Do they have a 1st rounder that can unlock future picks for us?

Also any expirings or promising young prospects? (Obviously don’t expect Reeves)

I'll be fine getting a prospect like Knecht back in any deal for Wiggins. Hachimura, Vincent, and Knecht for Wiggins and Highsmith is a trade match


You know I was a Knecht guy in the draft last year. I'd be happy to take him in a Wiggins deal as a more athletic Duncan replacement.

Yeah I'm not going to be too picky here considering the Lakers would be giving us two expiring's opening up 30 more million for us on next year's cap

I was very shocked we didn’t take him

Dalton Knecht, a 2024 NBA draftee, participated in pre-draft workouts with the Miami Heat. He was seen working out with Miami NBA Trainer Jorge Milo alongside Tristan Da Silva, showcasing their athleticism. The Lakers ultimately drafted Knecht 17th overall.

This is obviously a joke. But if some bizarre reason it’s serious it is pure example of why regular fans shldn’t go anywhere near our organization.
If u don't want 2b here, the way things work, u don't like it, then don't b here. U have 2 stand on something. If Miami ain't standing on something, they become alot of these organizations trying 2 find their identity. This is the culture, bro -Wade

6/29 Duncan opts into ETO then the clock starts ticking from there till July 8th. He might not be moved until free agency. Maybe possible S&T type of move.

You got this wrong, Boston would be the ones sending us 3 1sts and Pritchard along with Brown for just Herro let alone all the other assets you listed.

Welcome to the new era, where draft picks are crucial for avoiding the second apron. If we can move Wiggins to a Western Conference team and get a pick in return, that’s a win.

Laker fans want Andrew Wiggins. We definitely have an interested trade partner. They only have a 2031 1st to trade but Dalton Knecht would be a good young piece in itself to get back

I can only imagine how much made up info Greg Sylvander has reported in that time. And how many times he’s indicated a deal would happen but didn’t because he is an engagement farmer

Amazing how he's still getting posted here. Quoting 5 Reason Scams should be an instant ban at this point.

Why do the Lakers want Wiggins all of a sudden?

They need defense around Luka, and Wiggins seems like the most realistic target.

California weather might suit him better, he just feels out of place in Miami, though maybe that’s just my take.

It could just be a matter of needing more time to adjust to a city like Miami.

Some here completely undervaluing Herro & extremely underselling him like there wld be vry minimal interest or vry low return for a consistently improving young all-star, who just averaged 23.9 points, 5.5 assists and 5.2 rebounds & has already won Sixth Man of the Year award & 3pt comp.

Some who under value Tyler are our vry own admins/mods. This is the issue w/ this forum & fan base. Only we sh*t on our own. Inviting other twits to offer their 2cents.

There have been worse players other teams have overpaid for. Tyler will be just fine in the open market even w/ our very own fans questioning his stock & brand.
If u don't want 2b here, the way things work, u don't like it, then don't b here. U have 2 stand on something. If Miami ain't standing on something, they become alot of these organizations trying 2 find their identity. This is the culture, bro -Wade

baffled that Celtics are way over the cap with no leverage yet they still get teams to bail them out with decent assets yet we cant move on from Rozier or Duncan and have done basically nothing the last few years. Baffles me.
1. Herro 2. Bol Bol 3. Seko 4. Bruno
unless we trade up for Barrett or trade down for PJ Washington

it's almost a nice consolation to start seeing a couple these man-child fan boys being forced to start growing up. Greg is the #1 example of sniffing Nick Arison's farts, making fun of fans that wanted better asset management, and finding every chance to defend the "culture" even though it's been eroding every year.

This has been happening for FOUR years, and while fans wanted an infusion of new energy things began getting stale during that tine... he and other swore the HEAT had a plan and spent their time online policing others to "be grateful" like cult members :crazy:
