Miami Heat

PREDICTED FINISH: 14th   42-40
ACTUAL FINISH       : 16th   41-41

What I got right: I did a fine job of assessing the rapidly changing roster of the Miami Heat.  I pointed out the raw adversity of the loss of Wade to free agency, and pointed to the gain of Dion Waiters as a solid pickup.  I even pointed to the team offense as the key to success, and the team actually improved by 3.2 points per game.

What I got wrong: I did a great job of the analysis. Nearly all projections fell close enough to the performance.
