Off-season thread vol 8: KD brings in UD

[3ammy3uck3ts]

If thats true, I would not be surprised if Jimmy is demanding a trade, and honestly no one will blame him. Jimmy is in his prime right now, we have the chance to get an elite closer and it would just cost us low draft pics, and 1) it prevents us from dealing with the Herro extension and 2) possibly gets us out of the Duncan disaster? Yeah im demanding a trade if im Jimmy. Remember we would trade first round picks like tic tacks. Not a good look for us.

Send him to the Celtics so he can get the ring he deserves

100%.. we don’t deserve Jimmy

Saw this man will us to within 1 shot of an nba finals in one of the greatest playoff runs we’ve even seen in a Heat jersey and said “alright let’s see if you can do it again without PJ”

Must be nice

Lebron James trade request to the Cavs incoming

Hell they still have their 1st round pick for Bronnys draft season and LeBron will be a free agent, he could sign for the minimum there if he really wanted

Will be fun watching Mitchell and Wade play together… dean Wade that is

Let’s not care about jimmy’s prime and how he carried us but care about Paying UD and prioritising him for taking pay cuts… SHAMBLES

Utah didnt want what we had. Some people are lashing out at the FO because they didnt get their guy and wanna place blame somewhere. It was known they coveted NY’s supply of unprotected picks, it was known by some of their reporters that they coveted Sexton. Throughout this whole thing I didnt hear or read a single credible report that said Utah coveted any of our assets. It’s like being mad at a chick for choosing when you weren’t even on her radar. Jimmy didnt go to the FO and say go get Donovan, whatever it takes..man aint requesting a trade lol.

Did ole Danny Boy get fleeced? Cavs picks are '23, '25, '27 and assuming they retain their core guys and don't get destroyed by injuries, you're looking at zero lottery picks and potentially all 3 being somewhere in the 20s

iirc Miami could've removed protections to then offer '23, '27 and '29. With Jimmy and Lowry surely aging out by '27 you've got a Mitchell/Bam core in a post-Riley era which is pretty meh absent another significant piece

Danny boy can eat a dick, but he got 2 historically chitty franchises to give up their farms for middling or worse talent. He'll likely hit on at least one of those future lottery tickets

If we truly went all in we’d have Mitchell right now, in the end we didn’t want to unload the cupboard for him

Screw that

We got Lowery's massive contract on the books because of him. Jimmy helped make this bed.

It's incredible how fans are diluted over JB, I give you the he is our best player, but cmon, he can barely make an All Star team at his age...JB owes this team big time for resurrecting his career, I think wade was the main culprit... he has always been a great player, but his best days were not in the heat uniform

Jimmy’s best days have absolutely been in a Heat uniform. He’s been incredible for us, and worth every penny.

That contract hasn’t stopped us from anything.

The Heat could have match the deal. The thing is the Heat did not feel like the Jazz were willing to trade him to the Heat regardless. The Danny Ainge was not going to make a deal with Pat.

They literally called Miami the day RJ got his extension and told Miami if they increased their offer to 4 picks Donovan was theirs. Miami already had a trade with OKC in line to unprotect the 3rd pick. Thats all they could muster. Early on when all the shenagins began there was an ability for a 4 team trade that had Miami send assets out to free up another first. But those trades are no longer on the table. That offer was only available and offered for Durant but was never proposed for Donovan, one way or another No there was no way to match the offer. Utah actually did give us an opportunity when NY backed out, we were no longer interested to gut the team to find a long lost FRP from another team.

At this point of the season, it would of been difficult. It would of involved a multi team deal like you are saying. But that mistrust of Ainge was a monkey wrench to push those scenarios and likely would of dragged some more. Rival executives really take a personal pleasure in trying to make the Heat look bad, Danny Ainge and Thibodeau.

I suspect the Heat will sit back and just monitor the Nets situation. Herro contract is a sticky problem they have. The relationship with Marks is a real plus unless he loses his job.

He also owes this team for paying him an average of like 48 million until age 36 when he can't even be relied upon to shoot 3s consistently and 'is game heavily relies on his athleticism. He's good now and will be for the next year or two but unlesss he ages like Hebron, we're in deep doo doo regarding his contract long-term imo

[contract]

I'm not upset about Mitchell. The price was simply too high for a player of his caliber. We need to patch up the roster and outwork everyone again.

No way the Nets stick together if they struggle. Kyrie will be shipped off for bag cookies which may get the Heat involved. Durant may check out. By mid Dec and Jan more trade chips will be available for the Heat

They are not committed to this roster. They are not going to trade picks for a role player. This year until a trade happens is just gonna be a showcase year to boost players trade values.

Who mentioned a role player in that post?

Accidentally replied to your post. Someone mentioned Heat just need to trade for a 4

lol that's an exaggeration. We've been to multiple finals before Jimmy. We've had Wade, Shaq and Lebron all top 15 players all time play for this franchise. And Jimmy is nowhere near on their level. Its been a disappointing offseason but this isn't Sacramento Kings.

Or we may end up getting stuck with ~ the defending #1 seeded Eastern Conference Finals, ---><--- that close to making the NBA Finals team from last season. There are worse teams and worse fates.
