The Miami Heat enter the New Year at 18-15 in the Eastern Conference. It’s been an up-and-down season, but they finished off 2025 strong with three-straight wins over the Atlanta Hawks, Indiana Pacers and Denver Nuggets, respectively.
It’s also been an up-and-down year. At times, it felt like this was five seasons blended into just 1-2. But as we recap the 2025 calendar year, which were the best games and individual performances?!
Here are my picks!
