This will be the same offseason from the previous years. Lots of rumors but nothing was materialize and the Heat will run it back again with the same core lol
To succeed, attitude is equally as important as ability.

The one move I really didnt like was paying Lowry mega bucks. Nows hes a big expiring and could serve us well mid season.

I get wanting to add him that summer but once there was a bidding war and the price/years were being driven up Miami should have just backed out of it but what are you going to tell Butler after the previous years talk about not resigning key players to make cap room for 2021? Miami put themselves in a hole by only wanting Giannis in FA in 2021, they didn't even keep together the team that made the finals.........

Sure sounds like it’ll be an offseason of drafting at #18, re-signing Gabe and Max to deals no one likes, and running it back.

Just got to nail our draft pick and get some vet big men. Not exactly running it back but thats what it is.


Even if we got Michael Jordan in his prime in the draft Spo ain’t playing him first year

Worst case scenario for the off-season would be waiting for Lillard to the end, make zero moves and then Lillard returns to POR a hero again.

We need to refresh the arsenal.

They can try it out this year and if it doesn't work.. GET A TON FROM A KD TRADE! They're in a great situation. KD still has 3 years left on his contract, he's always wanted by teams.


They are in really bad shape. They fixed a need they didn’t have and didn’t do enough to get through Denver. That’s not even talking about the financial challenges they will face. Really stupid move for them.

Yep. That offseason was pretty gross. We struck out about 3 times. Big whiffs. Was the summer of hope. Turned into a major dud.

I woke up and read the suns have traded for Beal, I couldn’t believe and slammed my phone down. FFS Beal /dame on this team and we are looking good. Cmon go and get dame, I honestly don’t care if they trade every pick they can

Even back then, I can’t imagine there was a major bidding war for Dragic.

Yes, I'm looking forward to the team doing some salary dumps so they can sign Gabe/Strus to 4y 50-60m deals.
I think they overpaid on most contracts they have signed the last few years, Duncan, Lowry, Herro. Caleb is the only one that looks very good.
