Toronto Raptors vs. Miami Heat live stream: how to watch the NBA online

On the final day of the regular season, Immanuel Quickley and the Toronto Raptors head to South Beach to take on Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat. The game starts at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT on Sunday, April 14. The game will be played inside the Kaseya Center in Miami.

 

The Raptors will not be playing in the postseason. Instead, Toronto will spend this offseason figuring out how to build around Scottie Barnes, R.J. Barrett, and Quickley. The Heat, on the other hand, have qualified for the postseason. Their postseason will likely begin in the Play-In Tournament. Last season, Miami went to the NBA Finals as the No. 8 seed, so the Heat know what it takes to win these big games.

 Heat need enduring playoff run to obtain enduring answers

MIAMI – When it comes to a potential extended playoff run, Pat Riley, Andy Elisburg and the rest of the Miami Heat braintrust need something extended, something more than one or two games of the play-in round. No, not for the ego providing themselves right with this roster, or the organizational credit that would come from another deep run.

They need a significant sample size … because they need to know. Typically, it shouldn’t and wouldn’t be this way. Most teams, after an 82-game sample would know who and what they are, and where they potentially could be going down the road.

But little has been typical of this Heat season that largely has meandered around mediocrity, with the occasional thrill show, but also with plenty of chills and spills.

So who the heck are the 2023-24 Miami Heat? To this point, only questions. Answers at this late date remain necessary before entering any future thought, such as … – Can the real Jimmy Butler stand up?: Not will the real Jimmy Butler stand up, because amid this highly uneven close to Butler’s regular season, there can’t be anything but doubt about whether the body has given in to the years of wear.
