10. Miami Heat
Key Addition(s): Luol Deng, Josh McRoberts, Shabazz Napier
Key Loss: LeBron James, Ray Allen
It’s nearly impossible to replace the best player on the planet in LeBron James. But Pat Riley and the Heat did the best they could to recover from a nearly deathly blow, via a letter, from The King. Miami brings back Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade and replaces LeBron with Deng, sprinkle in a few young pieces and add a McBob.
The Heat expectations will significantly drop off, but if Bosh and Wade can somewhat provide the necessarily leadership — and offensive fire power — this squad has an opportunity to make some noise during the regular season, and possibly the postseason.
