Lakers at Heat Thoughts

Disclaimer: I didn’t actually watch the game. The only thing I’ve seen is a picture of Dwyane Wade smiling, and the box score. And from that, I can’t be too worried about this one game as a Lakers fan.

Two things immediately jump out in the box score. Lakers free throw woes, and the blazing accuracy of Miami’s three point shot. The Lakers shot 15-25 from the charity stripe, good for 60%.  If they had shot their season average of 77%, they would have scored 4 more points, which isn’t insignificant in a 3 point game. On Miami’s side, Quentin “every team keeps trading me” Richardson shot 7-11 from 3 point range. Fire.

Just based on box score alone, I’d just chalk this up as a disappointing loss.
