At least we got this out of the way first thing to start the day, 1 more game until they put us out of our misery

If we did totally blow it up I'd be happy as long as Spo is included in that.

Maybe this is my fault. I've usually said just no blowouts and no heartbreakers and didn't this game. This one's on me guys.

This is the over reaction on the other side. He's a massive success from where he was picked on. Any team would want him. The problem with Miami is he's miscast and the amount of money he's making. This team needs him to be the best or 2nd best player but his role is 3rd best player on a championship team. If he got was put on the market he would get offers. There is a lot of teams where Bam would put them over the top. For the 50 mil he would be making, I would like to see him being a consistent high level offensive player. But that doesn't mean his not a high impact player. And if this is who he was his whole career it would be a great success.

Anyone who thinks all we need to do is get 37 year old Kevin Durant to fix this is smoking crack. You could put KD on this roster as is without even giving up any assets we still aren’t contenders.

Their backups were the main catalyst for the easy win pretty much lol they started rolling when they came in

He's had a gawd awful year, but nah man. Who's even out there to replace him? This teams' problem is once again a lack of top tier talent.SerialChiller wrote:If we did totally blow it up I'd be happy as long as Spo is included in that.
Put Spo on the Milwaukee Bucks for ex. & they'd be up there with CLE/BOS imo.

Having watched this game, is there a single player we want to keep next year? I'd personally say Ware but that's more about about what he could potentially become rather than anything he's showed so far.
Wish we could clean house and start again.

Thank you for that statement. KD isn't going to solve the problems we have

If it's a full rebuild who cares, we need a coach to play the young guys, he won't.

I still think we will probably go with Bam, Tyler, and Ware. Not that I agree or disagree, just think that's what we'll look to do.
I just know I want Wiggins off this team immediately. Duncan too.

I know Rozier got hurt before this game but even if he wasn't hurt he wouldn't have touched the floor. I can't remember a trade where a team gave a 1st round pick where the player they got back was unplayable the next season in the playoffs.
