How will Miami do next year?

How well will their season be next year?

Sorry for leaving out the dynasty option, but I'm not that optimistic [IMO, they'd be lucky to get out of the lotto next year]

They will be a mid to late lotto team IMO and they only get there if Wade and Marion can stay healthy all season.

Late lotto team

Maybe a bottom playoff team, can see it...

with the current roster (healthy), i'd say mid-to-late lotto as well

5-8 seed in the playoffs

The East is a joke. C'mon look at the Hawks record for the 8th seed.

4-8 Playoff team.. Wade has MVP type season

Wade could put up 40/10/10. If you get a 4-8 seed in the East, you won't be an MVP candidate. I think that's been established. You need 50+ wins.

Mid-to-high playoffs, and I'm pissed at the Heat for benching Marion.

They'll have a great nucleus next year, and they'll actually be trying. Don't underestimate Dwyane Wade either.

Edit: By the way, I predicted that they wouldn't make the playoffs at the beginning of last season, so I'm not a Heat fan, nor do I overrate them.

Edit #2: I meant mid-to-high playoff seed.

if they play their cards right, they could be a top 4-5 team in the east next year.

Rose
Wade
Marion
Haslem
MLE center

only problem is they have no bench

It all depends on Star Jones.

Low playoff team.

if they are healthy and keep marion, they can easily make the playoffs.

Depends on the draft....

They'll be better than people think.

Wade and Marion are great players, Zo might come back, Dorrell and Ricky Davis will thrive in an up-tempo offense and Quinn played well towards the end of last season.

Plus, if they get Beasley or Rose, they're going to be very good.

I think they make the playoffs next season.

That team would be deadly with a Derrick Rose..
