10. Miami Heat (28-21)

The Miami Heat are playing fairly good basketball at the moment, despite a few head-scratching defeats at the hands of the Brooklyn Nets and Sacramento Kings. Save for those two games, the Heat are looking mightily impressive despite their mightily un-impressive roster.

The big question for the Heat over the next few days is whether or not they want to seriously entertain the idea of moving Hassan Whiteside. Hassan is one of the most frustrating players in the NBA, with his peaks being extremely high and his lows being downright laughable.

Whiteside is Miami’s best trade asset on the roster, and would likely bring back a good return. However, is Miami ready for such a move? They should be.
