Thunder take on new incarnation of Miami Heat

Miami has re-tooled, and is ready for another run.

This feels like the first year the Heat have really come into their own post-LeBron. With James departure last year, the Heat had to do a significant amount of retooling. That definitely happened, as the Heat added Goran Dragic and Luol Deng to their roster. Dragic joined the Heat mid-season though, so it never felt like the team got a real chance to gel.

At their peak, both Dragic and Deng were borderline All-Stars. In a sense, those two players split LeBron's responsibilities into two positions.
