21 Games Later...By Deron Butler

What started as a win over Toronto back in February, has become an historical feat that many are taking notice of. The Miami Heat currently have a 21 win game streak, higher than the last defending NBA Championship team to do so, which were the Boston Celtics back in 2009.  The Heat also hold the third longest streak record behind the Houston Rockets' 22 win game streak in 2008, and the Los Angeles Lakers' 33 win game streak in 1972. Tomorrow, the Heat will face the Toronto Raptors at 1pm on Sun Sports and Monday against the Boston Celtics, who aren't impressed with their streak...or so Paul Pierce believes. Well, I'm not one to brag and such sometimes but the Heat have already eclipsed the Celtics' streak by 2 games, not that it wouldn't mean anything but it's something to point out at the least. Just how far will this streak go, is entirely up to the Heat. They control their own destiny now that they're on top of the Eastern Conference and the NBA as far as overall records go. For homework, watch the Heat take on the Raptors tomorrow at 1 on Sun Sports and on Monday against the Celtics at 8. I'm Deron Butler telling you to streak...with your clothes on.
