Today the Miami Heat’s NBA season came to a dismal close with the worst winning percentage in the league at 15 wins and 67 losses. This gives them the worst record since Atlanta’s 13-69 in in 2004/05 and ties the franchise’s all-time worst season way back in 1988/89 - which also happened to be the team’s first year.

The reason this is interesting is that two years ago the Heat won the NBA Finals in convincing fashion and last year made the Playoffs and (in the Championship year) Dwayne Wade was playing better basketball than anyone has since Michael Jordan. Since then Wade has been plagued by injuries (playing not much over half of the time) and his supporting cast has all but disappeared - Shaq has gone to Phoenix, Alonzo Mourning’s career is over, Udonis Haslem is injured and Antoine Walker and Gary Payton are also gone.

Not much to say really except “ouch”. It’s rare to see the best become the worst so quickly; unless of course you’ve been following the Warriors over the last 10 years.
