Heat’s only remaining adjustments may be the ones Erik Spoelstra won’t make

Michael Saenz of All U Can Heat argues that Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra must make difficult lineup changes following a disappointing 3-6 start to the season. The writer contends that previous tactical adjustments, such as staggering Bam Adebayo's and Giannis Antetokounmpo's minutes and tweaking offensive schemes, have failed to produce positive results.

According to the opinion piece, Spoelstra should consider benching Andrew Wiggins and removing Tim Hardaway Jr. from the primary rotation due to poor two-way production. While acknowledging that Spoelstra notoriously prefers allowing veterans to play through early-season struggles, Saenz asserts that replacing underperforming players is necessary to reward effort.
