Bam is peaked.

Only goes downhill from here when he starts breaking down.

Herro's a got another semi gear that he can get to, but its really dependent on playing on a team that can take the ball out of his hands.

Meanwhile, Jimmy will still be the most intelligent player of the 3 in 2 years.


Holy smokes. Let’s max him for the 2027 trivia contest then.

Mia will surely be maxing dumber players who somehow both over-dribble aimlessly and surrender their dribble too soon, fail to identify mismatches, and fail to execute when they do gain mismatch advantages.

Give me intelligence over dumb-dumb youth any day of the week if the object is to indeed win games.

Beenie it seems like you just need to follow whoever is considered the best player in the world, whoever leads the league in PPG, or whatever the next super team ends up being. You seem to be miserable otherwise

Part 1 of the quick 1 year retool, get this basketball god on the roster. Bam and Spo lock in on the recruiting pitch, front office promises to add another star to KD/Bam by the summer of 2026 at the latest.

People will give age and contract talk, I’ll give the facts. The fact is KD is still top 10 in this league and as much as you all like to point to decline, you can’t point me to where KD is noticeably declining and exactly how fast this supposed decline is supposed to happen.

Pure scorers aren’t my aim and has never really been the case

Your lazy strawman doesn’t apply to me

But I rhetorically get why it’s your go to commentary anytime I evoke Bam

You literally don’t respect any player that isn’t top 10 lol. You’re ready to tear down the entire roster because of it and claim we don’t have any assets to get a deal done when you’re just flat out wrong.

There’s no straw man to it, you’re just flat out wrong per usual.

I mean you brought him up so I’ll play off of it, you claim a player who has added something to his game each year of his career has peaked at the age of 27 lol. That’s just nonsense. Jimmy didn’t peak until 32-34

Ima sit this right here for when all the jimmy nonsense come.

Tobias Harris 15pts
Jimmy Butler 16pts
Joel Embid 21pts
Ben Simmons 13pts
JJ Redick 17pts

Pascal Siakim 11pts 92-90 Raps win!![/b]
Danny Green 2pts
Kwahia Leonard 41pts
Marc Gasol 7pts
Kyle Lowry 10pts

That roster was better than anything he had on the heat and still did'nt get to the finals. Miami coached the hell out of these teams. Hell I'd argue that Kyle Lowry had just as much of an impact as jimmy on the Miami teams

I campaigned all year up until the deadline for Lonzo; as I have in years past.

Is he a top 10 player?

Iggie was polarizing amongst the fanbase when he was here and I personally loved him because of how intelligent of a connecting piece was.

I favor high IQ players and if they just so happen to be scorers then all the better.

I also assess potential additions based on how I think they would gel with the best player(s) on the roster.

I thought Dame was a perfect fit with Jimmy n Bam because the 2-man game he could play with both.

4-17 over the past 21 games. That's a .190 winning percentage. That's not playing worse, that's the worst. That's a total collapse. That's expansion Heat bad.

Bam and Herro just can’t win games as the top dogs.

Spoelstra is **** clueless right now.

That’s a lethal combination.

Spoelstra is ducking clueless right now.

That’s a legal combination.


That’s never been the case over the years though
