The Miami Heat made several key moves this offseason. They re-signed players, made new additions, and made a draft selection, but who exactly will start?
The Miami Heat decided to pretty much run it back with the team that was just two wins away from winning a fourth championship. However, with some changes made and potential improvement from others, the starting lineup may be slightly different.
Last season, the Heat’s most-used lineup and one that played a total of 488 minutes together was Kendrick Nunn, Duncan Robinson, Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo, and Meyers Leonard. In those minutes, the team posted a 12.3 net rating with a 119.1 offensive rating.
This was working throughout the season, but come playoff time, adjustments had to be made.
The Heat this season kept almost the same roster except for a few guys. They wound up replacing Jae Crowder and Derrick Jones Jr with Moe Harkless and Avery Bradley.
Although the team is pretty much the same, the starting line-up may be slightly different this season compared to what we saw last regular season and in the playoffs.
There are only two definite locks and you most likely know who they are already, but the other three spots are all up for grabs.
