We have just completed the Miami HEATs second full decade of NBA adventures. The 1990s brought you Pat Riley and Micky Arison, Alonzo Mourning and Tim Hardaway; HEAT vs. Knicks; joy and heartbreak.
The last 10 years, from 2000 thru 2009, was a journey like no other. Pat Riley passing the coaching torch to Stan Van Gundy and then back again for a Hall of Fame encore. The drafting and developing of the greatest talent in franchise history, Dwyane Wade; then pairing him with Shaquille ONeal for two straight Conference Final appearances and the ultimate prize of the 2006 NBA Championship. It truly was a journey like no other and a memory to last a lifetime.
Here is my All-Decade HEAT Team:
