3 Reasons Trevor Ariza Great For Miami Heat: Defensive Ability
The Miami Heat are built on a few things. That would be grit, hustle, hard work, and a willingness to sell out for the team, first and foremost above all.
Defensive Ability
Something else they are known for and that goes right along with the rest of those things is defense. Shots may fall and then they may not, but if a team hangs their hat on beating you by not allowing you to score, they always have a chance.
Throw in a little Jimmy Butler to that mix and that’s what always gives Miami a chance. They play defense and will hit timely shots.
Trevor Ariza may not be the defender he used to be, but he’s been such a high-level defender throughout his career that even his declined version is a lot better than most. It’s definitely good enough to be a welcomed addition and upgrade to this Miami Heat team.
That’s the first reason why Trevor Ariza would be a great addition to the Miami Heat if they can, somehow, pry him away from Oklahoma City.
