NBA Power Rankings: Can anyone beat the healthy Nets; Bubble Heat back?

10. Miami Heat

The Heat is looking more like the bubble version of themselves as of late and has won 11 of their last 15 games. Tyler Herro and Goran Dragic are beginning to play better and that has had a huge impact on this team as a whole.

Could the Heat go on another unlikely deep playoff run in the Eastern Conference? As long as Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo are healthy and playing at a high level, nothing is out of the question for this group.

9. Dallas Mavericks

Much like the Heat, the Dallas Mavericks will be one of the hottest teams heading into the postseason. Depending on their first-round playoff matchup, this is certainly a team that could emerge as a dark horse threat in the West.

How far can Luka Doncic carry the Mavs this year? It’s tough to say but this is a team that is playing its best basketball of the year at just the right time.
