The Miami Heat lost<\/a> Duncan Robinson to the Detroit Pistons in a sign-and-trade Tuesday.<\/p>\n Robinson, 31, was a quintessential pro and the poster child for the Heat\u2019s developmental system, growing into the greatest shooter in franchise history. After all, he does have the most 3-point makes in both the regular season and playoffs, in addition to the most made 3s in a single playoff game, in Heat history.<\/p>\n While his back has flared up in each of the last two seasons, what he provided as a floor spacer, movement shooter, secondary\/tertiary downhill creator and advantage exploiter won\u2019t be forgotten. Arguably no player was more integral to Bam Adebayo\u2019s success offensively than Robinson.<\/p>\n Now, the Heat must find a way to replace him, even at the cost of going younger. Simone Fontecchio is a better shooter than his 36.3 3-point percentage indicates, but there needs to be another outside source. Miami\u2019s young core of Kasparas Jakucionis, Kel\u2019el Ware, Nikola Jovic, Jaime Jaquez, Pelle Larsson and Keshad Johnson will need space to operate, and Robinson\u2019s presence was a huge part of their success offensively regardless of the other four players surrounding him.<\/p>\n How are they going to do that?
