NBA Trade Deadline: What has Pat Riley got up his sleeve?

The NBA trade deadline is looming. On February 8th, by 3pm, Miami Heat fans will find out what cards Pat Riley has been holding. This deadline was supposed to be an active one for the Heat. Pat had assembled trade chips in the offseason and it looked like the market was going to be flooded with whales. Then all of a sudden the Heat were winning, peaking at 29-23, and they seemed to shift focus, opting to stand pat (pardon the pun). But now the Heat are losing again and – boom – talk of Hassan Whiteside being traded came up, which was immediately walked back.
