Heat/Kings…go all the way. 

Post#1 » by SNPA » Sun Jul 13, 2025 6:45 pm

Heat get - Sabonis/DDR
Kings get - Ware/JJJ/Rozier/Jovic/Wiggins

Miami loads up. They say Riley only cares about giving his team a chance and believe they can make it. Here he reloads again and puts that to the test in a wide open East.

Sac rebuilds by adding Ware/JJJ to their young core. Rozier is expiring salary making extending Keegan/Keon easier. Wiggins is a good stop gap and tradable next year along with Lavine. Jovic fills a need at PF and is a possible longer term piece.

Ellis/Carter/Clifford/JJJ/Keegan/Ware/Raynaud - it’s a foundation.

And yes…I believe Sabonis and Bam can share the court just fine.

Rosier and DDR are only two million part in salary. It should be workable. And DDR has a buy out so it’s not bad to drop them. But the thread is about going all the way.

Miami asks for Carter too. Kings ask for their 28. Heat add protections. I would hate this, the Heat getting Davion and Carter makes me ill. But this is the spirit of going all the way.

The only entity in this world that wants Demar DeRozan is Mama DeRozan

This isn't enough value for sabonis. Ware looks decent but isn't enough and none of the other pieces really move the needle.

Not interested for Miami TBH. I'm not convinced Sabonis and Bam could play together and I'm not interested at all in DeRozan.

Would there a worse defensive 4 some in the league than herro, Powell, derozan, and sabonis?

Imo this trade might help on the regular season, but it will kill them in the playoffs.
