Some of you guys actually want to sign that crew? LOL WTF


What other team can we assemble that gives us a good shot at beating Golden State that we have a legit shot at assembling?

You need stars in this league to win. And with reports of Wade possibly coming back after a buyout with the Bulls or after his contract is up, Lebron being gone after next year, Paul and Melo being free agents after next year, and them all wanting to play together, The Heat and the Lakers are in the best position to land these guys.

What other team can we realistically assemble that can beat Golden State?

Soon :o


Free Agents Next Year...

Lebron James, Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, Paul George, Chris Paul, Demarcus Cousins, Carmelo Anthony, Dwayne Wade, Lamarcus Aldridge.

If we dump TJs contract. We have 2 big contracts Dragic and Whiteside..that is why I feel they should not spend too much this year only 1 year deals.


Definitely wanna keep long term money off the books, with the the exception of draft picks and Dragic/Whiteside.

Guess this guy didn't watch the Olympics. They would beat most teams in this league. We can always use them to get other stars as well.

It may be "exciting" to think about adding the Banana Boat crew, but thats mostly due to the hangover of striking out on Hayward. We don't want to go through this all over again people, trust me.

I agree but I would give JJ a fair deal, and I'd be fine with letting Waiters walk if it doesn't compromise 2018 cap flexibility.
JJ is a piece you want on a contender.

Cross of PG13 he's going to the Lakers, KD is staying with the Warriors, Westbrook is a Thunder for life and will sign the mega max, Cousins won't come to the Heat with Whiteside there, and the Heat won't sign LMA with his history of heart problems after the Chris Bosh incident.

The only realistic options from the 18' class are Wade,Lebron,Melo,and Paul.

It's just so sad, bro. I've always been down with the "In Riley We Trust" mantra, but something isn't right. We're getting avoided like the plague by the whales. Could James, Wade, and Bosh be telling people to not sign here?
For a long time it gave me nightmares,witnessing an injustice like that.It’s a constant reminder of just how unfair this world can be.I can still hear them taunting him, Silly Rabbit tricks are for kids.I mean why couldn’t they just give him some cereal?

Whiteside
Melo
Lebron
Wade
Paul

Zaza
Draymond
Durant
Thompson
Curry

I think that Heat team could definitely make it a 7 game series.

This team had fight and chemistry.... Hayward was interesting, but he likely did not fit that fun living group.

Hell we watched Lebron, Bosh and Wade loose games trying to mesh together....

Are we really going to write off a 30-11 bunch when they clicked?

Yeah that team went .500 because they where slow to mesh and got hurt.... but they still went 30-11 when it was working.

We can bring that back, they likely will gell more, and the team can add additional parts to that team.

We already get Bam and Winslow to sprinkle in when needed... let's see what else Pat can do.,

Let's get into three playoffs and see if Spo can find a way to punish teams with whiteside and Bam

So that's all it takes to beat Riley's pitch, now. "Come play for me I used to coach you." Sad.

we are left with a ton of cap space and the same lack of draft picks we have right now.
