Miami Heat: With P.J. Tucker Playing Like This, They Can Beat Anybody

He is also a very crucial part of the what the Miami Heat want to do.

That is what helps bring it all together. Here is how it breaks down though.

For the reasons of being as productive as he ever has, from a numbers and a raw performance standpoint, being as efficient as he ever has, and with this being his, most likely, title-contending team outside of the one where he helped win the title last year (though, again, not nearly as productive for them), you have to say that he his having his best year ever.

If it isn’t his best, it’s one of them, and there aren’t two that are better. That means it’s top-two, at the very worst.

Wherever it stacks up to the rest of his career and though you’re glad he’s saved his best for Miami, him continuing to do it is what’s important.

He should though, as that’s just how he’s built. And if he can maintain this level of play or close, the Heat should maintain their own high chances of contending for a title.
