To be honest, I don’t know what the Heat offer is either, but I can assure you it’s total bull chit.

Get KD and then figure out how to add Brook Lopez.
yes we did but also were in the play ins as well. we got closed with jimmy but i think that durant wouldnt have the supporting cast to do much. are the heat roster better than phoenix? they got just one more 1 than us last seasonLennyzinho wrote:eddieheatfan wrote:Lennyzinho wrote:
I somewhat disagree.
With Herro making 30M next two years, there's a window to add a player like durant and then derozan and give this team that window to compete with bam davion ware etc.
If they dont get Durant than adding derozan or anyone else is just a dumb asset losing lateral move. And should just let the young dudes play, trade for assets if possible, get a good draft pick next draft and have cap for 2026-2027. Doing that, you lose one of those Herro years making relatively small amount. I wouldn't understand the appeal of getting Durant next year if PHX for whatever reason trades him to a team he doesnt want to play for, unless we intend on trading Herro away, cuz a core of max herro bam durant isn't winning anything.
We competed with Jimmy multiple times did we not? I think Durant is better than Jimmy and fits alongside Bam better. Davion has been a great find. Herro had his best year yet and is improving YoY. The East is weaker than ever, granted Magic and Pistons are on the upswing while Bucks and Celtics are injured. I didnt say we'd be favorites or win it all, but the disbelief is weird.
Jimmy sabotaged the team last year. We should've tanked. But thinking adding Durant and Derozan and sending out JJJ Wiggins Rozier Duncan whoever else doesnt make us a solid playoff team is weird.

The offer probably looks something like: Rozier, Duncan, Anderson, JJJ, and the 20th pick.
A third team would likely need to get involved. Something along these lines:
Suns:
Claxton
Robinson (likely to be waived)
JJJ
20th pick
Heat:
Kevin Durant
Nets:
Anderson
Rozier
It looks like Riley is high on Ware and Jovic. For the Nets, taking on an expiring contract for a rebuilding team makes sense, especially if it lets them get out of Claxton’s three remaining years early. They might ask for additional draft picks.
If Riley can get this done without giving up Ware, Wiggins and Jovic then build his statue right away.

2) Hold firm with the Suns, you either get him in a bargain or we walk away. You simply can't overpay for a 37YO, don't care who it is or what he was 4 years ago. You pay for future production, not past one and not for name recognition.
3) Regardless we should explore another move and get Sexton and Collins out of Utah, shouldn't cost much and could help our miserable offense.
4) I'm very open to trading Herro if we can't extend him for around 30 per. This front office better have some foresight with Herro, because falling a sleep on the Jimmy situation and his extension killed us in a bunch of ways, so they **** better handle the Herro extension or trade a head of time.
