After the painful and exhausting NBA finals from just two months ago, the championship runners-up Miami Heat are ready to show that last season wasn’t a fluke. Already severe underdogs to the Los Angeles Lakers, the Heat were set back by injuries and unable to play at their full potential, so they came short against Lebron James and Anthony Davis.
With a healthy roster and some luck, the 2020-21 season is another title run. Jimmy Butler went from star to near-superstar last season and is fully capable of leading the team and taking the big shots. Paired with the healthy, multi-talented Bam Adebayo who is looking to notch up his play again this season, the Miami Heat should be considered one of the favorites to come out of the East even if they’re being overlooked again.
The 2020-21 Miami Heat season schedule
However, the 2020-21 season doesn’t just rely on Butler and Adebayo. The Heat have one of the strongest rosters from 1-7. The 35 year old Goran Dragic was the Heat’s leading scorer throughout much of their playoff run, but also had an unfortunate injury in game one of the finals. That was a huge blow to their backcourt, but he’s back and the Dragon is always ready. Last year’s rookies Tyler Herro and Kendrick Nunn, along with second year player Duncan Robinson, stepped up and they delivered. You can count on the Heat being one of the top teams this season.
