Who sees all those empty seats in Miami? Heat Culture is such a marketing gimmick.

Our backcourt would be unstoppable you can't double either one of JB or DM. With OG backing them up on D. We would need to trade for a defensive 4 that can shoot 3s
I feel like that’s not a given. I mean, look at the Cavs now. Some blame has to be allocated onto Mitchell for not making that work, in addition to JB, Garland, and the FO.
Not even a just an issue with Mitchell too. Look at Dame and his inability to make it work with Giannis. That’s supposed to be an ideal fit, too, but both guys are actually point guards.

From the Cavs Athletics writer
https://theathletic.com/5454160/2024/04/27/donovan-mitchell-future-cavaliers-magic-nba-playoffs/
Mitchell, though, has now played in nine playoff games for the Cavs. The team has won just three, and he was really good in just two — when he posted 30 points in a Game 1 triumph over the Magic, and in Game 1 last year against the Knicks when he posted 38 points in a close loss...
In two games on the Magic’s home court, Mitchell scored 13 points Thursday in the most lopsided loss in Cavs’ playoff history. And Saturday, with his team sitting on a nine-point halftime lead, Mitchell couldn’t add to the 18 points he accumulated through two quarters. He took four shots in the second half, missed them all, committed four turnovers and was on the court for 11 of the 12 worst minutes any good Cavs team has ever played — a third quarter Saturday in which they were outscored 37-10 and stunned to the point of blank stares and few answers.
...
In four games against Orlando this postseason, Mitchell has more turnovers (15) than 3s (seven). He’s shooting 25 percent from long range. In that playoff series against the Knicks last April that left such a deep, dark bruise on the entire organization, he averaged 23 points (he’s averaging 21 in this series) on 29 percent shooting from 3-point range and 3.8 turnovers per game (like he is now).

Bridges and Mitchell tanking their trade value like they are a team trying to draft Wemby just to grease their path to the Knicks this summer...
If you'd rather see your team fail so you can be right
...you are a fan of your opinion not the team.

Re: Around the NBA - Continued to bloodcl--
The Booker takes in here are so ridiculously bad, its really on another level.
Dude is averaging 27.5/5.2/5.1 (48.3/38.5/89.5 splits!!)on 46 career playoff games, was the best player on a finals team and is a top 10 player for multiple years now. but hey he sucks and lets not trade for him cause he had 2-3 medicore games

They only have two good players. I think they’re very bad.

i'm shocked that this place thinks it's too good for one of the top 5 players at their position.
