2008-2009 Miami Heat NBA Preview:
The Miami Heat are easily one of the most exciting teams to watch in the NBA today. Dwayne Wade, who averaged over 17 points per 18 minutes of play for Team USA during the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics, will be returning to the Heat in proper form. With an NBA title under their belt from 2006, the future looks bright for the team. Fans will fill the American Airlines Arena to see how the Heat bounce back from last year's dissapointing season, and whether the team will make a run for the top of the Eastern Conference and another shot at an NBA Championship.

MIAMI HEAT EXPERIENCE:
Founded in 1988 during the NBA expansion boom, the Miami Heat play home games in the AmericanAirlines Arena in Miami, Florida. The 20,000 plus seat arena was built as a result of the Miami’s success in 1998-99. Attending a game at AAA is a rare experience. The arena features a unique scoreboard, which changes color depending on atmospheric conditions and the Heat’s home fans famously wear white in support of the team.
Though the Heat's first year was rather unproductive, the team was building and rebuilding consistently through the 1990's, vying for players who could help take them to the NBA Finals. A plague of injuries hampered the team through the early '90's, but in 1993-94, the team posted its first winning franchise record. In 1995, with the addition of Alonzo Mourning, the Heat was on a road to the playoffs. However, they could not hold off the mighty Chicago Bulls, who were dominating the decade in the NBA. From 1995 to their Championship bid in 2006, the team would post mostly winning records (with the exception of a slump in 2001-2003), and would rebuild to a national contender for the late 2000's.
The Miami Heat are in the Southeast Division of the Eastern Conference of the National Basketball Association (NBA). The team has consistently contended for tops of that conference, ultimately winning the title of NBA Champions in 2006. Buy Miami Heat tickets and watch the team fight for another NBA title!
