⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tom's Title Tiers #22
Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat are in the zone.
The Miami Heat didn’t land a third star at the deadline, lost Kyle Lowry and saw Terry Rozier go down with an injury shortly after arriving on Miami’s shores.
And yet: they’re the hottest team in the East. Have they done enough to move up my board?
Welcome to another edition of Tom’s Title Tiers. A reminder: This is my subjective list based largely on objective data. This is not a pure, analytical ranking. You’re here because you want to know what I think, to get inside my brain a little bit. Consider this a weekly report of what I see on film; what I glean from the numbers; what I hear on the phone; what I read in the news; what I feel.
This week’s featured squad: the Miami Heat.
Here’s a quick rundown of each tier.
