Well the preseason ends without a feel-good ending, as the Miami Heat were trounced by the new-look Philadelphia 76ers, 119-95 in Kansas City, Missouri.
Goran Dragic, Rodney McGruder, Josh Richardson, Okaro White were out, leaving Dion Waiters, DeAndre Liggins, Wayne Ellington, Kelly Olynyk, and Hassan Whiteside as the starters facing J.J. Redick, Robert Covington, Jerryd Bayless, Ben Simmons, and Joel Embiid. The 76ers quickly proved they are not the same sad lottery team from last season as they jumped out to a 19-10 lead.
