Throughout their history, the Miami Heat have been blessed with some of the greatest individual talents in NBA history. That talent has helped them win three NBA championships and become recognized as one of the best organizations to play basketball.

Even though Miami is a popular destination for stars, not all players are well-equipped to handle what it takes to be a member of the Miami Heat.

The Heat hold themselves to a certain standard and not everyone can live up to them. That being said, there have been many players who have met or even exceeded that standard.

Let’s imagine what it would be like to build a team from all the best players ever to suit up in South Beach. For this starting lineup, two guards, two forwards, and a center will be chosen.

This lineup was built based on individual skill and how well the players would play together.
