If we make no other trades I think we need a 3/4 now for that last spot. We seem pretty set at guard.

Nick Arison and Andy are the guys in charge, I couldn’t be more proud to say they’re leading my front office right now.

Are we sure we want one? Jovic is the backup PF and Bam is the backup center, we only go 3 deep there then have an injury insurance guy basically

C Ware
PF/C Bam PF Jovic PF Keshad Johnson

Maybe bring back Thomas Bryant?

They might like the big from Michigan to develop there, who knows. I still think we have 1-2 more moves coming soon

For the 14 guys on full contracts:

Davion, Larson, Kasparas, Rozier
Herro, Powell
Wiggins, Highsmith, Keshad, Jaime
Bam, Jovic, Fontecchio
Ware, ?

Scratch 3/4. I’m thinking 4/5 now.

Now move frail Wiggins for the LA poo poo platter

I kinda like Thomas Bryant's energy he brings on the bench. I know they like the 2 way big but I think he still has a ways to go and should be nothing more then the Skyforce's big this year. Just like how the treated Keshad Johnson last year

Maxi Kleber could be the incoming big here soon in a deal with the Lakers.

Send it in.

That is actually pretty balanced.

Defense
Ball creation
Shooting

And not that expensive outside of ja and bam. With the way scoring guards are getting paid, u could probably re-up powell for less than 20M/year.
Good role player coverage around ja, probably can't script it any better.

You could also replace ja with fox (who might be more attainable).

I like Norman Powell but I'm really starting to wonder how many games yall watch when saying he's a dog on defense.

Great move for Miami.

Powel is a very good player and he can shoot the 3.

Lets see what is coming next.
Just to mention Powel plays the same position with Herro.

Can they coexist in the lineup?
Maybe yes or maybe Herro is the main asset of a bigger trade

Lol

I’m just glad we now have someone else besides Herro who can score the ball. This should help with some of those dry spells and give Spo more options with lineups he can cook up. And we lost nothing of value so thats a win
