2025 Regular Season Thread Vol. 7 - It’s about to go down

Elite defender, just wait until you see him

Rabid defender. Not very good offensively but doesn't really need to be. He's a solid PG

Decent shooter, elite defender, good playmaking. That’s all I want if my PG isn’t an all star level PG. I want the offensive reps to go to Bam and Herro anyways. Have to continue to build on their development, it will be key to our next championship run that they’re as comfortable as possible

Anything that gets us less minutes with Terry Rozier is a win in my book.

Spo has done more with a lot less. This is a great pickup and allows us to shelve Rozier when he’s trying to throw games

Told you PJ was a cap move. Wonder what happens with Anderson.

[Vertical Limit]

Glad we got rid of Pj Tucker.. seriously that guy is done.. dont know why hes even in the league..

i liked davion mitchell when he was on the kings and in his rookie summer league.. havent followed him on the raptors.. hes a defensive PG, a very good defensive player. Id say above average..

Spo can do his 3 point magic on davion to improve that part and we got ourselves a nice player

Hopefully I’m wrong but I’m guessing PJ was moved because they are having trouble getting out from Anderson

Gotta believe the Heat are trying to move Rozier all morning.

PG: Herro - Mitchell - Rozier
SG: Robinson - Highsmith - Larsson - Christopher
SF: Wiggins - Jaquez Jr - Burks
PF: Adebayo - Jovic - Johnson
Ce: Ware - Anderson - Love

Wonder if we might be trying to get PJ back in the buyout market. Almost certain the Raptors buy him out. Curious if this was a backdoor plan

Why. PJ Tucker is beyond washed. He's not even Shanghai Sharks washed. He's YMCA washed. Dude should retire. Besides the new rules prevent you from signing a waived player you just traded away

[MettaWorldPanda]

Team is 2.2 million away from getting under the tax. Officially out of 1st apron. Think we still trade Anderson and sign Tucker in the buyout market. Raptors will be getting Tucker from Utah making it legal to get him in the buyout market once trade is made official.

Was just about to say this, currently no minutes for Mitchell. Something has to be coming

DAmn nice.


Panda was close, same kind of player like J.Carter..we did ok here, maybe he's better then the stats, haven't watched him much.

What a colossal beep up by our front office. Accountability for thee but not for me is our motto. No one will get fired or demoted from our front office for this spectacular bleep up.

So Jimmy got the money he wanted, and now gets to play with Curry. Its really hard to spin that as a loss for him.

We got Wiggins who salary goes into 2026 and PJ Tucker. Wiggins is not bad. The pick wont be high value, and those thinking magically two mid picks this year can get you a lottery pick are straight up delusional. The most important thing is getting under the tax, thats something that will be a Win for Mickey pocket.

Honestly this whole mess could have easily been avoided by trading him earlier.

*reports come out team wants to preserve 2026 cap*
Flash: why would we do that, thats stupid?!

*team takes back Wiggins who cuts in to 2026 cap*
Flash: why would we do that, thats stupid?!

Look, if its not one thing its another. Had we traded Jimmy earlier you would have just found a way to complain about the return, because thats your schtick. We got a serviceable player at a position of need and a moveable contract, and what projects to be a pick in the mid teens. Considering our recent draft history, I will take those odds.

The whole point of not wanting to pay him was 2026 cap space. So then we go out and do the complete opposite and get a contract that goes into 2026?

So we’ll be able to play Miami Heat basketball again!

What part of moveable contract didnt you get?

I think Riley really wants him back regardless and the trade has not been officially announced yet so could be a loophole. Utah officially would be moving Tucker to Raptors.

We shouldn't see the recent Portland and Chicago games anymore with their guards having all the space in the world to comfortably walk into practice 3s until they catch fire.

I agree. PJ excels in our system, but the need for POA defense is huge. If this could have been done for Anderson, it would have.

[daviddpc]

Still one more move to get under the tax. Than the whole trade will be completed who know it might end up being a 6 team trade. Feels like a 2k game going on.
