Miami Heat vs New York Knicks: Storylines

The Miami Heat are slowly getting back to full strength after struggling with injuries and Covid-19. However, they’re still missing a key piece in Goran Dragic, while Tyler Herro looks far from 100%. Then again, you know Erik Spoelstra, Pat Riley, and Jimmy Butler make no excuses. They must get the job done.

The New York Knicks just got themselves a fine scoring punch off the bench, as they’ve recently traded for Derrick Rose, who’ll play for Thibodeau again after their stints in Chicago and Minnesota. Notably, he’ll have to coexist with standout rookie Immanuel Quickely off the bench, which could mess with his development.
