This board has been pretty wrong about everything this season lol
All Mia has to do to turn things around is to do the opposite of what this board thinks

Re: 2025 Offseason Season Thread Vol. 3
I really hope we draft a PG with the 20th pick. I’m sure Boston is going to find anyone but Miami to trade Jrue too.

Nope. They are just going to keep drafting and developing and finding right fit vets like Caruso.

LaMelo Ball is the humble star Pat Riley was talking about at the press conference.

This is our best bet right here. Lakers twitter is all about getting Wiggins. Bring Gabe back home.

Re: 2025 Offseason Season Thread Vol. 3
I am looking around this league really unsure of what we can do to legit compete for a title, and I don't see us going into next year in the middle of the pack.
Ja? Looking at the Grizzlies cap structure, they seem to be all in on expirings and picks. Not sure we can give them enough to get Ja though, but seems like he's BPA.
Trae Young? Does a Young/Herro back court really do it for ya?
Harden? Kawhi? Don't think Ballmer is going to blow that up just yet, and definitely not for what we're offering.
I really don't think Derozan moves the needle unless with Derozan and Sabonis.
Now that you know what Phx likes, do you ask about Booker? I don't see it.
New Orleans seems to be keeping Zion.
You're not getting Giannis, don't even entertain it.
I wonder if the kings would do something like Sabonis and Derozan for Wiggins, Terry (both expirings), 2 of Ware, Jaquez, Jovic, KLove (to make money work), #20 and 1 future pick.
Davion
Herro
Demar
Bam
Sabonis
Looking at all these packages, unless it's something outside the box (which I don't see us doing), I'd rather us completely blow it up and start over. Get as many picks as possible for Bam and Herro and start over with all expiring contracts. Try to completely reset the books for Luka or Ant.
Either go for it or start over.

He’s a damn expiring contract who has a history of doing well in our system and has a relationship with the people in this lockerroom. What are you expecting to get for Andrew Wiggins? Luka Doncic? Vincent, Hachimura, and a 2031 1st is a good offer.

I should have traded Wiggins for Luka my bad. Just trying to look at realistic possibilities but forgot Andrew Wiggins is a star. We’ll keep that 30 mil on our books next year all good

Re: 2025 Offseason Season Thread Vol. 3
I’d rather just keep Wiggins at that point. Not ready to accept that we traded the top piece of the Jimmy Butler trade for Gabe Vincent.
