Simmons’s Heat vs. Herro’s Nets will be a great Eastern Conference matchup for years to come.

Still haven't said how Pop taking him would benefit us in a deal if SA are getting compensated for that though?

Don’t care i’m going to will it some how

Fair enough.

Look this would be my last resort if this was the only way to get a deal done. The only condition if this were to happen though is that we keep Jovic and Jaquez otherwise they can kick rocks. We would need their low cost deals on the roster if we were taking back that much salary.

When your best trade chip is Tyler Herro you can’t afford to be picky. We will take Ben and any other crap contract needed to be taken. Just do it


Ben only has two seasons m his deal. He is an expiring contract next year…

If they take Duncan and Lowry from us, and us taking Ben is a way to leverage a lower draft and Caleb/JJJ/Jovic payment from us for Dame… I am honestly in.

He may be serviceable from the bench in a Spo point forward role. We turn undrafted players into stars, why not a lottery pick!?!

Maybe a chance BK gets McDermott and Herro so they end up giving 2-3 picks or some seconds and compensate SA. Also think there’s a deal somewhere that maybe gets Christopher and a pick to Portland for Martin. 2028 and 2030 from us.

Think Washington would trade Tyus Jones for a 2nd rounder too?

Picking up the Olympian Dame is not a bad option to get closer to Butlers timeline. We have a stacked team that's a little young.

We're on the Bam timeline as is. Lowry notwithstanding...

The Miami Heat's vaunted, young, undrafted talent pool - 2023 (significant contributors past or present only):

  • Gabe Vincent
  • Max Strus
  • Omer Yurtseven
  • Caleb Martin (probably about to be traded)
  • Duncan Robinson (possibly about to be traded)
  • Haywood Highsmith
  • Orlando Robinson

Next up:
  • Jamal Cain
  • Jamaree Bouyea
  • Dru Smith
  • ...?

I have to say I'm a bit surprised that the decision was made to go with Orlando Robinson over Yurt. I wonder which were the biggest factors between money, role, talent ceiling, and injury.

Cronin is the 6'3" guard forcing Bam into a 4-foot fadeaway.

Spurs get Ben Simmons
Blazers get Robinson, Martin, Jovic
Heat get Dame
Nets get Herro and 26 million in expiring deals in Mcdermit, Birch, and Collins

Blazers get 4 first round picks in the deal 2 from the Heat 1 from the each of the Spurs and Nets

Everybody goes home happy

Return to Miami Heat
