Gonna be a very interesting couple of months. I actually can’t wait until July. I feel like we are gonna be pretty aggressive this offseason. Hopefully it’s in a positive sense and we get a feel for where we are going.

This team either needs to find a trade for a legitimate star, or gut the roster and reload. It’s a weird position to be in.

It should be interesting. It has become obvious that Spo has no use for Whiteside, but I'm not sure that Pat moves him.

And judging from Pat openly encouraging the team to slow down our breakneck pace :lol:

there may actually be a little tension brewing between Pat and Spo.

Or I may just be imagining it.

Exit interviews should be fun with Hassan

There's gonna be some A-Grade memes coming out of that exit interview Chalms. Frothin.

I just hope we don't bring back a treadmill team. I'm OK with us sucking if I know the direction of the team, but we are in purgatory at the moment.

Good chance he just skips it now that I think about it, I don't think they're required to speak

I'm standing by my prediction that I don't think Miami's going to do much this summer. Money is locked up into a lot of people for a lot of years. Most I see is Whiteside getting traded, but even then, Miami may wait and try to recoup his value a bit next season.

I swear one more sass post from you I'll bump you off OP chalm down :wavefinger:

As for this off-season, I don't know if we can be optimistic about getting a star or major overhaul given our assets? Let's be real we don't have a whole lot to work with. I expect some re-tooling but drastic roster improvements will be hard to come by.

Can you specify what sass is, officer?? Am I allowed to use toothless pics for example???

I agree with you though, I don't see anything drastic happening

Can't go higher then that until he proves he's not an offensive liability.

With that said, I rather overpay for a young guy that can still grow then for a guy like Blake.

Think he showed enough to warrant something similar. Maybe slightly less if we can. 4/40 or 4/36?

I think Pat Riley may very well get an all star player this offseason. Look at the Pelicans without Cousins. They may realize they are better off with a wing player than another big.

Trade everyone, including the coaching staff. Also, use new approach during halftime to break the "Heat culture" we're forming there.

If a team comes calling for any of our players then we are listening. Not anyone on this roster remotely close to untouchable.

I remember the days when I thought Hassan for Cousins would be a lateral move :lol:

a one leg Cousins might be more productive than Hassan
