KEY GAME INFORMATION
MIAMI: Goran Dragic will run the offense, as the Heat continue to evolve post-LeBron. He'll also benefit from the return of a pick-and-pop big in Chris Bosh . . . He's on the back nine of his career, but Dwyane Wade is still effective on the offensive end of the court. Durability is another issue . . . They have no need for Mario Chalmers with Dragic in town. Unfortunately, no one seems interested in trading for him . . . Sixth man Gerald Green adds firepower off the bench . . . If Chalmers is dealt, Tyler Johnson would step up as Dragic's primary back-up . . . James Ennis will be battling for a roster spot this fall . . . Josh Richardson is a good athlete with the versatile skill set to become a bench option down the line. Luol Deng will get another shot after a disappointing first season in Miami. He will have to settle for being a fourth or fifth option on offense again this season . . . Drafting in the lottery for the first time in years, the Heat landed an NBA-caliber athlete in Justice Winslow. Like all current NCAA players, he will be making a mammoth leap to NBA competition. He won't see consistent minutes unless he's knocking down shots . . . A knee injury wiped out just about all of Josh McRoberts' first season with the Heat. He'll have to be 100% healthy to earn back a rotation spot this season . . . Udonis Haslem continues to hang around as an effective back-up big man. He even talked about adding a three-point shot this summer. Chris Bosh might be slowed early in the year, but he'll be recovered from his blood-clot scare and should be comfortable in a stretch 4 role . . . Hassan Whiteside will anchor Miami's defense and in general clean up the glass . . . When Miami needs more offense than Whiteside offers, they can turn to Amar'e Stoudemire as a part-time player . . . Chris Andersen is basically a Birdman mascot.
TORONTO: He was never quite right health-wise late last year (which led to the poor conditioning head coach Dwane Casey cited this summer). Still, if healthy, Kyle Lowry can regain the borderline All-Star form he had two years ago . . . DeMar DeRozan makes a fine living attacking and getting to the line, but he has still yet to add a consistent three-point shot . . . Cory Joseph had quietly developed into one of the league's best back-up point guards in San Antonio, a lock down defender and efficient offensive player . . . Rookie Delon Wright does a lot of things well, but is most likely looking at a developmental year . . . Norman Powell is a big scoring guard who could be a solid bench piece down the line. The Raptors spent big to bring in DeMarre Carroll, a true 3-and-D wing . . . With Amir Johnson signing with Boston, Patrick Patterson has a chance to step into the starting lineup. He's fairly one-dimensional offensively, mostly camping out for corner threes . . . Toronto brought in competition for the power forward spot by signing Luis Scola. He's a mediocre at best defensively, but can take advantage of weaker defenders in the low-post . . . His development seems to have stalled, and Terrence Ross will try to reinvent himself as a sixth man . . . James Johnson has never been capable of handling big minutes, but he's a solid second-unit player who does everything well . . . Bruno Caboclo is still at least a year away from the rotation. Jonas Valanciunas has plenty of talent, but he doesn't do the little things well on offense (like screening) and is a defensive liability. It's why his minutes will continue to be limited . . . Bismack Biyombo is a zero on offense, but he's effective as a rim-protector and rebounder . . . Lucas Nogueira is still coming along as a long-term project.
PREVIEW
Heat-Raptors Preview
By TIM REYNOLDS AP Basketball Writer

MIAMI (AP) The exhilaration of winning Game 7s was short-lived for Toronto and Miami.

It's back-to-work time.

The Raptors play host to the Heat in Game 1 of their Eastern Conference semifinal matchup in Toronto on Tuesday night, a series that starts a mere two days after both teams survived elimination games on their respective home floors. And the objective for both teams on Monday would be finding ways to get ready for a new opponent while keeping the same edge that helped them eliminate their last one.

''I don't want them to be relaxed,'' Raptors coach Dwane Casey said. ''We're not done. We have a tough Miami team coming in.''

Toronto finally ended its 15-year postseason series victory drought by holding off Indiana in a Game 7 that looked like it was slipping away in the final minutes. Miami's trip to the second round was secured a bit more easily, as the Heat rolled past Charlotte by 33 points - the fifth-largest margin in Game 7 history.

And Raptors guard DeMar DeRozan knows what sort of challenge Miami will bring.

''Veteran team,'' DeRozan said. ''Lot of guys who have been in these positions. It's going to be another of these fought-hard series. We don't expect anything less.''

There's some irony in that Miami is heading to Toronto for the second round, since probably many thought the Heat season essentially ended there in February.

Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh - back in the city where his NBA career began - were representing the Heat in the All-Star Game at Toronto, but Bosh's weekend was derailed by what the team said was a calf strain. Turned out, it really was a blood clot that had been found, the malady ending Bosh's regular season at the All-Star break for the second straight season.

The Heat rallied without Bosh and wound up as the No. 3 seed in the East.

''You have to go through the fire together,'' Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. ''That's when you truly grow, when you face adversity together, you get to know each other for real. We've been through a lot this year. There have been a lot of emotions with that, but we are still standing.''

Here's some of what to know going into the series:

---

THE SERIES: Miami leads the all-time series between the clubs, 49-26. But Toronto has won five of the last six meetings, holding Miami to 47 percent shooting or less in each of those games. It's the first playoff matchup between the Heat and Raptors.

OH, BROTHER: Dorell Wright and Delon Wright faced off countless times in their lives, but never on the same NBA floor. That might change in this series. Dorell Wright rejoined the Heat as the regular season was ending, younger brother Delon Wright is a rookie with the Raptors. Dorell Wright wrote his brother a letter published by The Players' Tribune as this season started, telling Delon that Toronto stars like Kyle Lowry and DeRozan - his close friends for some time - would have his back. ''They reached out to me and let me know you're in great hands,'' Dorell Wright wrote at the time, when he was playing in China. ''Do what they say. Follow their lead.''

BENCH MATCHUP: Miami's backups got outscored 32-23, on average, by Charlotte's reserves in that series. Toronto could be an issue for the Heat in that department as well; the Raptors outscored Indiana's bench 34-27 on average in their matchup.

WADE WATCH: Wade comes into this series 17th on the NBA's all-time playoff scoring list, at 3,614 points - having just passed Wilt Chamberlain. He should climb a few more spots in this matchup. He's 10 points away from passing Elgin Baylor, 29 from passing Scottie Pippen, 50 from passing Dirk Nowitzki and 88 from passing Magic Johnson. All this comes after a season where he went from 54th to 39th on the regular-season list. ''Dwyane Wade is back to being a young Dwyane Wade. He is a handful,'' Casey said.

COOL JOE: Heat forward Joe Johnson was a matchup nightmare for Toronto in the playoffs two years ago when Brooklyn ousted the Nets in the first round, winning Game 7 on the Raptors' home floor. Johnson averaged 21.9 points in that 2014 series, and scored 50 points in his two games at Toronto this season (one with Brooklyn, the other with Miami).

EASY AS 1-2-3-4: This is the first time since 2010 that the top four seeds in the Eastern Conference made the second round. No. 1 Cleveland is taking on No. 4 Atlanta in the other East semi series, opposite Toronto-Miami.
