If you want your article to gain clicks, just include Heat and Lakers in the title. EZ work.

Did not know Fox grew up in Texas. Spurs and his true hometown Houston team make it even more unlikely this is a “Miami Only” situation.

Not to mention that both of those teams on paper have brighter long term futures.

I really wish Rozieer get it together. The Heat needs a good player with his confidence. The first half of the Houston game you see how impactful he can be playing well. The same with Jovic. If the Heat could get good play out of Rozier, Jovic, and Jaime this team would be top three right now in the east. I am not confident in Rozier but praying for his game to arrive.

Last year after his knee injury and before the neck injury, Rozier played exactly how I was expecting him to play. In those 21 games, Rozier average 18.1 pts, 41% 3pt shooting on 15 fga and was clutch at end of games.

Fox isn't making All NBA so his money situation doesn't change. He's has full control over where he goes. This is actually better than any of our previous attempts here imo.

I agree, we’re looking for any possible excuse to why we won’t get him, and it’s warranted simply because Pat doesn’t have it in him anymore but Fox has a massive say in where he goes. Idc if the Nets have 79 1st, he doesn’t want to go there so he’s not being traded there and so on

When exactly has Terry been that kind of player throughout his career?
He's an inconsistent, high volume scorer, now getting up there in age (his production decline might just be due to age).

Although I think he can be slightly better, than he is right now, he's just never going to be a good fit on this team.
I really hope they find a good trade for him to improve their rotation, but it looks difficult.

Starts off by correctly disregarding Phoenix based on Mia's dissatisfaction with what the Suns can offer them but then infers that a GS trade would be more feasible without bothering to assess Mia's perspective on what the Warriors could offer them.

Its not a given that Mia has any interest in Kuminga or a pick 6 years down the road.

Why stop at 7 potential teams? Why not 15? Or 29? Just shows that anyone can be an insider nowadays

This is what Ethan was talking about last week when he said the national media completely disregards the Heat's position in trade talks.

This was all part of Pat's 2026 plan. We knew that was the next viable opportunity. We need to convey this pick this season. If we can get Fox do it.


If Kings are gonna tank now is the time to do it. They have all their picks.

I wonder what they do with Sabonis. He'd look great on the Spurs maybe?

But we don't know if he'll want Heat only. The Spurs and Rockets are great situations for any upcoming stars. Wemby will be top 3 in 3 years. Sengun is 22 and already a good post player. He has potential to be a top 10 player and Rockets have other young players with high ceilings. If winning a chip is the goal I don't know how Fox would picks Spurs or Rockets over Heat. We'll see when the trade request drop.

Yes he is historically streaky player. But this season EVERYTHING is at his lowest. No one expects him to be elite efficiency but missing wide open layups etc especially on a team that he is not the attention getter.
