But the Heat additionally would take exception, noting that they’ve 16 underneath contract, when together with their two-way gamers, with Jamal Cain and Dru Smith displaying through the preseason a capability to contribute. Again, it’s all about staying under the posh tax. And the Heat nonetheless are positioned to have the ability to fill out the complete roster for the playoffs.
