First, we are not treadmill organization. We have to face the facts of that we are in the down side of success. Everything has a cost associated. We got depleted of talent and assets. I think we are trying to gather now. But you't accept losing, which is goes against my ProTankism, within the organization.

Its too earlier to jump the gun, but really really frustrating. I am waiting after the trading deadline. So far the one thing proven to me is that Spo is the phucking man... There is no doubt in my mind, his proven himself last and this season. Add to the phucking awesomeness that is heat player development too.

I do not know what will happen but treadmill isn't one of those options listed nor is there any none of above. Enjoying the journey 8-)

And nothing to show for it.

The point is at no point in the last 10 years have they been a 10 seed. If the choice is being in the playoffs for the next 10 years regardless of the end result or being at home for the next 10, I'll happily take the former.


That was absolutely not the point of any of my posts. But if you want to argue semantics, let me break it down reallyyyyy slow and methodical so you can finally understand.

I don't want Heat to be either:

a) 10th seed for the next decade

OR

b) like Hawks, who for the past 3 decades have either missed the playoffs or accomplished literally nothing when they made it there

Does this work for you?

Now how hard was that to not use allegories to try and get a point across? Too dumb for your own good

I think our team philosophy has always been clear. If you coach for Pat Riley you are expected to win games. The players he hires are inculcated in the feverish desire to win. We are the most hated team in the league for a reason.

I am actually really excited about what we've done with Waiters & Dragic. I doubt any team in the league wants to play us tomorrow, and yeah, we don't really have to win anymore, except... well... I guess I'd like to beat the Cavs this year too. That would be fun too.

We have some really tough choices ahead. We probably should make an effort to keep Waiters now. I've never been a fan. I've been an anti-fan, but the young man has talent, and guess what? He is not very old either. 7 months older than TJ.

I can't believe what we'd be doing with Winslow, TJ, and Josh Richardson back. Add a draft pick in the off-season. Spend the money we currently pay Chris Bosh, and damn...

It's not true though. They aren't that similar. I am impressed with Reed's game and have been a fan for a long time, but we need Whiteside. What we've found, though, is a powerful member of a future front court, but he's not a starter on a championship team.

Whiteside might be.

He stays if Whiteside is dealt i'm assuming. I think he's making Whiteside somewhat expendable tbh.

I know nothing about Whiteside trade rumors, but yeah we MUST resign Weed if that's the case. Personally, I would like to keep both of them panda :)

Same but they probably end up passing and giving Keith Benson a shot. The mid level non tax payer would probably end up going to JJ.

How hard was it to understand right off the bat what I meant by saying I don't want Heat to suck like Hawks? Now be a good boy and run off to their board, nobody here cares that they were a little better than 10th seed.
