Tuesday night’s game against the Toronto Raptors started off so much better than last night’s 30-point drubbing to the Boston Celtics. With Jimmy Butler and P.J. Tucker both back, the Miami Heat offense hummed and Miami jumped out to an early lead. The Heat led 32-22 after the first quarter and even held a 15-point lead early in the third quarter.
The rest of the game? Not so good.
The Raptors went on a run to get back in the game in the third, deploying a zone defense that flummoxed the Heat.
