Five Degrees of Heat from Friday night’s 111-103 win in Boston: sun-sentinel.com/sports/miami-h…
1. Harrowing, but able to close.
2. Jimmy Butler conjures his LeBron.
3. Kyle Lowry, Max Strus step back up.
4. Start sets the tone.
5. Tyler Herro still in a waiting game. – 12:19 AM

Erik Spoelstra: “Jimmy Butler’s competitive will is as high as anyone.” – 11:48 PM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
I’m just glad that no one has brought up Boston closing out teams that did not have Ben Simmons, Khris Middleton, or Tyler Herro fully available… – 10:06 PM

With the hiring of Darvin Ham as the new head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers via @Adrian Wojnarowski, half of the 30 head coaches in the NBA are now black. With Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra (Asian), 16 of the NBA head coaches are of color. The Charlotte Hornets still have an opening. pic.twitter.com/QBObPk82Q68:40 PM

It’s pretty simple. If Tyler Herro could play through the groin injury, he’d play through the groin injury. – 7:17 PM
