The “only miami” was already worn out by Dame. Lightening won’t strike twice. Maybe a prayer trade for Durant that includes Herro, Jovic, and Robinson going in a 3 teamer. Maybe Dame but most likely not.

Mitchell has leverage. He's a free agent after next season, so he probably gets a strong say in where he goes.


Sorta only if one believes Michelle will take a a huge pay cut to come here. Money talks and hope walks.

Durant in three team deal is the only hope I see for the next 2 seasons. Even then you are betting on 35-36 year olds Durant and Butler to carry the team come playoff time. They're 8-9 years older than Tatum and Brown! Not so good.

There were 3 dark years.... one year of tanking and two years of Wade and Titos. Wade was 26 that year, Bam is 26 this year. It took 3 years to get competent players around Wade (Lebron and Bosh). We may be looking at 3 years of Bam and Titos.

No way! We can't live like that.

We’re going to be right in the thick of it, Mitchell is our top target. Stay tuned



Another little guy, I’m good on Mitchell. Unless we give up nothing to get him

Is that in China? I don't want him anywhere close enough to tempt Spo into putting him into an elimination game :banghead: :banghead:

Some did not want to listen. You can’t have a player like that on the team that Spo is tempted to overplay. He did it all the time with McGruder who was Spo’s starting SF at 6’5 190

Role players broskie, role players that exceed expectations at times but if you don't have the main core you get this.

+1 The only viable path to a meaningful rebuild seems to involve leveraging Bam as a trade asset, although not sure if Riley is open to this approach. Otherwise, any moves made would likely result in lateral and sidegrade at best, potentially hindering our ability to secure a high draft pick. Rozier, Duncan and Herro tanked their values smh.

Without Butler and Terry we are a lottery team, you fool. Just like without Jokic and Murray, the Nuggets would be a lottery team.

Not all bad though. He's a -10 in a game we are going to lose by 30+ playing only 24 minutes. 8/7/4 is good for what is expected from him. Would have been nice if he had made some 3s though
