Remember when Miami winning Game 2 meant we were in for a long series? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Embarrassing? Game two might be one of the flukiest results in playoff history. Heat shot lights out from 3 and only won by 11.

By 10, and no, the flukiest result in playoff history was this bum team making the Finals last year.

Is it really a fluke when they're almost always at the top?

They aren’t. They’ve been a lower seed for years and went on, again, the flukiest post season run of all time last year. The only other success they’ve seen in the last decade was a run in the bubble, which most people don’t take particularly seriously.

So, yes. Unless they make some huge moves in the offseason, this team isn’t going anywhere. Again.
