The Warriors secured five straight wins, including overtime one over Boston at home. The team was stronger against the Nuggets, even taking the lead in the fourth quarter. In the end, however, their opponents prevailed, 114-120. According to Kerr, the key factor was the officiating - Nikola Jokic made 18 free throws in the game. All in all, Golden State is slowly coming to life and chasing the playoff. So far, the Warriors are in 10th place in the West, 2.5 wins out of the top 6.

The Heat are in a much better position. Erik Spoelstra's team is 18-12 and in fifth place in the East. Even regular injuries to key players aren't affecting Miami's efficiency. On Christmas Day, the Heat hosted Philadelphia without Jimi Butler and still won 119-113. Surprisingly, Miami's most productive player in that game was rookie Jaime Jaquez, who scored 31 points and ten rebounds. Bam Adebayo added 26 points and 15 rebounds. On the eve of the meeting with Golden State, recall Miami's away stats - 9 wins in 15 games. Only Philadelphia has a better record in the East.

Golden State has shown signs of chemistry lately. So, it's no coincidence they've won so many games, ending up close to the top 6 in the Western Conference. Nevertheless, the Warriors still have problems, namely a weak defense. Miami has become a more offensive team in recent years and can take advantage of their opponent's weaknesses.
