Miami Heat Playoffs: Recent Win Over Hawks The Perfect Round 1 Building Point
However, there are quite a few things to like about the Miami Heat in this one too—the deciding things. First off, the Heat are just a better team, hands down.
The regular season records indicate it, as well as the final circumstances that got them both to where they currently are. The Miami Heat are the top seed coming into the playoffs, while the Hawks had to fight to get in.

Secondly and a huge part of all that goes into it, the Heat play both sides of the ball, while the Hawks can struggle, at times, defensively.
That was indicated by the Cavaliers’ early explosiveness on offense, until the Hawks stopped just enough of their potency in the second half to get it done, along, of course, with the Trae Young theatrics.
The Heat can be as explosive or as much as they need to be to match the Hawks on that side, while the Hawks can’t do the same on defense with the Miami Heat.
