I could definitely see him ending up on the Bulls via S&T for Vucevic. No way possible I see him ending up here. The teams in S&T's don't usually get much other then a matching contract and a 2nd rd pick. The Nets could just sign him out right.

Spurs would be hyper stubborn not to make this move. If they force Harper, Castle, and Fox wonky lineups they will be in the lottery again. I get they don’t want to give up trade leverage so they will tell everyone they are not trading the pick.

They won't do it but a wild idea would be trying to keep Castle and moving Fox, Keldon and picks. Between Castle, Giannis, and Wemby they could hold teams to under 90 a night + have cap to add another impact player, Bucks could flip Fox for a nice return and still have #2.

Spurs did a deal with the devil himself Rich Paul to get Fox to the Spurs so highly doubt he gets dealt. They have to either send out the 2nd pick or Castle. They are better off just dealing Harper for Giannis unless they think Harper is better than Castle.

I’m actually seeing a lot of Spurs fans who want to trade Fox and keep Harper and go with a full youth movement not even getting giannis. If I were a Spurs fan I’d want to go all in and start winning now. Why not start competing for championships while Wemby is like 20 years old or whatever? But I do understand the youth movement stuff, nothing is guaranteed with that though and with Wemby/Fox/Giannis you’re guaranteed to be competing for championships instantly health permitting.

We need to get in on Fox tho if that becomes a thing.

Whoever doesn’t get Giannis between OKC and the Spurs should unload the clip for Bam (assuming Giannis goes to the other). It would be their best counter to that move. OKC should trade for Giannis or Bam regardless if they don’t win it all.

I mean he’s my favorite player so hopefully not but if we’re not building a contender he should ask out for his own good and we can load up on assets from OKC or SA or something. You think if OKC or SA are hyper aggressive with their assets we say no?

Fortunately, that is your opinion while most likely every person in the Heat organization including Bam think otherwise. It would take an offer heavily favored in Miami's favor like 4 or 5 unprotected first round picks and an all-star.

this feels like a run it back give the trade deadline pieces a chance year. im not feeling the KD deal if we have to give up a lot since we really cant expect him to be a heavy load player. maybe a healthy Wiggins can give us something more with a clear cut role designed by spo for him. he still is only 30

Imagine if Mavs trade Flagg to Boston for Jaylen Brown and Holiday lol. Essentially the Mavs can trade Irving to Boston as the huge attachment contract. Boston can tank without Tatum and Irving.

They should just trade him for Giannis if that’s the case tbh

Flagg and his parents are die hard Celtics fans. They could be setting the stage to eventually sign or trade for him in the future. I think it's his ultimate dream for him to end up there. Boston is maybe thinking about offering Brown, Holliday, 28th pick, 2027, and 2031 picks while they take back Irving's dead weight expiring contract and just tank this year with them owning there 2026 pick that can't be traded.

Return to Miami Heat
