The Miami Heat have been on a mini-tear recently, over their last five contests to be specific and things have really begun to look up. Coincidentally enough or not, the Miami Heat’s recent string of success comes amidst their trade deadline deals.

Bringing aboard Victor Oladipo, Trevor Ariza, and Nemanja Bjelica, the Miami Heat have seen themselves become a team of new life since those arrivals. While Bjelica hasn’t played a ton, he’s made an impact during his time, while Ariza and Oladipo have made quite the impacts as they’ve transitioned right into the starting lineup for what can only be called a near-perfect fit, at worst.

Here’s the thing though, the Miami Heat haven’t even begun to see their peak yet. While they’ve been dazzling across their last five, as mentioned and albeit the competition, they still have a ways that they can go when it comes to just how good they can be.

If they can somehow reach that maximum potential, then the sky is the limit. What are the things that they need  to adjust then?
