Posters daydreaming…
To reply to cwebb above you…
By the way, Beal sucks and i would not want him taking minutes from Kevin Love, who averages like 2 minutes a game.
If we are going with the youth movement, we dont need beal putting a wrench on it.

No loss. I'd honestly rather see Pelle get burn.

I could become a free agent and someone would report that the Heat are interested. It’s hard to keep up or believe.

In this hypothetical, let’s say it costs a combination of Wiggins, Jaquez, Highsmith, and possibly some 2nds.
That would leave us with something like Mitchell, Kasparas, Herro, Jovic, Knecht, Bam, Collins and Ware.
How would the board feel about that combination, both as a roster, but also in terms of the front office?

Add Pelle and Keshad to that group, along with Rui. That is a group all 27 years old and younger!! Youth movement baby!

I completely forgot about Rui, lol. I’m interested to see what each of you think about that combination as a roster, as well as the front office, in this particular scenario.
I understand that negative thoughts/actions emit a larger response, and much of the criticism that’s been levied is reasonable, I am seeking to understand this collective of minds.

That is a weak roster. I don't see the need to add Collins.
The LA trade you outline looks like a mistake to me. 24 year-old Knecht is a good SF to bring in off the bench. Neither Hachimura nor Knecht are good defenders. 27 year-old Hachimura does have a good 3-point shot, but are you putting him at PF? I thought Bam was playing PF with Jovic backing him up.
My issue with the current team is playmaking. We have whole quarters where we cannot score, and a good offensive team (like... let's say the Cavs... hypothetically you understand) will smoke this new defense even worse than last season's.
In short, it looks like we're just moving deck furniture on a ship that's not seaworthy.

To play behind the player he was always regarded to as one tier below?
Or he could sign with Miami and play with young stars and Bam and Herro and who ever is left of the youngins. By the time he can play we’ll have more draft Capitol Mr more young players to offer in the off season of 2026 plus max cap space.
Miami is in a. Much better place…
Steph, Jimmy and Green will be another year older when he’s ready to play. A bunch of 36 year olds….

I don't want him to Lakers even if he has a chance for a title there.
Miami is a situation where he will need to step up and take responsibilities.
19ppg is not enough for him and noone will be happy with him in Miami scoring only 19ppg.
I think this is exactly the situation that he needs.
A situation where the team demands from him more.
Give him a chance until the trade deadline.
20 games the last year were very few to judge a player.
Trade him in trade deadline if the team goes nowhere.
Evaluate him fairly first.
Give him some games to play healthy
