Good for him. I like seeing players getting paid and even overpaid. Just not by Heat. Everybody could have avoided all this pain had we done this in the summer. I hope FO gets over their feelings and commits to retire his jersey.


Retire his jersey? Are you high?

So we clogged up 2026 cap space for Wiggins but wouldn’t for Lavine?

I think Wiggins will grow on you guys. He's not a consistent superstar but he has the talent to be one on any given night lol. I expect he'll fit in seamlessly.

Coffee-man on the Warriors? Not so much.



He will give us what Oladipo couldn't

Its a business, people need to get over it. Pat Riley has done worse to players. Over his tenure he has earned the right to retire his jersey so retire his jersey. And Lebron deserves a statue

Are the Heat going to end up with another guy who can atleast handle the ball?

Wiggins, Bam, Ware with Jovic off the bench is a nice front court.
But if Schroeder gets move still leaves you with Herro and Rozier as primary ball handlers.

This rag tag group reminds me of the team that was a healthy Hassan away from making the ECF in 2016. We could still be a player on the buyout market.

Congrats for getting that done.

You all should make a separate thread for just this deal.

I don’t get the Tucker hate. He had a career year in our system. Wiggins, Tucker, defense, physicality. Exactly what this team has been missing. Let’s see what puck we got

Schroeder is going to Utah.
Heat give up Butler and get back Wiggins, PJ Tucker, and protected first round pick. Is the first round pick protected like Heat's 2025 pick so that it could potentially be a lottery pick?

I'd give the trade a B or B-. Heat weren't going to get anyone great for Butler with his age and "demands". I think Schroeder would have helped with the lack of ball handling on this roster.
