The Miami HEAT will always play with heart and they pride themselves on defense so much that HEAT players giving up their bodies on a loose ball, diving on the floor or taking a charge is not inexcusable for them. They will hunt for that steal, jump as high as they can for that block or for that rebound and will have with them every time they step on the court the everlasting faith that they know that they will win if they believe it.

This game was on January 15, 2024.

Miami HEAT Roster:

• Jimmy Butler
• Bam Adebayo
• Tyler Herro
• Caleb Martin
• Kyle Lowry
• Nikola Jović
• Josh Richardson
• Duncan Robinson
• Jaime Jaquez Jr.
• Kevin Love
• Cole Swider
• R.J. Hampton
• Thomas Bryant
• Haywood Highsmith
• Orlando Robinson
• Jamal Cain
• Dru Smith

The best coach that has ever lived (in my opinion) and the head coach of the Miami HEAT is Erik Spoelstra.
