Re: Miami Heat Offseason Thread 7.0: 3ammy vs Cronin, Winner Takes Dame!!
I wonder if Mia is considering the idea of keeping Lowry even if they get Dame.
Seems inconceivable but he proved to have playoff value this season and he's expiring.
You know Jimmy is probably angling for this.

20m to be a 4-5 best player who may or may not even be getting end of game minutes is fiscally irresponsible, especially so with the new upcoming cap rules.
Stars are going to be seeing 60-70M contracts in the near future, I don't think 20M'S for Grant is irresponsible. He's definitely worth around that range imo

You can find guys who will provide limited minutes and can contribute.
Personally, Id rather have someone like Highsmith on a cost controlled contract than have to shell out 20m for Grant

Rat Piley thinks he’s going to dump Simmons on me and get to keep Lowry’s expiring for tax relief or to flip it for vet contributors at the deadline.
He hasn’t yet figured out that this script ends with him emptying the cupboard and wearing that Simmons ball and chain.

You get what you pay for; if your team is talented enough to fill in the gap in talent that you have between Grant and Highsmith, then go for it. But again, you get what you pay for

Yep, and it would be great if Lowry could finally get his cookie monster behind in shape this season for one last go.
And who knows, if they win the chip, he could be brought back on a team friendly deal to finish out his career.

Lillard/Simmons
Richardson/McGruder
Jimmy/Jaime
Love/Jovic/Highsmith
Bam/Bryant/ORob
If taking on Simmons is what it takes to get it done, it also means someone is taking Duncan from us which is a year longer. Simmons as a giant expiring next year after playing on a championship caliber team in our culture is not a terrible piece next offseason

Defensively, is there much of a difference between the 2 players?
Corner shooting is the key area of seperation but Highsmith seemed to shoot a good percentage in limited playoff mintues this past season (I'd have to check to confirm though)

Im sure its being considered the same way a Dame trade is being considered centered on Bam and Butler

Just remember fellas.
If we don't get Dame, it's not because of us, but because Portland has trash people in their FO.
Still, things are looking good for us.

Small sample size but Highsmith shot 8-16 (50%) from three during the playoffs this past season
Grant shot 25-53 (45%) from three during the playoffs.

Seriously, screw portland and screw ben simmons reclamation projects... We have our young core and we deserve guys like ja Morant for these hauls, not soon to be washed Lillards although, hey, he's a great player and we would expand his longevity here
