2025 Offseason Thread Vol.6

[Vertical Limit]

How many times am i going to tell you all this team wants to blow it up in 2026? There was no reason at all to trade highsmith which was one of spos favorite players, was on a cheap expiring deal.

They have added absolutely nothing to this roster after getting historically bounced by the Cavs other than Powell which costed us nothing.

They had Durant at their hands, they could have went and got him, the Heat did not want him, they dont believe in this core to trade assets for durant

Theyre giving Herro and Bam one last season to see if theyre worthy of moving forward with, and if nothing comes of it theyre in position to blow this **** up easily.

Over here in PDX we have a new owner who’s flush with cash. Meanwhile, y’all are just flushed and forgotten.

Xoxo.

Yet here you are.

Delighting in your demise.

Xoxo.

I'm pretty sure Marks & Co. outlined the reason. All of Spo's favorite players have been traded or walked at some point, why would Jagsmith be any different?

Good move. Forward.

Stretch Simone too. I'm very glad we moved on from Haywood Highsmith, not because of him as a player, but because we didn't have room for him in the rotation and with his injury we can use the space. I want Precious Achiuwa back! Sign Dru Smith and, maybe, Burks.

Pg: Herro/ Mitchell / Smith
Sg: Powell / Larsson / KJ / Scary Idiot
Sf: Wiggins / JJJ / Burks
Pf: Adebayo / Jovic /Johnson
C: Ware / Achiuwa

That's a young rotation, but good enough to be... Okay...

Or maybe we go with this:

Pg: Mitchell / Smith / KJ / Scary Idiot
Sg: Herro / Larsson / Burks
Sf: Wiggins / Powell / JJJ
Pf: Adebayo / Jovic / Johnson
C: Ware / Achiuwa

We have 4.2 millon in space that's enough for two players. Tenured vets of over 10 years get 3.6 million but only count 1.8 mil against the cap.

Welp sorry Highsmith, but the Heat want a clear idea of which of the young guys are future or not. Jaime, Jovic, Larrson this is their moment.

[lastb1ckman]

Also, looks like small ball in dead in Miami. If the heat pick up another big like Kai Jones then the entire big rotation is full of 6'9" or talker players.

[SoFlaKingReal]

Why would PHX blow up the KD trade over Haywood highsmith? lol

That is clearly bull****

Only 1 rotation player from our last finals team is left, that was quick

You mean all the "undrafted, overrated, overpaid bums" that Butler carried?

According to Barry it was Jovic, we need him to take a leap soon to justify it

Also have to throw Keshad Johnson into the mix.

[HeatingUp3]

Besides Ware and maybe Jovic, i don't see another young player of ours make a splash this season.
Day comes and we gonna have a superstar again in Miani.

Cody Martin is a player Spo had high interest in. I wouldn't be surprised if Heat picks him up

He’s garbage

[dolphinatik]

we somehow got smaller but I like the move. Honestly going to miss Highsmith , he was hitting some unlikely shots last year.

I was thinking about this one right here. Would not shock one bit in they brought him in. Expecting one big man and one guard type player to be signed here with the money that is now under the tax line. Bringing back Burks also makes a lot of sense as another bench shooter is also a need behind Larrson.

Caleb Martin was garbage too until we got a hold of him lol. I think it's more likely we just resign Burks
