Wow. Thats a report.

I want 10 first rounders. Nothing less.


At first look it seems warriors and Rockets have up to 4 available, we need to be talking to them

I am too. Especially after going 7-2 with this new lineup. I was literally just about to post if this version of Tyler is legit and here to stay we need to capitalize on it and go all in lol.

Houston has the best available expirings for us as well. They’re shockingly the 3 seed too.

Mavs rockets and warriors are 3-4-5, we need to get them in a bidding war because whoever gets him is going to separate themselves from that group and likely snag 2nd.

The feeling should be mutual tbh, they fumbled his build by never truly going all in when we were right there. The only times we weren’t in contention were the shortest offseason ever and when he got hurt last year. If he makes the 3 in game 7 in 2022 that’s 3 finals trips under normal circumstances

I'd be surprised if you get a better package than one containing Wiggins and Kaminga (who you will have to resign losing Miami's huge FA money in 2 summers). It's going to take some salary stacking by the other teams to make salaries work.

I’d personally look to flip Kuminga to a younger team for more assets but that’s just me. They need whatever assets they can get for Fox this summer

Im game for a bidding war for a top 5 playoff performer looking to win his 1st chip.

What bidding war? There aren't many teams that will be available and from that small group there aren't many different packages that can be made within NBA parameters with Miami barely under the 2nd apron which probably means somoene's also going to have to incentive a team like Detroit to offload some salary too. If salaries are being stacked, there has to be another team to offload the extra bodies, even if Miami is moving guys like Bryant and/or Richardson.

Timing of the "report" is conveniently right when Miami is slated to have a big dip in activity with only one game scheduled this week. I make it to mean the media is timing their speculation to keep clicks and dialogue churning.

This is what I expected. As we close in on Dec 15th when the first wave of players can be traded, it was either the Heat close to coming to an agreement or a trade. I did not expect this not to be resolved by Christmas. Players like Ingram, are likely will be the target of the rebuild.

If Houston or golden state are holding out on some picks that’s when you get them in a bidding war. How bad does Houston want to add a top 5 player when it matters most to their young core? How bad does Golden State want to try and get 1 more with Steph and Draymond?

There are avenues to explore.

Heat enemies trying to derail our train to the championship by causing chaos in the locker room. Don’t let go of the rope.
For a long time it gave me nightmares,witnessing an injustice like that.It’s a constant reminder of just how unfair this world can be.I can still hear them taunting him, Silly Rabbit tricks are for kids.I mean why couldn’t they just give him some cereal?

Oh, I am, it's quite possible Butler will be on the strongest roster of his career by the 2nd half of this season.

If we’re going to trade him it’s better for everyone involved to get this solved quickly. Teams need to come to us with the best offers from the jump. We don’t need this lingering on and the teams need the most time possible with Jimmy to gear up for a championship run

The goal should be to acquire trade peices, for trades that can be done later

Return to Miami Heat
