Why the Trade Benefits the Miami Heat
What a restart it was for the Miami Heat. They were able to have everything click at the right time and ride it all the way to the finals. Unfortunately, they suffered some injuries that hurt them against the Los Angeles Lakers. Goran Dragic is the biggest name to report here.
Dragic was forced to miss some games due to injury. Behind him, the depth was thin and it proved costly. The Heat still did not have enough to beat the Lakers regardless but you never want to go into a series unprepared.
Williams would provide that extra burst and depth off the bench in the backcourt. Also, the Lakers added Montrezl Harrel to join Anthony Davis. The Heat could afford to get bigger in the frontcourt.
This is all about winning titles for Miami so it is important to look at the best and see how you matchup. If the Heat does so, this trade could help in multiple ways at two different positions.
