Brooks, Tate, Jeff, Adams and 4 1sts and Houston wins. MAYBE 3 1sts but at that point I might need Reed Smith or Whitmore.

Houston is the 3 seed, half a game back of 2nd. 2.5 back from 1st. You have a superstar available and willing to come to your team, there may never be a better time to strike, how bad do you want it?

If a straight up 2-team trade, it seems like it could be minimum something like:

HOU out:
- FVV
- Jock Landale
- 1 or 2 FRP

MIA out:
- Butler
- T Bryant
- Dru Smith

With certain picks and prospects being mixed in and out to fill that base.

Anything short of 4 1st round picks is not doing it for me

I am here for a pivot and a build to the 2026 offseason

Start building the war chest, let Tyler Herro average 30 points per game in the meantime

That seems rich for HOU, 3 expirings AND 3 First?! I dont know if Id pay that much for a guy who avgs 50 games a year

Shams follows up

Think Houston has the right picks, mix of young players, and filler contracts to get something realistically done. I don’t see us making anything happen with Golden State. Not sure we have any interest in overpaying Kuminga.


I’m leaning Houston as well.

1. Houston
2. GS
3. Dallas

I forgot to add Houston also has the means to alleviate the tax bill. Golden State is under 1st apron restrictions and Dallas really doesn’t have much.

Those 3 expirings aren’t in the rotation though, it just depends how bad they want to win. Bridges just went for like 5-6 1sts or whatever, Jimmy is a proven elite playoff performer

Brooks, Adams, Tate, 2 first, 2 pick swaps. Thats what my guess would be.

We waited too long to expect value like that or even close to it. Butler is looking for an extension at 35 fresh off a completely missed playoff.

You can easily see even with this just a basis that Houston and Heat are great trade partners. They have the ammo we need for our next rebuild. Fill up the coffers with the picks then we can make future moves. Don’t think it will be 4 1st but i can see 2 1st with either Whitmore or Eason included.

Hes old and he gets hurt too much. And id damn sure not give up my young PG especially since FVV is on a team option for next season.

Just get the most you can for the next pivot and I’ll be happy tbh. I’d love to have 4 1sts and several young guys like Jovic, Jaime, Pelle and Ware with the contracts of Rozier, Duncan, and Brooks to go star hunting this summer. We’d potentially have enough for 2 all stars next to Bam and Herro depending on situation

He’s top 5 when it matters most and the west is wide open. It’ll depend on how bad they want it

That’s where I’m thinking he goes with Jimmy going to Houston. 3-4-5 is Houston Mavs and warriors, warriors will need to react to a Jimmy to Houston trade or they’re screwed
