Miami Heat: Culture Is Literally Why They Are, Mostly, Always Competitive

The ability to adapt to whatever happens from moment to moment or instance to instance is a superpower that not all teams, players, and coaches have. In one recent NBA Playoffs type giant mistake-prone team of an example, just look at the Minnesota Timberwolves.

With the best player on the court on their team, Anthony Edwards, and with many opportunities to win games and the series, they proceeded to do the exact same things in almost every game of the series.

They would end up losing the series too. It’s really that simple.

Failure to adapt or address things that got you beat will get you beat. Every single time.

That’s not what Miami does. Miami Heat Culture is being able to learn from the mistakes you made, at any point or given time of a contest, series, or season to ensure that those same mistakes aren’t the ones to kill you or your team in the end.

Now, they just have to figure out how to be that same way with Joel Embiid, possibly, going for this Philly team. You can have faith that they will though.
