Locked On Heat - Daily Podcast On The Miami Heat

HEAT's bold moves: Rozier's resurgence, Jaquez trade, and All-Star snubs? Unpacking Miami's season predictions. In this episode of Locked on Heat, Wes Goldberg and David Ramil break down their bold 2025 Miami Heat predictions — from potential Tyler Herro trades to Jaime Jaquez Jr. being moved midseason, and even why Bam Adebayo might miss the All-Star Game despite another strong year. The duo debates whether Terry Rozier’s bounce-back could surprise fans, why Norm Powell and Davion Mitchell could shoot 40% from three, and if Miami’s depth can still make them contenders in a wide-open East. Wes and David, both credentialed Heat reporters, bring insider insight and humor as they forecast what’s next for this unpredictable roster.
