How optimistic are you going forward? **POLL**

Between Haslem saying he's probably going to keep "playing" & Riley saying he's not going out like "that" you can tell what the future holds.

What could be worse is to watch Tyler Johnson turning the Suns around and playing effectively on a different team.

Low IQ's, limited skills, Inconsistent chemistry, clumsy sloppy play and trailing games often will be in our future with this limited roster & coaching staff.. Rebuilding thru the G-League = Treadmill.

8 posters have us in the eastern conference finals by or before 2021-2022? Obviously all of us haven't had the optimism beat out of us yet.

Well, we'll have alot of cap space in 2021-2022, unless we add more bad contracs in 2020-2021.

The top free agents will be :

31 YO Damian Lillard

29 YO Rudy Gobert

28 YO Bradley Beal

26 YO Giannis Antetokounmpo

29 YO Victor Oladipo

28 YO Otto Porter Jr.

30 YO C.J. McCollum

31 YO Gordon Hayward

If we can get a Lilard/Beal combo going, or a Giannis/Oladipo duo going...we might have something if our young guys progress and we add some real talent in the next 2 drafts.

I think this should be our ultimate goal is to ride this out until 2021. We have our picks this year and 2020 and we should hope those are both prime lotto picks. We will have a ton of cap space to surround all of our young talent with two prime veteran max contracts. Should be enough to at very least vault us into the top 5 in the East and give the worst 2021 pick possible to the Clippers.

Been saying this. Giannis should be our main target, we need to do anything and everything to make him a Heat cornerstone. We all have to pray it doesn't work out in Mil these next two years and he looks elsewhere. IF Riley wants one more ring before he retires, the Greek Freak is his only shot at this last hooray. There are no other free agents that make us win the Finals other than a prime Giannis. Only other guys that put us IN the finals are Kawhi and AD which most likely aren't happening.

If we strike out on Giannis than all hope is gone for the foreseeable future and I mean 5-10 years unless some unbelievable trade happens.
