    There’s a term in the NBA used when a shooter suddenly gets into a groove and seemingly can’t miss. As the player heats up, so does their confidence, and they’ll often start taking — and making — ridiculous shots from weird angles or, often, long distance. When that happens, those shots are called a “heat check.” For Cleveland Cavaliers All-Star Kevin Love, though, he’s not the only one in the hou...2016
