Last season had its fair share of disappointment as things didn’t start off the way the Miami Heat wished it would have. Midseason approached and Heat Nation was divided. Should they push for the playoffs or should their focus be more geared towards the lottery?
Instead, the Heat finished in no man’s land. They just missed the playoffs, while finishing with a well enough record that the chances of landing a lottery pick are slim.
The middle of the season split the fan base even more, because of the Jimmy Butler trade that never happened.
