Not gonna fault him. He does not want to be the GUY.

Nor does he want to deal with the Heat’s conditioning standards, as we discussed in the Wizards forum.

Him not preferring Miami has no validity. We couldn’t get it done numbers wise. Well we could of for our part but not for the Wiz who wanted little to no money back and that wasn’t going to work for us.


If Beal wanted to be in Miami, then he'd be in Miami. Instead, he always maintained that any contender would do. Heat fans drummed up a lot of speculation about Beal over there years, but it was never rooted in reality.

KD's inner circle guy tweeted this. Apparently Kat and Trae are on the move too and he hints at us getting Dame?

I will have a problem if we pay Strus any kind of money this offseason. **** zero for us all year and we pay him. That's some Heat wishful thinking that he'll turn it around.

Will you look at that....


Dame's mouthpiece is saying that but watch it be KD 2.0. We will not cook and the market will dry up and we'll run it back :lol:

This is exactly what is going to happen. We are fu*ked. Probably gonna have to use future firsts to unload the bad contracts that dominate this team. THAT'S ALL WE ARE GOOD FOR IS GIVING OUT ATROCIOUS CONTRACTS AND THEN FUTURE PICKS TO SHED THEM.

I can't believe Beal chose PHX..... that team not gonna win anything. NBA just allowing PHX CEO to collude with his Father, Beal's agent...

Barry Jackson has been too busy playing trade machine fan boy and pumping out so many unrealistic scenarios for me to take him seriously anymore. He’s essentially become 5 reasons these days.

Beal happy to sit back, collect that big paycheck and be the #3 guy on a winning team. Must be a nice life..

Spo, Riley, Jimmy would've demanded much more out of him.

Unfortunately the agents run the NBA.

Not getting Beal stinks but think people got to step back and realize that moves are coming one way or another this off-season. Just let it play out. At least learn that after what you saw from this team during the post-season run. Everyone thinks they are dead in the water until they aren't. There's a lot of moves out there that can be made.

Beal basically gets us a championship. When people say put your money where you mouth is, its not a metaphor. We have seen time after time what we do and dont do. This is something that James Jones used to help sell the idea of Beal coming over. One team is not scared to pay, they will put their money where their mouth is. The other team uses winning like a cheap pr phrase. When it comes time to spending to win we dont. 3 out of 4 years we do nothing.


No that's not why. Players choose easy path. KD only wanted Suns cuz of Booker. Heat were wasting their time in that negotiations. Same here Beal wanted Suns cuz he saw KD, Booker, Ayton as a guaranteed chip. KD& Booker > Bam & Butler in most players eyes. I don't know what the FO is supposed to do there.
They have nothing guaranteed. I do not like that roster. Booker Beal and KD do not complement each other. Denver in 5

Dame would fit into the culture alot better than Beal. He's going to be more expensive too.

I just don't like the fit. KD and Booker are ball dominant. Where's the reps for Beal at $50 mil per? They think he's the piece though, so we will see.

So now our whole offseason revolves around the hope that Lillard who hasn't asked out despite all the rumors year after year after year, finally asks out and we somehow actually get him despite him not having a no trade clause. hahahahaha Damn these last few offseasons have been blue balls over and over.

Return to Miami Heat
