Oh damn, good move for the Bucks. I guess Giannis will probably stay now. Not that Turner gets them any closer to a championship but it gives them something to at least look forward to and I think that’s all Giannis needed. Ultimately I don’t think he wants to leave

Giannis coulve jumped ship and been added to the post bubble team instead of Lowry. We had space.

That'll forever go down in Heat history as a "what if" moment. Wed be 4 time champs or some chit right now in the Giannis era.

IIRC wasn't the issue that we had extended Bam a summer before we technically had to which compromised 2021 cap space?


Yeah. We rewarded Bam instead of maxing out our options. Was super weird. Maybe Giannis had already relayed his decision and we pivoted.

Its wild how we then got Lowry and he basically face planted. Then we upgraded to Rozier who has been the worst acquisition in NBA history.

Meanwhile, Giannis got a title and we got Cronined, lol.

No worries though. I love our squad and potential atm as Im a much bigger fan of homegrown talent. Thats why Im always on the tankwagon.


Your last paragraph is worthy of a ‘100’ emoji!!!

This is the year for that!! Especially if we can flip Wiggins and Rozier into another FRP and/or we can somehow get a ‘27 FRP, our future will finally be fully in our control again! This is the year to let our youth have hard knocks and growing pains as they work on things to grow as a unit and as individual players thrown into the fire.

Turner isn’t as good as prime Lopez on either end of the court but he’s somewhat the same style of player

Pacers badly need a center now, they have 4 1sts. If we were fully embracing the youth movement and trying to get into the Peterson/AJ sweepstakes it wouldn’t be a bad idea to reach out and see if they want to trade for Bam

Bucks are waiving Lilliard. Let’s get him for the minimum. Screw you Cronin

If we do bring in Dame, it’s basically Danny Granger Part 2, no? A shell of a player hollowed out by injuries?

Naaah. It's gonna take 2 seasons to be fully healed. And he'll never get back to what he was. Lets focus on developing Kasparas

If Giannis signs that extension, trade Herro/Bam immediately. I don't want to hear about pivot to Doncic 2028 or Wemby 2031 or Cooper 2037 or AJ 2038
