Before playing the game Tuesday night, many Cavaliers and Heat players were saying this would be like a playoff game; the Heat are in sixth place and the Cavs are fifth in the Eastern Conference.
Donovan Mitchell tried to keep the motion going for the Cavs by making assists to Evan Mobley throughout the night, setting him up for shots he knew he would make.Mitchell and Caris LeVert managed to make two buzzer threes at the end of the first and third.
Darius Garland was able to score back-to-back layups a few times and three pointers, one play being in the beginning of the third quarter where he was able to bring the lead up for the Cavs.Around the 7-minute mark, Cavs had a two-point lead. Miami point guard Tyler Herro made a jump-shot, followed by a three-pointer seconds apart from each other. He ended up getting fouled, which brought him to the free throw line where then the Heat regained the lead. From there, the Heat played strong.
The Cavs didn’t tie the game up until Issac Okoro’s three-pointer at the 3-minute mark. The Cavs just needed to make smart decisions to end it, but with missed shots, a turnover and bad passes in between they couldn't—once again—close a fourth quarter.Mobley ended with 19 points, seven rebounds, and four assists. Mitchell had 16 points, nine assists, four steals and three rebounds.Herro, Bam Adebayo, and Caleb Martin combined for 54 points.
