Considering LeBron James Among Miami Heat GOATs
The Miami Heat have an illustrious history, though they are one of the youngest teams in the entire NBA. When you look at teams by birth year, they are the sixth youngest team behind New Orleans (2002), Toronto (1995), Memphis (1995), Orlando (1989), and Minnesota (1989).
However, when you go to rank the titles won by each franchise, the Miami Heat sit in a three-way tie for sixth place at three titles to their name. That just speaks to the rich nature of their history, though it isn’t much of it by some standards.
