The New Beast in the East

10 years ago, the Miami Heat organization changed forever. They got one of the best basketball players in the world if not the best, LeBron James. LeBron James would change their organization forever, and bring them home 2 NBA championships in the years 2012 and 2013 against the Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs. After a few years in Miami, LeBron James would return home and get traded back to the Cleveland Cavaliers, which was the team he left before he went to the Miami Heat. 

Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh, who were LeBron’s teammates, would also deal with injuries and end up leaving Miami as well. So the only thing left for Miami to do at this point is to rebuild their team for the next 10 or so year. They will definitely not have great records for the next upcoming seasons. But they would surprise the whole world after what they have done this past season. 

 This past 2019-2020 season, they made a playoff run that would never be forgotten; Jimmy Butler was the leader of this Miami Heat team and they would have never made this run without him. Also ,Tyler Herro and Duncan Robinson had a huge part of the run in this season’s playoffs. They were deadly from shooting at the 3 point line in the playoffs and they are also two very young players in the league. They have great potential and they are scoring machines on the floor. 

The future of the Miami Heat is bright and they are a hard working team. This upcoming season, sources such as ESPN and other top sources state, Miami’s top target right now is to get Giannis Antetokoumpo. Giannis, who was last year’s MVP and is an all around unstoppable player when he has the ball in his hands. If the Miami Heat trade for Giannis Antetokoumpo and if they play hard every single game of next season, they will be one of the best teams in the NBA. They also have a great point guard named Goran Dragic, who is a great playmaker and floor general while he is on the court. Their starting lineup could be really deadly next year if the Miami Heat add Giannis Antetokoumpo. 

The future for the Miami Heat is bright. The sky’s the limit for them, they have great leaders on the floor at all times such as Jimmy butler and if they add Giannis Antetokoumpo. They would be an unbelievable team with great leadership and supported by young, future stars such as Tyler Herro and Duncan Robinson. The future of the Miami Heat is crazy, it is so exciting to see what the future holds for them and everyone will see what they can do in the upcoming season’s.
