I’m hearing the offer is #3, #23, Sharpe, Simons, future firsts, future swaps, $300 million cash.

But under no circumstances will we (Portland) be required to take back Duncan Robinson.

Damn, so we lost out on Beal primarily due to financials. That's unfortunate

If you trade Bam you have to do a full tear down, everything we do on both ends revolves around him

I’m a Heat fan first and foremost, I just call out the stupid **** you all say about our franchise cornerstone. Pat wouldn’t trade Bam for Dame straight up thankfully


Well, I'm not a doctor but you seem to have an allergic reaction to winning.

Butler with Dame and you can go out and find a serviceable big to compliment those two alphas.

Agreed that Mia likely wouldn't make that move because they are too invested into Bam.

Despite that, it would be the correct basketball move if it were hypothetically on the table.

Have to give the Blazers credit for this one. Real subtle way of telling us through the media that any offer not including Bam is a joke.

Half the fanbase on here seems to be dying to be a terrible team with flashy young players who score a lot and ultimately win little.

As a Blazers fan, I fear this ends up with Bam staying in Miami and Pat Riley somehow being given majority control of the Blazers. He’s going to pull some Robert California mind phukery on us.

LOL Bammy is going to be taking xanax left and right. Jokes aside IF the HEat can not give Bam an oportunity to win it all, i wouldnt mind if he goes to Portland and have a chance to be a champion. This FO have been failing us for a while now.

I hear what you’re saying but your mouth isn’t moving, it must be coming out of your ass.

Swap dame for Bam and the Heat don’t make the finals last year. Allergic to winning? I’ve witnessed 3 championships with this team, 7 finals trips (2 in the last 4 years), 3 ECF trips in the last 4 years. I’m begging the Heat to trade for an all star 3 level scorer this season because 1. It’s their biggest need and 2. Because I’m fuxking addicted to winning, not allergic. I want a championship for this group more than I’ve ever wanted a championship outside of Wades 1st.

Get to the playoffs next year playing 0 defense and get smoked by the bucks because now we have no one to slow down Giannis in the biggest moments.

Or outside of ball, we get to the playoffs and Jimmy sprains an ankle or his knee is giving him issues again. There’s 1 wasted season, the following year Dame breaks his hand like Herro and there’s another wasted year.

Don’t worry though, year 3 we have 2 36 year olds combining for $120M of our payroll and nothing to look forward to for the future because we thought Dame/Jimmy and no defense could win us a championship in a 2 year window.

I give the FO **** but I know they’re smarter than that
