Getting Giannis Antetokounmpo is a huge triumph for the Miami Heat and team president Pat Riley. They finally have the superstar they have wanted for a long time, and he will be playing in the same frontcourt as mainstay center Bam Adebayo.
While this is an alluring team because of its star power, there might be some question marks surrounding the Heat. They have a strong, talented team with Giannis on board, but there might be some issues with the overall fit.
Former Atlanta Hawks mainstay and All-Defensive team member Josh Smith is excited for the Heat like most people. However, he does have some concerns when it comes to the overall fit with Giannis joining the team this offseason.
For the longest time, the model for succeeding with Giannis has been clear since early in his career with the Milwaukee Bucks, and that is surrounding him with shooters. That is Smith's reasoning because the Heat do not have shooters like that, so they might struggle offensively.
