Miami Heat: The Offense Won’t Ever Get Any Worse Than Game 3… Hopefully

That period saw them score 31 points and outscore Philly, though only by four, it’s a win if you outscore the opponent. Herein lies the issue though.

That lone period, where they hardly outscored the opposition, nearly doubled the team scoring production in all other periods. There’s only one notion that can be taken from that fact.

You, absolutely, can’t win like that in the NBA and especially on the biggest platform in the game, the NBA Playoffs. To the fact of their third nearly doubling all other periods’ production, they would have two 17-point periods, back to back, in the first half.

To only score 17 points in one period is sad enough in the NBA and especially in the postseason, but to do it twice and in consecutive quarters won’t ever cut it, even in a preseason game. Ah ah ah though, they were not to be outdone in their own ineptitude though.
