The Miami Heat's win over the Houston Rockets Monday night offset a lackluster road trip.

Tyler Herro had a nine-point performance in the Friday night loss to the Phoenix Suns, so what better way to bounce back than against the team he's had the most offensive production with? Herro continued his star performances against the Rockets, with the latest being a 28-point game Monday night.

He went back to being the center of Heat fans' praise after waves of criticism on Friday.

"He will never silence those that have already decided," one user said. "They just wait for him to have an off night and say, 'See, I told you.'"

Right alongside Herro was Bam Adebayo with a 22-point double-double. The Heat had four other players in double figures scoring: Kevin Love, Josh Richardson, Duncan Robinson, and Jaime Jaquez Jr.

Nikola Jovic only had six points, but logged career highs in assists, steals and blocks. Fans continue to call for him to get quality time in the lineup. They also called out StatMuse for using Nikola Jokic’s graphic to talk about Jovic.

And of course, you know the social media team was going to have some jokes to engage the audience and clown their opponent. The Heat Twitter page posted a clip from Katt Williams’ conversation with Shannon Sharpe, which is going viral for the amount of celebrities he’s called out.

The Heat play the Oklahoma City Thunder (24-11) Wednesday night.
