Episode notes
Heat's Depth-Powered Early Surge
- The Miami Heat have become an early-season surprise by maximizing role players and pushing tempo under Erik Spoelstra.
- Depth and an egalitarian offense let them absorb injuries and overperform in a wide-open East.

- The Timberwolves face a roster puzzle: glaring guard needs but few tradable assets and second-apron financial limits.
- Any realistic upgrade likely forces Minnesota to trade a core piece, creating defensive or identity risks.

- The Warriors' season shows the toll of aging veterans and condensed schedules on depth and durability.
- Their defense remains solid, but offense drops sharply when Stephen Curry is off the floor.
