Heat officially clinch play-in after Thursday's loss
Briefly

The Miami Heat earned a play-in spot for the third consecutive year, following the Milwaukee Bucks' victory against the Philadelphia 76ers. Despite being tied for the No. 9 seed in the Eastern Conference, Head Coach Erik Spoelstra acknowledges the importance of competition and having something to strive for, even if the team isn't where they had hoped to be as an organization. Miami's play-in game is scheduled, and their performance this season reflects the continued challenges faced against a highly competitive league.
We all know this is the reality that nobody wanted, but the Miami Heat officially clinched a play-in spot for the third straight year.
Are we where we had planned to be as an organization? No, but there is great competition now league-wide. And when you have something to play for as an organization, it's fun and it matters still.
