The Baseline: Autopsy Reports Heat and Mavs
Midway through the first round of the NBA playoffs, we check on the fallen teams that couldn’t make the league’s top 16. On this week’s autopsy report we check in on Heat and Mavs
Miami Heat
- As Dwyane Wade rides off into the Miami sunset he leaves a team with more questions than answers.
- Who is the team’s lead player amongst Josh Richardson, Dion Waiters, Justise Winslow, Hassan Whiteside and Goran Dragic?
- Is Pat Riley likely to offload some contracts and bring in a big name guy?
Dallas Mavs
-
- Dirk Nowitzki leaves the game as Mr. Mav and a sure-fire hall of fame player.
- Will the combo of Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis lead the team back to prominence in the West?
- Is Kemba Walker an ideal fit…what other pieces does the team need?
