For Miami Heat fans, Tuesday can’t come soon enough.
With Game 5 of the first round series against the Philadelphia 76ers tipping off at 8 PM ET, it’s do or die for the men of South Florida; the Heat are currently down 3-1 and face elimination.
Still, Miami does have a chance to stay alive. Just like they did back in 1997, against the New York Knicks. Head coach Erik Spoelstra holds a 10-5 record when facing elimination, since taking over as head coach, and it’s easy to see how bad this team wants to stay afloat.
