          The Miami Heat have turned their season around after having a 1-4 start. After losing four straight, the Heat made adjustments to make sure their season doesn't plummet so soon. Miami Heat head coach, Erik Spoelstra, made a huge change in the starting lineup putting Haywood Highsmith at the starting Power Forward spot. Highsmith has shown significant offensive improvements compared to last season and he has blended well with the rest of the starting unit.            The Heat would have their first game of the new NBA In-Season Tournament against the Washington Wizards and would come out on top (Heat 121, Wizards 114). Tyler Herro had a great game scoring 24 points shooting 9 of 17 from the field (53%) and 4 for 7 from 3-point range (57%), 10 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 steals. Miami's other great shooter, Duncan Robinson, was on fire scoring 18 points shooting 7 of 11 from the field (64%) and 4 for 8 from 3-point range (50%), 1 rebound, 6 assists and a steal. The Heat g

          If you are a true Miami Heat fan then you know much about the Heat legend Udonis Haslem. Back in 2002 Haslem went undrafted and would play a year overseas but would make his way back not only to the NBA but back to his city. Haslem would sign a 2-year deal with the Miami Heat and alongside him joined the fifth overall pick in the 2003 NBA draft Dwyane Wade. Haslem left a great impression on the Heat organization with his toughness and doing the dirty work on the court.            In 2006, Haslem played a major role in the Miami Heat's run to the NBA Finals and helping bring back Miami its first NBA championship against the Dallas Mavericks. While it was Dwyane Wade who carried the team offensively, Haslem was given the biggest assignment, guarding Dirk Nowitzki. Nowitzki was one of the top Power Forwards in the league and arguably one of the greatest Power Forwards ever. In the 2006 Finals Nowitzki shot only 31% from the field when being guarded by Udonis Haslem. Given th

          Any time LeBron James comes back down to Miami it's a must-see game. LeBron spent four years of his NBA career in Miami in what is famously known as the "Big Three" era. During his time in Miami, LeBron James went to the NBA Finals four straight times, won two NBA championships, two Finals MVPs and two regular season MVPs. The case could be made that LeBron was at his peak when he was in Miami. The 38-year old Laker forward did not disappoint and continues to show his greatness.            The Lakers are coming off a lost in Orlando against the Magic and the Heat are coming off a win against their in-season tournament match up, the Washington Wizards. It's big games like this that you see more out of Jimmy Butler. In this game against the Lakers we saw Butler, who isn't known to shoot so many threes, go 3 for 4 from 3-point range (75%). Overall Butler scored 28 points shooting 9 of 15 from the field (60%) and playing great defense like he usually does.
