Why is Nobody Talking About the Miami Heat?? | HHT 70

On the 70th episode of Hot Hand Theory, Geoff and XJ break down how Bam Adebayo, Norman Powell, Erik Spoelstra, Tyler Herro, and the Miami Heat are quietly becoming the Eastern Conference's biggest problem—and why their elite defense paired with an evolving Noah LaRoche offense makes them far more dangerous than anyone realizes. The duo dives into the film and data to show how the Heat are winning with the revolutionary LaRoche system that removes traditional screens to maximize driving lanes and spacing. But even more importantly, they're third in the NBA defensively, even while running one of the fastest paces in basketball. We explore why Bam Adebayo has made the leap from all-star to all-NBA/fringe MVP candidate (career-high three-point volume at 37%, paired with his best defensive season ever), why Norman Powell is playing at an all-star level at 32 years old, and how Erik Spoelstra's willingness to completely reinvent his offensive philosophy mid-career sets him apart as arguably the NBA's best coach. Plus: how Tyler Hero's return will determine if the Heat are just a tough out or legitimate championship contenders. We break down what makes the Heat's low-turnover, high-pace approach so effective, why their depth (Dru Smith, Kel'el Ware, Nikola Jovic, Davion Mitchell) gives them staying power, and whether they should make a move for someone like Lauri Markkanen to capitalize on the East's wide-open window. We cover: 🔹 Bam's leap: 6 threes per 75 at 37%, best defensive season, all-NBA level play 🔹 The LaRoche system: How the real goal of removing screens is to simultaneously maximize space and driving lanes 🔹 Why Erik Spoelstra is the NBA's best coach: Reinventing offensive philosophy after years of success 🔹 Norman Powell's all-star season at 32: Is this sustainable through the playoffs? 🔹 Tyler Hero's return: Will he be additive to Bam and Powell or disrupt their chemistry? 🔹 The depth advantage: Dru Smith leading the league in steal percentage, Kel'el Ware's upside, shooting around the core 🔹 Should the Heat trade for Lauri Markkanen? Weighing standing pat vs. going all-in on an open Eastern Conference 🔹 Can Bam and Ware play together long-term, or does Miami have a center decision to make? 💬 Let us know in the comments: Should the Heat make a move at the deadline, or is this core enough to win the East?
