The 2024/25 season ended today (with a meaningless L). Miami finished with a 37-45 record, the team's worst since that first post-LBJ team in 2014/15. This season's 37-45 is the mirror opposite of 2023/24's 45-37, which also had been the franchise's average record every season since LeBron James went back to Cleveland. The 45-W decade of mediocrity also gave rise to the ".45's'" nickname bestowed by this here undersigned. With this season's record now factored in, the "Heat" average 11-year record drops to 44-38. For emphasis:
