All the “Cavs might not buy him out if he wants to go to Miami” was foolish speculation from Brian Windhurst. No agent is going for that, allowing a team to dictate where someone can and can’t go when they are a free agent.

It warms my heart because when we launched in 1988 I could have never dreamed that we would become the rival of the almighty Boston Celtics. It's now 2023 and we live rent free in the heads of all Celtic fans. :lol:

thoughts on Herro in the 3 point contest?

I'm seeing an embarrassing first round exit for some reason .

Might just be basketball blues

I think Habe has to start now for good or you get a 3 and D PG like Oat Bev. You can’t have 3 starters in Lowry Herro and Love that just flat out can’t defend. Idc how good Bam and Jimmy are on that end, that’s a lot to cover up for

Oladipo should start but Vincent also not too shabby on defense either. Just need to be smart with Love and not put him so much with Herro. You can start them though then play Martin more at the 2/3 with Strus off bench.

Sure ... but he's not a free agent.

Tyler Herro broke the open gym 3 point record for pace in his workout for the Heat during draft time so he could be a sleeper tonight.

Why? He's cocky, he can shoot, and there's no one guarding him. I think he's got a good shot to win if he happens to be on a hot streak.

Tyler was made for this.

I believe it. He started with Bam our first preseason game and although it looked horrible it aligns with everything we saw and heard over the summer

Would anyone have complained about trading Dedmon and a 2028 2nd round pick for Love a week ago? If he does indeed sign here, thats essentially what the trade was.

That’s a trade I would have signed off on.. even better when Love is at a fraction of his current contract.

Return to Miami Heat
