The Miami Heat are probably feeling defeated right now at the start of the NBA offseason. They shouldn’t be.
Yes, in the literal sense, they were defeated. The Denver Nuggets are officially the NBA champions. History will remember Miami as the second-best team in the NBA this season.
For this squad, that’s an impressive place to land. The Heat had one of the worst offenses in the NBA this season.
For them to advance to the NBA Finals should be celebrated as a remarkable achievement.
Don’t expect them to rest on their laurels. The Heat seldom do. If they make a major acquisition this summer, nobody should be surprised.
Could that acquisition be Kyrie Irving of the Dallas Mavericks?
