Only time will tell if the major overhaul that went down in South Beach will bring the Larry O'Brien trophy to the Miami Heat, but that's not the only new look worth tracking this year. We're only a couple of days into the new season and it's already clear that many players and coaches are looking for a change of pace this year. Here's a quick rundown of who's changed for the better, the worse, and the Doug Collins.

Pau Gasol
Last year's shave: Cleaner than Charlie Ward's Bible
This year's shave: Dirtier than Dennis Rodman's wedding dress
Possible scents for new beard: Memphis blues, Memphis ribs, Peja Stojakovic

Tim Duncan
Last year's hair: Conservative, clean cut, lame
This year's hair: Bushy, natty, lame
Basketball move equivalent: Turnover

Jeff Van Gundy
Last year's hair: Two strands of hair and a forehead that made Ernie Johnson look like Jimmy Johnson
This year's hair: Trimmed the sides and mercifully laid the top tuft to rest
Next steps in the makeover: Platform shoes, baseball cap, Rip Hamilton mask

Kyle Korver
Last year's hair: A mix between Ashton Kutcher and Chewbacca
This year's hair: Ellen DeGeneres
Effect on social life: No more dates with Demi Moore. Many more dates with Sheryl Swoopes

Pat Riley
Last year's hair: We haven't seen such a stunning mix of salt and pepper since DJ Spinderella was pushin' it
This year's hair: What—doesn't everyone go from gray to blonde in their sixties?
Roster change equivalent: Trying to pull that off is like trying to get away with replacing 60 percent of a starting five that was within one rib injury of going to the Finals. Oh, wait…
