The Miami Heat, having lost the finals, continue their strengthening efforts. Pat Riley's flames of revenge were doused by a series of cold rains, leaving smokes rising everywhere. He finally calmed down, viewing team building and the championship pursuit with a more peaceful mindset.
The Heat signed John Salley, who did not renew with the Suns, to bolster their clumsy power forward position, providing greater support for Olajuwon.
Of course, more importantly, it's about Drexler's condition. Together with Olajuwon, they remain strong contenders for the championship in the next three years.
The reason the Phoenix Suns let go of John Salley is that they still wanted to acquire a true big center, rather than a player who swings between the power forward and center positions.
They got someone to satisfy their wish—Robert Parish.
After the 1992-1993 season, Kevin McHale officially retired, leaving only one of Boston's former frontcourt tridents.
