NBA suits may want to wait a bit before printing those Golden State Warriors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers NBA Finals tickets most fans have been predicting all season. Latin Post introduces its list of Top 5 Teams in the 2016 NBA Playoffs so far.
The NBA trade deadline is just a couple of days away and Dwight Howard of the Houston Rockets is one of the most talked-about names in the market right now. According to Frank Isola of the New York Daily News, the Rockets are discussing a possible deal to send Howard to the Miami Heat for Hassan Whiteside and other players.
Dwight Howard is reportedly unhappy in Houston because of Rockets superstar James Harden. And according to NBA analyst Chris Sheridan, the former All-Star could be traded before the deadline in February.
Miami Heat president Pat Riley said that the Miami Heat will be championship contenders this upcoming season. They have a solid starting five with Goran Dragic and Dwyane Wade in the backcourt and Luol Deng, Chris Bosh, and Hassan Whiteside upfront.
The Miami Heat are looking to bounce back from a disappointing season and made several moves to improve their roster this summer. But in 2016, the Heat are expected to be among the teams who will have a good chance to land big-name free agents on the market.
The Heat has kept quiet this free agency, but their acquisitions of veterans like Amare Stoudemire and Gerald Green show that they are rebuilding their supporting unit.
Hassan Whiteside already asked for his rating to be updated from a 59 to a 77 in "NBA 2K15" in January. Now, the rising former D-League player is reaching out to the video game again in the hopes of getting his ratings increased.
