2025 Offseason Season Thread Vol. 2

If we give up any draft capital for KD, then this organization is inching as close as it ever has to Dolphins' level of irrelevancy.
Couple that with paying Herro a substantial amount of money for an extension - I do not see how this organization can legitimiately compete in the East let alone the NBA. Tatum injury or not.

The Heat can build a championship team with just two trades. 1st trade: Wiggins, JJJ, 1st round pick and pick swap for Durant. 2nd trade: Rozier and 1st round pick for Lonzo Ball.

Ball / Davion
Herro / Pelle / Burks
Durant / Highsmith
Bam / Jovic / Anderson
Ware / Love

Our front office lost its touch, or the other teams are unwilling to deal with Pat.

So we should comment more or less?

As of 2:00 pm MST, we are discontinuing any discussions with Miami and are focusing exclusively on Houston, San Antonio, Minnesota, Toronto, and two unnamed desperate mystery teams.

Deal should get done soon.

Sucks for y’all.

Xoxo.

Steven Adams extension has put Houston in the 1st apron. Trying to figure out what the gymnastics are that makes them favorite.

Rockets have always been the favorites because they have the players and picks the Suns want.

I rather add Collin Sexton + Jon Collins + Quentin Grimes Then 37 YO Durant.

More depth, youth, hunger and will cost a lot less.

Houston now needs a 3rd team being in the apron after the Adams deal. FVV would have to be included

Houston has until 6/29 to release Jock Landale to cut 8 mil from there books that gets them 1.5 mil above tax line. It’s also one less salary to put in trade. Is Houston going to trade FVV, Whitmore, and Eason?

Nothing. It's just vibes. Same as many of the tickers in our stock market today lol. Pure vibes based. Houston could very well get him, but I wouldn't read into odds too hard.

Not many want to dig into the cap machinations on this. But it def is a factor in Miami's favor. Can't get too cute with it tho. Maybe Miami is holding onto a young piece and waiting until closer to draft to "concede" to get deal done. Or maybe Miami let's someone else offer more and loses out...

Well I mean Wiggins, Jovic/Jaime, and a 1st matches almost exactly what they’re asking for…..

i guess this what the owner meant when he said he was going to be more hands on. this is more about ego and him listening to the media calling our offers trash and not thinkin logically

I believe these young new FO execs are watching social media for their beliefs
