Analysis
Miami moved aggressively into free agency and managed to lure Jimmy Butler from Philadelphia. The assault on the second star has not yet gone through, but the draft picks Nunn and Herro have impressed in the Summer League, moreover the heavy contract of Hassan Whiteside, since long time not aligned with the Heat program, has been finally unloaded. Other moves before the trade deadline are not excluded, but there is no reason to rush unnecessary actions.
Upward trend for 2019-20 where the Basket Maniacs predictive algorithm provides 2 more wins than the previous season.
Forecast 2019-20: 44-38
