I hated that trade so much but Jae's been an absolute god and helped us build some playoff rapport in the biggest way so absolutely worth it-- with all that comes with that

I haven't looked at Jae's stats since coming over, but wodie don't miss. He's been a God finna get paid. Seems like a good dude so I'm happy for him

Funny that it was labeled an Iggy trade as if he was the best asset. Not to discount the amazing intangibles and defense that Iggy brings, but Jae has been dominant in his role.

In view of recent events ... I don't know antetokounmpo is worth as much... he seems like psy. He is the kind of guy who will always be the second fiddle

The culture's lethal, to think we were comparing JJ to Lebron and Ellington to Ray a few szn's back.

Jae went from filler to elite role player in the same season, without a Heat training camp. He was seviceable for C's but I don't think Brad could ever

That’s fine. He can win a championship as Scottie Pippen on this team. Just needs to buy into the system.

Giannis questionable for game 4 with an ankle sprain.

Damn it, if Giannis sit the Bucks may steal a game from us

100%.

Spo has been the best I can remember him being this year. These playoffs specifically. Everyone is shining it seems. His subs have been A LOT better than they have been in the past these playoffs. Quality time outs too. I think he's hitting his coaching prime right now, with all the Heat culture dripping from his pores.

Would find a way to use his skillset on offense (or lack thereof), but his defense and rebounding would be a godsend. Really think our fast break potential could go through the roof.

Silver Fox Gogi throwing perfect lobs for Giannis? :reporter:

Would be impossible for Gogi to miss if he was tossing it to GA. :wink:

Makes me wonder how we can keep Dragic. Hes old enough for a pay cut, but still damn good enough to garner $20 million a year. Hes been great.

Balloon contracts for Dragic and Jae this offseason? 1 year deals?

It’s a good move on their part

A. Makes us have to game plan for both situations

B. If they do play without him it’s a trap game

Gonna be a battle either way

I prefer giannis to play what do you guys think ?

Trap game is dangerous looez gonna go for 40 lol

Post #75 » by **Wiltside** » Sun Sep 6, 2020 12:10 am

He’ll play, it’s just standard playoff gamesmanship.

We blow out the Bucks if Giannis does not play in game 4. Crowder and Butler would absolutely stifle Middleton, while allowing Adebayo to place more of his sole focus on guarding Lopez. Can't see how that ends well for Milwaukee..

Not sure. If it stays the same, we have approximately $30 million this off-season per spotrac.

Good news for the Heat. Their next opponent will be all beat up while they're all rested up.
