The Miami Heat are starting to steady themselves and make a turnaround. Getting off to a slow start due to the injuries nothing other than bad luck on fell upon this team. With Wade back the outlook for the rest of the season is looking up. Friday night the Heat up ended the Rockets 98-91. The star duo of Shaq and Wade lead the way. Dwayne Wade scored 14 of his 31 points in the 4th quarter. Without him Miami wouldn't be able to survive. I'm sure they're glad to have him back.
Despite the offensive performance from Yao Ming (20 points) the Heat managed to outlast the Rockets, shooting 54% to their 44% from the field. The Diesel capped off the win with a strong scoring showcase of 26 points and 14 rebounds. Miami improves to 3-9 with many critics believing the Heat season is already over. I agree they have a long, uphill battle yet they still have a chance in the East.
The Celtics will be their toughest competitor. They'll be a top seed in the East. Next week they'll face the Bobcats and Celtics at home and today they take on Orlando. The head-t0-head strategies of Coach Van Gundy and Riley will probably make the game close coming down to the final few minutes. I still look for Wade to deliver in the clutch as he's done in the past.
