2025 Offseason Season Thread Vol. 3

In hindsight, you can argue it's a bad move for the long term, but if he doesn't get hurt, nobody says anything. He took a risk, and it backfired. It is what it is.

If he made the decision and wasnt lied to about his injury than yea, I would have no problem with it. But if they misled him about his injury, ohhh hell naw naw naw naw lawsuit coming

Yah, that would be awful if they misled him.

[Crazy-Canuck]

Wiggins is a good player. I don’t know what the **** happened to him last year.

He looked like he was in a coma.

He played injured for the last 2 months. Just look up the injuries (2: high ankle sprain and hamstring tendinopathy) and then average recovery time. He returned way too fast, especially the tendinopathy which can take up to a year to recover. He came back after a week? Both injuries kill stability and mobility for most normal people. It's twice fold for athletes who need their athleticism. It was obvious if you watched his physical mobility on the court.

DeRozan looks like a good fit on the Clippers. Wiggins good fit on the Lakers

There's just no way he didn't know the risks. I mean everyone else knew it, how could he not? The guy went out on his shield.

So why did the Heat acquire him? I get that overpaid and injured fits right in in Miami, but damn. I guess our hands really were tied by Butler scaring off potential suitors.

Now you're saying he has an injury that could take up to a year to fully recover from? This is after Rozier developed a severe neck injury the year before. Crazy.

[HeatingUp3]

I wonder how Pat think we could actually be a contender with this roster and the assets we have.
We needed to start a rebuiled like one season ago. But our front office doesn't want to even hear that word, what makes us mid for the future to come.

Bring the GOAT home, we’re nothing without him.

Both injuries happened as a heat. If he had a low ankle sprain vs a high ankle sprain or tendinitis vs tendinopathy. The recovery times are vastly different. He got the worse prognosis on both injuries. It's just bad luck. I don't blame the training staff either. I'd bet everything that wiggins pushed to come back sooner just like when he wore a flack jacket to play with broken ribs on 1 day rest. He risked his career on that one.

Gotcha, must be our luck. Just can't catch a break recently.

Mathurin is actually going to have a big year next year, he’ll average 20 something if Rick will allow it

[MettaWorldPanda]

Yeah Mathurin will have a big contract year with Hali out

Actually wish we had him at the 3 instead of JJJ and/or Jovic lol

Wonder if Lamelo could be had

Charlotte needs shooting and probably wont draft a shooter at 4.

If they hypothetically like Fears then LaMelo is ripe for the pickin

Herro Wiggins pick for Melo and Bridges

Could involve a 3rd team to move Wiggins to like LA and maybe even get Knecht out of it

There’s rumors going around that agents with players in the top 5 of draft don’t want there players going to Charlotte because of LaMelo lol. The Heat don’t want to deal with that

[MettaWorldPanda]

Congrats to OKC. Was never rooting for the Pacers.

[3ammy3uck3ts]

I don’t think Lamelo has any intentions of ever winning basketball games tbh.

Why Barry, so we can try to strong arm them and then make excuses when they don’t go for it?

Mia doesnt have that problem now do they lol

The problem they do have is a gapping hole on the roster for a primary ball handler and an elite passer who can make Bam and Ware better.

[insfo]

Dang, with OKC winning, I doubt they break the bank for Bam. Who else has 6 1st round picks??

[Vertical Limit]

Well season is officially over. Cant wait for summer league. JJJ Jovic Ware and Larrson
