Klay Thompson is a four-time champion from his stint with the Golden State Warriors. With that kind of success, it is normal to want more, and Thompson believes that it will come with the Miami Heat. He just joined the team, and he is already setting high expectations for himself and his teammates.
Considering the Heat are always a team to watch in terms of ****** le contention, this could be the year they fully come back to that status. For a few years now, they have been toiling away in mediocrity. Now, they have Giannis Antetokounmpo and Thompson joining the roster ahead of the big 2026-27 season.
For a long time, people have gotten used to the Heat being a successful team. Of course, Dwyane Wade is a big reason for that, as he was part of all three Heat championships. Since they last won in 2013, the Heat have been competing, but they have never taken the top spot on the podium.
They have been the runner-up three times since that last ****** le, in 2014, 2020, and 2023. It has been a tough few years for the Heat, especially since they had to go through the Play-In Tournament multiple times. They managed to do so successfully in 2023 by reaching the NBA Finals, but they still lost.
