He's one year longer than Jimmy for way less money (30 mil vs Jimmy's 60-70).

Not that I want him here even that long, but he's definitely a movable contract. He's seen around the league as a guy who will put his nose down and be the garbage pail guy, which a lot of guys aren't willing to do. It just does nothing for us because the whole roster is garbage pail guys.

I would have taken Jimmy 10/10 over this. At least you can get rid of Herro or Bam in a trade for a first option and he's still someone who can create his own offense.

I know, I know, we need to get over it. But number 1 options are hard to come by in this league. Even if they are more of a 1b than a 1a like Jimmy. He was a gift to us by Wade and we gave him up for nothing basically. With zero plan on how to replace. Its frustrating.

Honestly both sides were better together than apart. Because GSW fans are only going to look at him as a disappointment if his season is over and they end up falling short this year. But once Riley called him out after the Celtics series you knew it was going to be over, and probably get messy. Both guys with too much ego.

Jimmy would have been better off swallowing his pride and playing out his contract and/or competing in the regular seasons. Pat would have been better off swallowing his and just paying Jimmy. Now both are in messier situations, though at least Jimmy got some of the money he wasn't getting here (kinda doubtful he continues to make max money after this deal but we'll see).

All that said, either way if Jimmy stays it still probably ends in a rebuild, maybe you have one more draft pick out of it if you time trading him a bit better. But this whole thing needs to be blown up, its a miracle they transitioned out of the big 3 era without multiple lottery years, but now its time.

Jimmy got paid and that’s all that matters in the end from his perspective. No way would he be better off here playing out his contract.

If there's a team that GSW can beat without Jimmy, its the Rockets. I think they'll make it out tbh. Dunno how hobbled Jimmy will be the rest of the playoffs though.

People acting like we arent playing g league players.. bam and herro belong in the g league

Honestly though almost halftime and not even 30 points yet in today's era that's just lack of pride. Cavs aren't that much better, team has straight up quit. Embarrassing to see, but it gives the front office carte blanche to move everyone at least.

The way I see it….this is the best case scenario. Riley & Arison can’t hide behind “we’re a piece away anymore” after this.

A combination of lack of assets and FO arrogance led to this atrocity, namely trying to strong arm Jimmy instead of just trading him in the offseason when you knew you weren’t gonna extend him (rightfully so by the way, & Lord knows what we could’ve gotten for him).

Yeah that Heat culture arrogance needs to end. They think they're too good to take a step or they can win with anyone on the roster. Even good organizations tank to get ahead.

72-33

It’s like the 2025 Cavs against the 2001 Heat with this score line.

[Shewasfly]

If you're Spo what do you even do at halftime? Do you go JJ Redick and play your starters the entire second half, or do you just load the team on the bus to beat the traffic?

Nope. Empty the bench. Lakers were playing to win. This squad quit. I almost don't want them in a heat uniform again. I hate quitters. That's why I was so mad at LeBron after 2011 finals.

Nah LeBron threw those Finals. Which is even worse, and why he will forever be hated by me.

Cooper Flagg wasn’t even gonna save this team

Showcasing who they're getting rid of and benched who they're keeping? Lol

[contract]

Some fans probably arrived just in time to leave.

[HeatFanLifer]

This team was done last year. Pat Riley always hangs on a team a season too long. Agreed with the consensus here, no shame in tanking. That’s how they got Wade.

[wade44]

Look at Bam..and mfs want to make excuses like his hands aren't dirty here too

Sell. High.

Trade him..

Defensive of the year candidate, big guy.. olympic gold medals.. all star..

Sell high.. and get as much as you can .. do not set your franchise back because of some weird loyalty to kentucky basketball

Been saying this for years….

Trading him has never been an easier decision

[Heat3]

A lot of terrible performances this season including from Spo. It is a miracle they won as many games as they did.

[oreon]

Cooper Flagg wasn’t even gonna save this team

Yes he was. I would trade the whole roster for Cooper.
Cooper gives you 15 years to build a roster around him. Once you get that no 1 option, the rest of pieces are easier to get. You have Cooper on the roster, players are coming to Miami to play with him.

The night is young in Miami
