Miami Heat: If Victor Oladipo Is Just 65 Percent Of ‘Him’, The East May Be A Wrap

Assigned to Sioux Falls to get some five on five work in, Oladipo looks to be closer to real NBA action than he isn’t. While, again, that’s a great thing for the Miami Heat and those that support them, that isn’t so great for the entirety of the opposition.

The Miami Heat have been one of the best teams in the league and the best team in the East this season with all of their irregularities, issues, and absences. Can you imagine what they can be if they get back just a semi-decent Oladipo?

For every modicum above 65-70 percent of his old self that Oladipo is, the Miami Heat go up a whole other click per percentage point. It’s really that serious.

The Miami Heat have been really good thus far this season. Yes, this is true.

However, at full strength and the absolute complete peak of their powers, they have the opportunity to be downright diabolical and dare it to be said—great.

Only time will tell and the quicker they can get this guy back in the lineup (all of their pieces, really), the better off they’ll be.
