Miami Heat Offseason Thread 3.0: Dame Time

[AirP.]

This board is honestly just becoming a circle jerk of repeating the Heat’s missteps while completely glossing over the good decisions. Bunch of whiny **** looking for attention.

I don’t think anyone needs to post on the board that we let Crowder and Tucker go lol

We all know that already right?

I also know after LeBron left this franchise wasn't building towards anything but D.Wade (after the FO refused to pay him) convinced Butler (his teammate in CHICAGO) the Heat's environment was a good fit for him, without that this franchise might just be a perennial play-in team since it won't tank.

It's like arguing the Chiago Bulls FO was good during the MJ years, he and Phil Jackson carried that franchise, they've done nothing since which was over 20 years ago.

We made the Finals without Crowder, made the Finals without Tucker. Those guys are replaceable but nobody whines over spilled milk quite like Heat fans.

Definitely replaceable but we didn't replace them with anyone and that was the problem lol. It's not hard to understand.

Dion Waiters would be the play-in king in that scenario, not Patrick Beverly.

[miamiballer]

I might be in the minority here

I would love dame but if it can’t happen I would be cool with trading Duncan and a 1st for an upgrade at the 4 as long as we bring back strus and vincent

Who drafted D wade? Oh that’s right.

Also, you are kind of out of your element here because there was much more to Wade leaving the Heat. The relationship between Riley and wade was never the same after wade sat there and watched Lebron leave without giving Riley a heads up.

I was in shock Miami didn't pay D.Wade and your franchise let him walk.

Riley and this FO did a fantastic job for Miami, I'm just saying the last 7-8 years haven't been good. They got the Bam pick right, but they also overpaid a bunch of marginal players to the point you have 2 vet minimum players and a recent buyout starting in the finals.

I will say, the culture that's been put in place by Riley and his support of Spoelstra is still paying dividends, the talent evaluations though in the last 7-8 years, eh, not all that great.

[SoFlaKingReal]

There’s the agenda that Riley pushed Wade out, and then there’s the reality from Wade himself:

Also LOL
Like I said, a circle jerk of Heat missteps in here.

[Rapaz]

Bunch of spoiled brats in here. My team hasn’t won since the Carter administration, back when the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, East Germany, and Czechoslovakia were countries.

But that will all change once we acquire Bam.

Huh? Wade didn't even know, he opted into his player option and cost himself money over it.

[AirP.]

How about drafting Bam….did Riley do that?

Aboslutely. How about the Duncan deal, did he do that right with Strus already on the roster? Did he do the Whiteside max right? How about all those bad contracts from a 30-11 run? You're getting ready to see part 2 of a 2nd half of the season hot streak creating more bad contracts.

[VaDe255]

I'm almost starting to believe there is a chance that they could get Dame.

Best offer is like:

Jovic + Herro + Caleb + Oladipo + 4 FRPs (assuming OKC is willing to make it work)

That's a reasonable offer for an aging star, who maybe has 2-3 years left in his prime before the decline is real and not many teams can beat this offer.
Rebuilding for Portland with all that draft capital, young core and that #3 pick is arguably the much safer choice also.

Sure Brooklyn has more picks, but they are also much further away from contending than the Heat.
If Lillard has enough say on the matter, this offer could be enough.

[powerball1373]

I'm just here for them 3hammbl3s if we trade Bam to build around Herro.

Wrong, all three of the Big 3 opted out in 2014.

Aren’t you a Jimmy Butler/former Bulls fan that just followed him to Miami? But no bias I’m sure.

[SerialChiller]

Nobody's saying Riley hasn't been good in the past. Some people are pointing out he's been not so good as of late especially compared to the past, and I think that's fairly accurate calm down.

What FO hasn’t made mistakes?

How about finding Duncan and Strus from the scrap heap.

True I meant he opted out when he should of opted in my bad the point stands.

You should get just as much credit for finding them as you get crushed for way overpaying them

Yet we have 2 finals and another ECF appearance “as of late”

GET. A. GRIP.
