The Golden State Warriors came into the Chase Center for the second leg of back-to-back games on the West Coast Wednesday and Thursday. The Miami Heat, who knocked off the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday night, have the opportunity to get another quality win on Thursday against the Warriors. The Warriors would eventually come away with victory on the back of some heroics from their resident superstar, Steph Curry, but a very game finish to the game is not a plus.
There are no such things as moral triumphs for the Miami Heat, but this is a real win if they learn something from themselves. Bam Adebayo and Jimmy Butler also had very good Wednesdays. Adebayo had 26 points, eight rebounds, and an assist, while Butler had 27 points.
