Philippines coaching legend Tim Cone will always cherish his time with Heat

This union was formed thanks to the 64-year-old Cone’s strong relationship with Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra, in part because of both tacticians’ connections to the Philippines.
Cone, who coaches the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA)’s most popular franchise Barangay Ginebra, is widely considered the “GOAT” for his massive achievements which dates back to his coaching debut in 1989 with the Alaska Aces.
