Recap: Miami 118, Cleveland 94 (Or, An 80s Induced Haze)

I was too optimistic in my pregame prediction of the final score. The Cavs were, it appeared, suffering from an 80s induced haze caused by the Miami Heat’s throwback jerseys and court. It’s either that or the zone defense Spoelstra had the Heat in all game long. Whatever the cause, Cleveland could get absolutely nothing going all game long. Sure, there were bright spots and blips on the radar sprinkled throughout the game, but ultimately, it didn’t amount to much more than a few Twitter highlights. With only nine players, the Cavs could not hang with the Heat for any length of time.
