Herro has one good half season where he hasnt been injured YET and suddenly he is untradeable.. this guy has been as unreliable as Butler. He is prone to injury, suddenly playing good to try to get a super max extension. He has missed crucial games, even a NBA Finals run he was not available, and we dont even know whats to come the rest of this season.

If the Kings are crazy enough to offer Fox to us for Herro and other asset, say JJJ and draft picks.. im taking that deal and im leaving thinking i just committed robbery out of the biggest bank in the world in broad daylight.

Come the **** on guys yall cant be serious. We couldnt even get Damian Lilliard for Herro and other assets not too long ago, they laughed at us, no team in the league would send us even a highly protected first for him when we tried, and now hes untouchable for Fox because a half good season?

Ive seen this episode before in the NFL and the NBA, where athletes like Herro play their asses off (after a couple of very mediocre seasons) right before an extension period which his agent is going to ask for this upcoming offseason, they end up hitting the lotto and regress back.


Please kings, be crazy and call us for herro jjj and picks. I beg you. Herro is the next Curry!!! Please.. you know you want him..

The Godfather literally has this man Rich Paul at gunpoint until he gets this deal done. He’s learned from the Dame fiasco

It’s happening, 3ammy.

Get ready.

I’d say the deal is 90% done, Fox likely lands in Miami tonight in time to debut against the Cavs


You guys love to torture yourselves. There is more chances that D Wade comes out of retirement to play the 5 for us than for Fox to land here. It just isn’t going to happen. It never does.

Riley liked Randle in the off-season, but I bet that has now changed that Ware has emerged earlier than expected.

Confirmed he has a preferred destination, but didn’t say what it is.

Riley’s megabrain plan advances inexorably.

Randle is 2 time all NBA. U give up anything and everything to get a player like that. Put it all on the table. No ragrets.

He'll kill the flow of the offense Miami's trying to move to and sometimes gives no effort at all on defense. It "could" have worked with Butler and Bam, it's not going to work with a way worse defense around him. You'll only have one of Bam or Ware on the court with him unless one of them will be playing SF.

Heat fans love the greener grass til they find out it's manure.

No we're not trading Herro for Fox, just get over that. Fox works here if we have Herro. He's a more under control Rozier

So we would in essence be trading Jimmy for Bruce Brown and contract fillers? Unless there is a good amount of draft capital, then that is an epically low return.

There was an article a couple years ago where they interviewed Fox and his Wife during his stay in the offseason training in Miami. She apparently really disliked it here, but there was not reasoning behind it.
