Lmfao! I'm done with Spo, lol. Phuck that dude.
What's Spoelstra supposed to do, he has Bam, he doesn't have any 4s other than a rookie. Take it up with the FO has put together a roster with Lowry, Robinson, Herro, Strus, Oladipo and Vincent in the 2 guard positions.
I imagine you typing this with a straight face.
You look at Bams size and skill set, then look at Caleb's size and skillset and you surmise that Caleb is the better option at the 4.
You're a unicorn buddy.

lmao and i was just commenting to another poster how ainge might try to throw off on gettin durant.. I hope riley doesnt fall for it... this guy might hold us up just long enough for some team to sneak away KD from us... and than later he tells us thanks but no thanks on trading mitchell... if im riles, id be all in on KD... guy is 34 but still has 3 good seasons left before he starts to really slow down... id give up everything for KD... only thing on this roster that should be untouchable is jimmy butler.. everyone else can go. remember ainge is a celtics fan, and hates the heat/riley... we wrecked his dream of a celtics dynasty... he is doing us no favors.

I never would have thought Riley would choose this path at PF. Riley always succeeded with physical pit bulls at PF. This is some ultimate con job phuckery to the fan base.

Well, the issue is the quality at PF. Even going skimpy at PF, having Bam at center allows the whole team to switch and with that, they've had a championship level defense. You drop in a slower player like a real center, and you no longer can just switch and with that, the defense probably drops off.
I'm so sorry you don't care about defense; it is half the game of basketball.

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

Re: Offseason Thread VOL 5 - I WILL BRING LIGHT
The biggest question right now is it Miami or Phoenix that lands KD in a three way deal with Brooklyn and Utah.
The Nets will be much more willing to play ball with KD if they are getting a young stud in Mitchell. Then it becomes about satisfying Utah. Do they like what the Heat or Suns are offering?

I've been astonished at how the little the FO cares about getting a real PF vs a SF playing PF. I'd expect Dedmon's contract turns into a past his prime PF or past his prime bigger SF who will play PF somewhere before the trade deadline.

This.
Nope, this team may have had a title in the last few years without that silly 2021 Giannis dream(like he wasn't going to sign a supermax before leaving). Miami could have gotten CP3 a month after acquiring Butler and with that, probably have 1 title already.
Miami has Butler because WADE sold him on Miami, within 5 minutes of the Butler/Miami meeting he already said he would go to Miami. Luckily Riley lowballed Wade to make him leave Miami and team up with Butler for a year.

Wouldn't hate that Indiana offer sheet for Ayton anytime now...

Wanna bet? They'll shed salary during the season to get under the tax.
Non tax teams are getting like 11 million dollars from the tax paying teams... mostly GS and LAC.

UD really costing us potential contributors at this point. Just make him a damn assistant coach and give him a token few shares in the Heat organisation ffs. If he wants to play ball at practice and grind, go for it.

Ainge baiting the Heat with Mitchell. He's hoping they'll start sniffing while another team snags KD. Then he will pull Donovan off the table! Woy, what a bastard.

I look at some of these NBA front lines and we are going to be in some pain without round mound Tucker boxing out and setting screens. I still remember that first round smashing by the Bucks cause Spo got cute and played his ultra small ball into the toilet.

Let's see how the dust settles if we're successful with a KD or Donovan pursuit. Clearly, Martin will be logging some time at the 4 though...so prepare thy butthole for that.
