The Miami Heat have been at the top of the NBA's mountaintop for much of the last decade. Despite their success in the last 10 years, they haven't hoisted the Larry O'brien trophy since 2013.

Miami has been on the hunt for its next NBA title. They've gone through deep playoff runs, with stars Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo, and Tyler Herro leading the way. Despite their playoff success, all there is to show is two Eastern Conference Finals trophies since 2020.

NBA fans have put much of the blame on general manager Pat Riley. The longtime basketball guru has been trending throughout various social media platforms since the Heat's loss to the Boston Celtics in the first round of the 2024 NBA Playoffs.

Some individuals are pointing toward the excuses that Riley and the Heat can work through, while others are speaking on the roster that Riley has built in Miami.
