Miami Heat Mailbag: I thought the Heat were supposed to be tanking edition

I never thought this would happen this season. The Miami Heat have won seven-straight games, and fans are freaking out. A win against the Golden State Warriors went from a memory fans could hold on to as this team continued to plummet into the top of the draft lottery to something that galvanized the team. Dion Waiters and Goran Dragic are playing like one of the best backcourts in the Eastern Conference, and the Heat are becoming less and less reliant on Hassan Whiteside (and that’s a good thing). If you were on the fence about whether or not the Heat should go Full Tank Mode, this recent bout of winning brought out your true feelings.
