2. Kevin Love contract

I'm admittedly nitpicking with Kevin Love's contract. Since Love arrived in Miami, he has been a great addition to the team on the court and in the locker room.

Love signed a two-year $7.8 million contract to return to the Heat. The contract as a whole isn't bad for a backup big, but Miami did not have a lot of money to spend and paying nearly $8 million for a guy who couldn't play in these past playoffs? It seems like too much if you ask me.

Still, Love will be a good mentor for first-round pick Kel'el Ware and has proven chemistry with Jimmy Butler in backup units.

Having Love as a mentor is optimal for any young big. I just wish the deal were cheaper since the Heat don't have much cap space left below the second tax apron after this summer.
