The Suns can take notes from the recent success of the Miami Heat

The Miami Heat are on the precipice of playing in their second NBA Finals in four years, and were a Jimmy Butler made three-pointer away from the Finals last season. How they got there is quite the interesting story, and it is one that the Phoenix Suns can learn from.

There are multiple factors as to why the Heat have had success. It begins with the abilities, strategies, ability to motivate, and overall basketball IQ of their head coach, Erik Spoelstra. When he first became a head coach during the LeBron/Dwyane Wade/Chris Bosh era, many thought that he was just a placeholder.
