 Miami Heat close in on No1 seed in East

Miami Heat close in on No. 1 seed in East but season is no success – yet [{ "selector": ".kasev-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "250ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": 1} ] }]

1 seed in the Eastern Conference for the Miami Heat. This can be achieved in a number of ways, [{ "selector": ".hhmcx-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": 1} ] }]

but winning just one of your last two matches against the Atlanta Hawks or Orlando Magic will also get the job done. [{ "selector": ".jnmze-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": 1} ] }]

At this point, it would be surprising if the Heat didn't enter the NBA playoffs as the No. 1 seed in the East standings. Considering that prior to the season, [{ "selector": ".nyvtw-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": 1} ] }]

not many had even a heat finish as a top 4 seed in the conference, this is a huge win for the team overall. [{ "selector": ".neqct-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": 1} ] }]

However, the Heat isn't just about appreciating the regular season. It's never been. Particularly for this core group, [{ "selector": ".vpezm-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": 1} ] }]

this season will not be successful until they are able to produce during the playoffs. [{ "selector": ".zajnk-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": 1} ] }]

The Heat by Kyle Lowry, P.J. Tucker, and Markiff Morris notably won 50 games during the regular season. [{ "selector": ".ssbwf-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": 1} ] }]

He loaded up his roster to score a deep playoff run and eventually returned to the NBA Finals. [{ "selector": ".dieqx-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": 1} ] }]
