Sacrificing roster flexibility for 3 seasons in exchange for 2 FRPs isn’t a good move.
Rozier and Duncan are expiring with Duncan non guaranteed, there is no real reason to unload them unless we are using them as filler in a big deal.
People may not like it but Miami enters into a really good spot here in a year with cap and contracts, basically all the filth and waste fall of the books and we are left with the meat and potatoes that make up the current team still locked in with space to add a max player.

The only move I’d really explore right now is KD
Point is to gain the draft ammo to go after Giannis now.
Or to at least have a subsequent plan to use those pick.
It's an interesting trade idea. But I don't think Giannis will want to go from a team with no depth and 50 mil in dead money to another team with no depth and 50 mil in dead money.
He will have other options, where he'll be able to compete.
This trades guts, his depth and assets. They will have now way to add players except via draft with limited 1st round picks and no 2nd picks or g league. And once Bam extenstion kicks, they will be over 2nd apron.
Whoever trades for Giannis will be sacrificing a massive amount of depth and assets in all likelihood
Realistically, if either OKC, SA, or HOU decide to strongly bid, Mia’s got a 0.00% shot at getting him
If however OKC wins the chip and SA and Hou get preoccupied with guys like KD and Brown who won’t be as expensive to attain, then that opens the door for Mia to sneakily steal Giannis if they come out and make a nuclear level offer like Herro, Ware, and 5 FRPs or Bam n Herro and 1-2 picks
). This type of direction of a organization is usually a very bad sign. It's gonna be a very violatile revolving door situation.
