What happened

The week opened with a 109-113 home loss to Dallas, dropping Miami to 0-4 and one fan to "worst case scenario unfolding." The turn came in Atlanta: a 129-117 win, Bam Adebayo becoming the franchise rebounding leader, and "Let's go Heat chants" on the road. A 145-125 rout of Indiana followed, the "Greek Freak starting to be freaky again." Fans savored the "radio silence online" from critics, and one still insists "78-4 still in place," which now requires never losing again.
