The Miami Heat were the team to beat when LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh teamed up in the early 2010s.
They won two NBA championships in four trips to the NBA Finals, and while some thought they would never go back to the mountaintop after that era, it didn’t take long before they did.
With two NBA Finals appearances in four seasons, Jimmy Butler is determined to get his team its fourth championship.
That’s why it wasn’t much of a surprise to see him vow that this will be the year they finally get over the hump and get the job done once and for all
Of course, it was kind of difficult to take him seriously in that fake emo look, but Butler has usually been a man of his word.
However, the Heat may find it very complicated to find the same success they found last season, as they lost two key rotation pieces in Max Strus and Gabe Vincent.
They cleared some salary space in hopes of being able to land Damian Lillard, but to no avail.
They also couldn’t get Jrue Holiday, and it seems like Pat Riley has lost all of his pull and his magic in the league.
Erik Spoelstra has made the most of hidden gems and has made a living out of turning undrafted players into legit rotation-caliber guys, but there will be several new faces in South Beach, and they might still be one piece away from winning it all.
