Andy is the GM so that would kinda make sense.

The guys that are agreeing to new deals are getting deals that are very reasonable and they are pretty good players. Dorian Finney Smith, Clarkson, Ty Jerome, etc.

Come on Heat! Wake up!!!!!

Bout time the market finally corrected itself. These deals were appreciating faster than a run down home in 2021 south florida.

For the first time in years I'm not upset at all with the lack of moves we're making.

I am expecting nothing from this offseason. Maybe some nothing trades like Wiggins for a ham sandwich. IMO, the goal of this season will be to reset and develop. Now watch me be completely wrong and they land Giannis.

Simon is a genuine talent finder. He's legit.

This only further convinces me that he has a new deal in place with the Heat.

Just moved to the west coast 3-4 weeks ago. Not sure I’ll ever get used to the time change. I’ve called my friends and family so many times in the middle of the night already.

The time change is definitely an adjustment. Don’t think i could ever move out here. On a side note first time in San Diego and damn it’s beautiful out here. I’ll be in LA in two days to fly back home so i’ll try to close out the Wiggins deal with the Rob Lowe look a like before i head back home lol


Do not bring Rui or Vincent back with you or you're banned.

But seriously. NO RUI, NO VINCENT!

Do these MFers watch the games or not? Because I don't know how you can watch Miami basketball and be like, "I like what we got."

Duncan probably got bad advice on opting out.. even if we exercised the early termination he would have made more money.. and he probably regrets it with the way free agency has been working against him…

but its good for us because he was massively overpaid.. he is a 5 million per year player at best..

We're gonna read the same story about how Anthony Carter's agent paid him back because he "f'd up."

https://sports.yahoo.com/anthony-carter-is-still-paid-yearly-by-his-agent-13-years-after-a-contract-mishap-210455760.html


FA has been weird, man. Gary Trent signed a 2-year $7.5M deal while Kennard signed a 1-year, $11M deal. So many guys signing for under $10M/season and here is Miami giving D Mitchell $12M/year.

Wiggins clearly is the best fit for the Lakers by far. They can’t go into next season with Rui as the sole wing defender. They should be banging down our door for Wiggins.
