The Miami Dolphins now have the longest playoff win drought in the AFC. Only the Detroit Lions have a longer streak in the NFL.

Joel Embiid is playing tonight
But the matchup I’m watching tonight is more of a closing thought:
Caleb Martin on Tyrese Maxey
With Martin’s recent success, it’ll be a necessity for him to continue to trail those on ball screens in a similar fashion – 7:37 PM

I’ll piggyback on @Dan Greenberg‘s point here. There’s so much wrong w/this.
1- ugh, personnel.
2- PHI doesn’t respect any shooter.
3- no one cutting or trying to help
4- C’s always get pulled into the mismatch game. It’s catnip. Throw everything else out because of the mismatch pic.twitter.com/G4GuZdJcJP – 3:04 PM

Three officiating errors cited at close of Heat-Hawks. Defensive 3-seconds uncalled on Hawks’ John Collins. Travel uncalled on Hawks’ Trae Young. And Heat’s P.J. Tucker not called for grabbing Collins’ jersey at critical juncture, seen here:
