The Miami Heat are heading into an intriguing little stretch for them in the coming days. Though it’s the final little burst at the end of the season as teams get set for the playoffs, there is also the seeding race to think about in it all.

Unlike a lot of other years though, the NBA’s Eastern Conference is the more dominant one in the league right now.

In order to continue to elevate to the top of this heap, the Miami Heat will have to continue to be themselves.

That includes ball and man movement, Kyle Lowry’s pace, Jimmy Butler‘s brute force, Tyler Herro‘s electric microwave ability off the bench, Bam Adebayo‘s continued burgeoning development, and at least, decent, long-ranged shooting powered by guys like Lowry, Duncan Robinson, Gabe Vincent, Max Strus, and P.J. Tucker.

That’s not all though. There’s more that’ll need to be done.
