Heat loses their amazing streak of 27 wins!

                                        
 
The Miami heat is currently going through a successful yet hard working season so far. Ever since their chemistry has improved since they received the NBA championship title for the 2011-2012 season, the Heat has been improving more and more.
As most basketball players know the Los Angeles Lakers holds the most consecutive wins of thirty-three wins but, the way the Miami Heat has been playing offensively and defensively they have made it to an impressive twenty- seven winning streak. Last night's  game against the Chicago Bulls was indeed a very intense game. When the Miami Heat lost to the Chicago Bulls everyone was shocked only because the Heat have one of the best records in the league and most of the players on the Bulls are injured.  The Chicago Bulls game into this game with a better defense and better offense which resulted into a win against the Miami Heat. After the Heat losing their winning streak it brought more confidence to the Chicago bulls and brought a realization to the way the Heat played that game. The playoffs are coming soon, will the Miami Heat win the Championship title for the second year in a row? Will the Bulls come back as a stronger team?

Gasol is back to the Lakers!

Gasol has returned to the Los Angeles Lakers after being on the bench since February 5,2013 but is having Gasol back in the starting line up beneficial for the Lakers?
     After coming off the bench for the Wizards v.s Lakers as the starting power forward, Laker's fans were probably thinking that this game would be a easy win but it was not. In the previous games the Lakers encountered were better offensively and defensively but The head coach Mike D'Antoni said in the press conference that the Lakers still have more improvements and adjustments that need to be made as soon as possible. The Lakers have been struggling throughout their season but as Gasol was out due to an injury, the Lakers have managed to make the eighth seat and win more games with a smaller line up. The wizards game was indeed a shock when the ending result was 100 Lakers- 103 Wizards. Having Gasol play that game didn't really help, there were to many fast break lay ups and easy shots that were attempted and succeeded. Before Pau Gasol came back into the line up, the Laker's Chemistry was very decent up and down the stretch. Their offense and defense now have to adapt to Gasol's return but, will that help the Lakers throughout the rest of their season?!
