Hey guys... poor Butler is already forgotten. We went from celebrating his arrival to quickly salivating over the next guy. Let’s return to giving our max guy some Miami love! We got a star people!

At this point, I think i'd rather even have herro than that contract

People are really forgetting Westbrook was a mvp of this league , smh

Maybe it has something to do with his decline? Last year was the 3rd year in a row his ORTG had dropped(115, 112, 109, 105) and the second year of his TS% declining (.554, .524, .501).

I actually think it's crazy that Miami is even considering trading for Westbrook as he declines while having 4 more years on a SUPER max contract, just absolutely nuts. If you have a healthy Dragic he may be better overall then Westbrook with a team that already has Butler on it.

Two players. Per 100 possession stats. Which is better for us?

Dragic + James Johnson + Waiters for Chris Paul + PJ Tucker and ONE lottery-protected first, becoming top-10, and then two seconds.

Chris Paul/Jimmy Butler/Justise Winslow/PJ Tucker/Bam Adebayo

Tyler Herro/Kendrick Nunn/Kelly Olynyk/Meyers Leonard/KZ Okpala/Derrick Jones/others

Saves us $900K more.

Book your flight?

Crazy as it sounds, probably.

I just can't believe we used a lotto pick on a FT shooter, I'm still shocked

It's not that he's forgotten, we just know we realistically still need another piece.

OKC should do their part to max the assets they can get back for WB. However, with WB being an enigma being paid 40 million a year, reality says they dont get what they hope for him. If Presti wants to drag it out then we will happily move on. Multiple assets? Not from us. Weve been in purgatory for a while. Finally moving forward with a solid draft and Butler for beans.

If true, it was fun while it lasted. Personally, I'm sick and tired of checking Twitter, and I'm sure everyone else is, as well.

If it happens it happens....Heat will be adding a second star within the next year regardless. Stay patient.

Where are Shams & Woj? They've said nothing so nothing has changed for me.

Shams did an interview today saying their is no front runner for Westbrook and that he can see this thing lagging into December when teams will be eligible to trade more players.

I’ll look for the link.

once more teams can trade players the LA team can get involved and Russ would probably love to play home. More competition when their asking price is already ridiculous. Time to put this one to bedd. We got a squad OKC can stew in their own drama

I suggest you take a look at Dame's numbers and also their career playoff FG% number too.

I’m well aware of his shortcomings. His contract sucks too.

Westbrook or no, happy to roll into next szn with Point Winnie and Yimmy Buckets leading the pack.

Spo better not blue ball me and play Winslow 28-30mpg. Give me that heavy 35 per, Erik (who spells Eric with a K!? SMH)

Is there a way we can talk with Westbrooke and front-load his contract? Instead of paying him 47 million in 4 years we pay that now and every year it gets lower and lower.
