Re: MIAMI HEAT Offseason Thread 2021
Pretend that we can do a 3 way with Cleveland and Dallas. Would you guys prefer Love or Kristaps?

Kristaps. Injury history is similar. Love more proven but older, Kristaps higher upside and more athletic.

Terrible turn of events for us Leonard injured during the playoffs w/ no opportunity to get back on the crt after Clips eliminated by Suns. Clippers make WCF & taking Phoenix to 6 gm's without Khawi.....It's prob the worst case scenarios to negatively affect our chances in landing him next to Clips winning the NBA finals. You couldn't possibly expect him to leave when Clips were a healthy Leonard away from potentially beating the Suns to advance to the Finals. It would look horrible on his part if he leaves & expect harsh criticism from the public and media.
Whole teaming up w/ Jimmy is nonsensical considering Jimmy chose Miami over playing w/ Khawi in LA. Why would Khawi then want to leave LA to come play w/ the guy who didn't choose him.
I think we need to look elsewhere & simmer down entertaining this. We'd only be left w/ another heartbreak.
If u don't want 2b here, the way things work, u don't like it, then don't b here. U have 2 stand on something. If Miami ain't standing on something, they become alot of these organizations trying 2 find their identity. This is the culture, bro -Wade

I messaged some mods of both Cleveland and Dallas to see what kind of return they'd expect. Cleveland would do Sexton for Herro if we take Love. Dallas would take Love for Kristaps to shorten the years on a big money deal, though that's a depressing thought.

We definitely need to resign Dipo and hope for his best.

Been saying this the whole time. Fans can be annoyed that he got injured again, but he’s the biggest talent that we can definitely add to the tram that got swept. Dude wanted in for a while now - give him a 1+1 and let’s see what he can back

Best bang for the buck we can get.
On that injury note, what about trading for Kristaps, guys? Whole lot more money. Fit is nice though.

Certainly looks like it could be a realistic option. Sexton and THJ backcourt with Bam and Butler looks spicy.

Kristaps and Sexton would be a very interesting offseason haul but i envision us keeping Love for the same reasons of shorter contract. But if the Heat like Kristaps he might be a viable option.

Mavs really like Finney Smith so don’t think he’ll be involved. Everything else looks good. Might have to toss in Okpala to Mavs.

Then maybe we take JRich back instead of DFS?

I'm pretty skiddish on bigs, and Kris is starting to seem like a better idea than reality (like my poor, sweet Winslow)
For his price tag I might pass. All in on Sexton though; if we could sign Dippo and trade for Sexton, we'd have a good core to gradually take scoring responsibility from Jimmy and put him in a small ball 4 role that he's destined for (assuming Dippo isn't done)

J Rich could be a possibility.

I think Love for 2 years is almost as bad of a bet then Prozingis for 3 years.
Both are very likely to underperform their salary, both have major health issue, both are a great fit next to Bam.
Prozingis is a bigger health risk IMO, he just had an AWEFUL defensive year where he lost a ton of mobility. But in theory, he gives the team a higher ceiling then Love if he doesn't break down.

Re: MIAMI HEAT Offseason Thread 2021
My girl saw a "allUcanHeat" fan poll and thought it was an official announcement, so when I woke up she informed me we just traded Dragic + Iggy + Herro for Sexton + K.Love. The exact trade I've been rooting for the last week.
After jumping in the air in joy and disbelief about my new good fortune, I come here only to see the only development made was Atlanta thread discussion.
She's going to hear about dis I tell u. raging.

Re: MIAMI HEAT Offseason Thread 2021
3 teams trade :
Heat get : Sexton, Prozingis, J-Rich
Cavs get : Iggy, Herro, Precious
Mavs get : K.Love, Dragic, KZ, second round pick from Heat
Then we sign and trade Robinson for Lauri Markkanen, so we can have some insurance if Porzingis breaks.
It works money wise, legal trades all around.
We then got :
Sexton/
Rich/
Jimmy/
Bam/Lauri Markkanen
Prozingis/Dedmon
Heat get : Sexton, Prozingis, J-Rich
Cavs get : Iggy, Herro, Precious
Mavs get : K.Love, Dragic, KZ, second round pick from Heat
