nawwww seriously???




First time I have ever seen her, or heard her speak....I know less then 30 seconds of her life and I already got walk away vibes.


I want Spo to be happy and get what he wants in life, and seeing how he still wears his wedding ring, I hope he gets whatever it is he wants....but maybe he is better off.


I also would take JJJ doing that as something very implausible...JJJ probably has soooo many options in Miami he is likely not chasing around some Milf with kids in the house.

So ignoring JJJ and his Milf fixation, what do we think about the so called Dame package? Herro, JJJ, Jovic etc?
Herro is an Allstar but he is still not Dame, JJJ no comment, Jovic?

Thats a BIG accusation for JJJ. It would make sense if doing dirt and lookin like full cheeks.

Ima hold my judgement till more details, but damn. If true, its like Derrick Fisher all over again.

Whats the #1 rule as a man: dont smash ya boys girl

I hope y'all not gonna take that JJJ story as gospel just cause some random made a reddit post. Redditors say.....a lot of things. They're famous for being wrong. Remember the Boston Bomber incident?

If anyone on this team is the #1 option next season I will just catch the highlights. Assuming there are any.

Are you expecting the Heat to add a top 20 player this summer?

Personally no because the FO can’t get it done anymore but that should be their goal. When we miss the playoffs and unprotect those picks we have no option but to try and add a star to improve the team. Need a true number 1 option

Their goal should be to get their pick back from OKC and sell Bam/Herro/Wiggins, whoever gets 1st/2nds and blow this thing up and rebuild.

We all know this ain't happening, so it is crucial for them to miss playoffs this season and to get lucky in the 25 draft, it's looking good right now but still worried they might win the playin games.

It would be just like these idiots to put themselves in position to draft 8th worst case and then BS their way into the playoffs instead by winning the play in games. I don’t see it though and I’m hoping it doesn’t happen. I want a high pick and I want the FO to be under as much pressure as possible

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.


I too will always take the players with superior basketball IQ.

If you have a secret anti-aging formula, then you should have spoken up sooner so the Heat could have had the easiest solution possible--give it to Jimmy and agree to max out the newly rejuvenated Jimmy thru his age 37 season.

Absent that, you just seem to be emoting because you thrive in misery.

Unless you legitimately believe that the best way for the Heat to roster build to maximize their roster is to go all-in long term on investing in a player that is already at the historical cliff among NBA players for returning value as a max contract.

Like I've highlighted MANY times before, the number of NBA players that have returned value on a max salary at their age 37 season or beyond can be counted on one hand and they're exclusively top 10 players all time that are also the best scorers the game has ever seen.

I understand frustration about not getting prior deals across the finish line during Jimmy's window, but let's keep it real

The real pressure should be about building a championship team, not just avoiding the optics of giving away an unprotected pick. If the Heat miss the playoffs and land a high lottery pick, it will relieve pressure by giving them a rare shot at drafting a top-tier talent; something they haven't had a chance to do in more than a decade.

The real pressure comes from what they do with that pick. Do they use it to draft a franchise cornerstone? Do they package it with assets to trade for a star? If they waste the opportunity and still end up mediocre, that’s where the real heat (no pun intended) would come down on the FO.

So yeah, missing the playoffs in itself doesn’t increase the pressure, it actually gives them options. The real pressure is making sure they capitalize on it.

I trust them to be better next year even if it comes from internal growth alone. Herro, Ware, and Jovic should all improve and be better unless they are traded.

Return to Miami Heat
