Do the Miami Heat have enough to remain as a top-tier contender in the ever-improving Eastern Conference without making a trade for a major star? And can 'The Process' finally come full circle for the 76ers because the pressure is on this team like never before to deliver!
Ronan Gaine (@R_GaineNBA) & Chris Nambu (@ChirstianNambu) going Coast to Coast to discuss the Miami Heat, should they trade for Kevin Durant or Donovan Mitchell, are their main assets (Tyler Herro & Bam Adebayo) enough and how could those players improve if they stay in Miami. Does the team still have enough to compete atop the Eastern Conference or is a major trade the only way they will contend next season? Then a look at the Philadelphia 76ers, the importance of their off-season additions, how James Harden can take the team to the next level, without returning to Houston Harden. And can the team finally answer the call with pressure levels at an all-time high?
