous as the week before this last one seemed, this past week was, perhaps, just as intense—but going in the other direction.

The Miami Heat had a stupendous week and still look to be right on track to peak at the right time.
