'06-'07 Previews: Miami Heat

This is part of my series of articles previewing all 30 NBA teams and the upcoming season.

The defending champions made no significant moves. None. No draft picks, no free-agent signings, they really are taking the "if it's not broken, don't fix it" philosophy to a new level here. With every major contender in the NBA, both in the East and West, making some changes, it'll be hard for them to return.

Dwayne Wade is a top-5 player in the NBA... Shaq is still the most dominating force in the league. But what about the fire of Antoine Walker? or Gary Payton? Are they still hungry?

I think they still come out of the East... I just don't see them winning another championship with all the West contenders improving their rosters.
