Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra has demanded consistency from his teams since entering the head coaching ranks 10 years ago. Having dropped five of their last six games, the Heat haven’t displayed that ability as of late, and the trend would continue north of the border on Tuesday.
And this time, Miami’s defense turned out to be their demise, not their salvation.
Despite 28 points from Goran Dragic and seven Heat players finishing in double figures, Miami was unable to cap off a late rally and fell to the Toronto Raptors at the Air Canada Centre, 115-112.
