Show Notes
The Miami Heats defense, once a formidable force, has crumbled in recent games, dropping them into play-in territory. Their defensive rating has plummeted to twenty-seventh, allowing opponents to score an average of 124.9 points per 100 possessions. The team has lost six of their last seven games, including a franchise-worst 149-128 blowout to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Coach Erik Spoelstra and players acknowledge the issue, citing lapses in effort and giving up too much space. With eight games left and a must-win against the Indiana Pacers, the Heat must rediscover their defensive pride to secure a direct playoff spot.
