Miami HEAT Offseason/Trades/FA Thread: Sardine Central 3.0

[IggieCC]

[Picklewagon]

like i have said earlier there's something fundamentally wrong with miami's approach to the whole FA thing. in my opinion they are involving too much players and thus looks less professional because of it. yoū spend almost a day entertaining a player and he will get you for granted.like that hot girlfriend that you give all your attention while she misreads that as weakness and goes for the badass guy instead

This makes no sense. Any team has to go through the motions if it wants to sign a top free agent.

let me ask you a question which one you would respect most. the one that forms circus atmosphere around you or the one who will sit with you in a proper business environment while talking to you in a serious manner?

we had the hassan tweets and videos,the banners on along or near the stadium and 9 hrs of meetings while the other dude probably went to the point in a shorter time without so much tweeting and clowning going on. its a business not a festival or a family affair

What? A couple of tweets, a banner and meetings finished within a day is a circus? The knicks are a circus. I don't think you have any idea what fans of a poorly run organization have to go through

The depression on here is embarrassing, we are 7 years removed from the biggest free agency haul of all-time, we could be the Orlando Magic if it weren't for Riley. Worse actually, since they at least had Shaq/Penny before Riles got here.

Hayward's a nice player. He's, at best, a 20/5/4 guy on a good team, who's probably best suited as a 2nd option or even 3rd. We didn't get the luxury of paying him like a top 10 player in the NBA, oh no, the sky is falling!

Now if you have nothing better to do but complain, just stop, and let iggie, chalms and HWR soothe your soul with memes.

Can we get in on the Crowder action already??

Would fit in nicely here, and at about 7 million a season versus 32. Would expect Riley to at least put out some feelers.

[LordRiley]

Crowder anyone? I'm interested.

[Rapaz]

Gay has a home in Miami and has considerable interest in playing for the Heat, according to two associates. He has spoken with several teams, including Oklahoma City.

[Seabass777]

Let's sign JJ, as well as Dion(but only to a reasonable deal) if not I'm fine with Waiters walking and letting TJ be the starting guard. If that happens then TJ's contract will be justified. Bring on Tyreke Evans as the reclamation project or Rudy Gay on a cheap deal.

I think the next plan of action is to plan for the banana boat team for 2018. I don't know how it can happen,but to have a lineup of

CP3
Wade
Lebron
Melo
Whiteside

I don't care what we need to do to make that happen. Only untouchables are Bam Whiteside and James Johnson.

Sardines provide many valuable benefits, both on the court and off:

• Went 30-11 during second half of last season with a 13-game win streak
• One of the most concentrated sources of omega-3 fatty acids which promote heart health
• Cost effective against the cap in relation to productivity vs. overall salary
• Rich in bone-building vitamin D and vitamin B12
• Gritty no nonsense brand of players who carry huge chips on shoulders
• Packed with protein providing amino acids
• Easily buy into HEAT culture

*Bonus nugget: Sardines are named after the Italian island Sardinia where large schools of the fish once thrived

Two external free agents believed to be of interest to the Heat: Sacramento small forward Rudy Gay and Toronto power forward Patrick Patterson.

Just no. Just get the gang back together and lets roll. Lets not make dumb moves like we did when Lebron left.

The real issue for Boston will be next offseason.

They'll have Horford earning $29m
Hayward earning $32m
They'll need to extend Thomas for like $35m

There goes like 80%+ of your cap. Yes they'll have 3x lotto picks on rookie scale deals, but they're gonna lose some talent.

That's 93% by my math. oof

Where there's Riley, there's winning.

go ahead and just watch the tweets and videos again and see how (Please Use More Appropriate Word) t all looks and sound. spo probably went in to a new age speech as well. that's why hayward dissed him on his cuĉked article

[PizzaLord305]

After retaining jj and dion and Wayne, I'd like to see us land go after a guy or two like mike muscala, cj miles, pat patterson, or thabo sefalosha. Still some good players to be had for the low.

You're right. It's amazing how such a poorly run organization hasn't been contracted. Lebron leaves Cleveland and they are a playoff team within a year while after leaving Miami the team has been a league worst after he leaves. Oh wait

Dragic is a remnant of that post-Lebron squad. He was supposed to team up with Bosh and Wade. Now both are gone.

We should trade him. Our team is full of remora fishes but no shark.

[Heatle]

Thanks for drawing this **** out for nothing and not giving us a chance to get a replacement for you.
This dude is going to get booed so damn hard and I can't wait to see him crack under the pressure.

What better way to thank us than to have your agent deny the reports so you could run spell check a few more times.

**** him. what an absolute joke. waste the jazz time and now we cant get anything to replace him. hell even millsap got atlanta a sign and trade

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I'm just not sure if I can even watch the NBA anymore. I can't stand what it's become.

Jazz subreddit is killing this guy.
