Herro extension is worth it considering what Brunson is about to get. His contract will also be easier to flip next year when extension kicks in.
Similar to the Robinson signing, that's a mistake. Herro is a victim on defense and too limited on the offensive end. Herro needs the ball in his hands in order to score enough to justify that salary, but he's not good enough to justify letting him dominate the ball that much.
Herro issues are fixable. If he can fix them then thats a value deal. But it makes no sense to sign an extension now. He's restricted next offseason. So no need for an extension. Just let him play for another season if he balls out in the playoffs then you pay what it takes to keep him. If he has a disappointing playoffs, you can get him for cheaper or you let him walk. The mistake isn't the deal its making a decision now when you don't need to

Lmao, I did see RealGM pop up on Twitter yesterday morning -- made me check it out again. Was actually on this site pre-Heatles days iirc, maybe even shortly after. Hella bored with the offseason already so I decided to create an account and here we are.

Because you dudes love to set yourself up for disappointment.

They should prioritize Tucker's contract and/or the Herro extension. Oladipo was awesome in spurts, but as good as we was in the ECF, I thought he was getting blown by quite a bit too. If they can get him for under 8-9 mil, go for it. Anything more is an overpay imo.

No prediction on a Duncan move. If the summer looks like what Tim predicts + a couple of vet min signings thats going to be a tough sell to this fanbase.
No way, if this happens it would be the FO placating the fans, they moved Nunn to not compete against Herro for time and it's quite possible they'll let Oladipo go so Herro doesn't have to compete against him for the starting role so Riley can say Herro won the staring position(we just got rid of all his competition) and justify giving him money. What's the worst that can happen, he just joins an expanding list of recently overpaid Miami guys... Whiteside, Waiters, T.Johnson, J.Johnson, D.Robinson and quite possibly T.Herro. Maybe Vincent can join that list next seasons, they already turned away from signing Dragic for the minimum last season to make sure Vincent didn't have competition.

This could be fun offseason if what is being said is correct.
Butler asks out of Chicago when they prioritized youth over winning.
Butler forced his way out of Minnesota when the owner prioritized youth over winning.
Butler got out of Philly when they prioritized youth over winning all season till it was win and go home and they put Simmons in the dunkers spot and gave Butler the ball only to lose to the eventual champs with that last Kawhi shot that kept bouncing till it went in.
Now.. in Miami, Butler in 3 years has gotten Miami team that was going NOWHERE to the finals and to game 7 of the ECF and once again it seems ownership is prioritizing youth(Herro) over winning with Butler. Oh, it could be fantastic in Miami this summer or next season especially with him still having issues with not making the finals this year and watching Robinson and Herro get paid and basically given all the chances they can to succeed.
The issue, I think the mainstream media would be on Butler's side this time. Oh, it could be a very bad offseason for Miami.

He came back about 20 minutes after telling me and asked me not to post the name in the forum because too many people are watching now after the back and forth last night. So because of that I won’t reveal the name right now, I don’t want to screw up is getting any info from them in the future. I’ll give the name in the near future when we have an answer on whether or not it’s going to happen.
Very solid pick up if it happens though, you all will be happy with it

Pat yourself on the back, we’re due for just our 4th straight year of being one elite scorer away from a championship. Enjoy!

The organization has made moves to win but it hasn't worked out. We traded Winslow + some stuff for Crowder, got Iggy and made the run in the bubble.
The year after FO took a gamble on Giannis and it didn't work out.
Year after that, traded Precious for Lowry (Butlers's BFF) & got PJ in FA, Lowry, Herro, Bam disappointed in playoffs.
We have moved young player for vets. Just because we haven't gotten over the hill doesn't mean they are not trying. Your issue is with Herro but he's not alone in why we didn't beat the Celts.
The overall issue is the Heats trades & FA signings stratergy makes it hard to be a contender for several years. The best way to contend over a couple years is to draft a franchise player and 2nd star, and then you can easily build a contender around that.
