As Dwayne Wade left and doctors announced that Chris Bosh is unfit to play, the Miami Heat now search for ways to make their franchise compete on the incoming NBA season.
Although they got the likes of Dion Waiters from the Oklahoma City Thunders, Wayne Ellington from the Brooklyn Nets and Derrick Williams from the New York Knicks, they will never fill the void left by Wade and Bosh (if ever) in the line-up.
Wade and Bosh, together with LeBron James, make the Heat team a formidable one for four years. The trio lead the Heat to four straight NBA Finals appearance and back-to-back championship from 2011 up to 2013 NBA seasons.
But now, James is with the Cavs, Wade went to Chicago and Bosh future is unclear. The Heat season is hanging in the balance. With few weeks left before the NBA season starts, the team is considering to trade Goran Dragic.
According to Parent Herald, the Heat is looking for trade option for Goran Dragic to have a great line-up this coming season. But fans reject the idea, saying the team must concentrate on the players rather than exploring for trade.
Fans are correct.
It is not the end of the world for the Heat. Dragic can still lead the team alongside center Hassan Whiteside, Tyler Johnson, Justise Winslow and newcomers Waiters, Ellington and Williams. An earlier report also says that Dragic and Whiteside found their chemistry during the offseason and it will be a big factor for the team.
On a separate report by YIBADA English, if the Heat intends to split with Dragic, they would choose Jahlil Okafor of the Philadelphia 76ers as his possible swap. The report also says that the Heat feel that Okafor is the perfect replacement for Chris Bosh.
Although Okafor is not an All-Star caliber, the young big man has the potential to become one and learn in Heat's system. This will also clear the Sixers frontcourt for having three centers on their rosters.
But for now, this is pure speculations and we have to wait for Miami's decision in the coming days.
