Why is Kirk's number 1 takeaway from this chart "Here Comes Miami" ?

Isn't it more notable that they are barely above league average efficiency when they've won 7 straight?

Doesn't that insinuate that it's more likely they've eeked out some wins instead of dominated teams?

There are a few teams in the league where when theyโ€™re involved in a game you can throw out the other teams net rating for the year. The heat are one. Itโ€™s extremely rare they donโ€™t linger into the 4th quarter of losses and itโ€™s extremely rare that they blow anyone out in wins. But their games tend to be muddy
