The Miami Heat have mostly found their way back from a turbulent start that had them shouldering twice as many losses (12) as wins (six) in late January.
But being back at square one with a near-.500 record isn't exactly where this club wanted to be on the heels of last season's surprise NBA Finals trip.
For the Heat to re-ignite their championship hopes, this roster needs reinforcing ahead of the March 25 trade deadline. Pat Riley and Co. can decide whether a whale hunt is needed or if they can just get a replacement for Jae Crowder, but something must be done to get this club back into contention.
