You're not comprehending. Teams sell those picks out right. You don't have to trade 3 second rounders to get one second rounder. Maybe Riley did in this situation, but that's because he's an easy mark. He trades draft picks easier than any other GM today. Heck, he traded 1st rounders for Bosh and Lebron....when they were free agents!!! He's cuckoo, FTH. Come to think of it, I can see why you're down with it.

Kid already knew he was going to be a Heat Lifer :o

Riley probably told him he was being drafted by us before the draft

Dom, how do we feel about Grizz?

Ja-JJJ-Clarke? Unbelievable luck. I don't even kno who their current coach is

So much to take in from their offseason. Ja reaches his potential and that's a wil' team. Still a bit concerned about Ja's turnovers but he's electric. Griz might be a polar Hawks nexxt SZN

The Pacers obviously wanted picks, not money. So are we keeping 3 late SRPs or trading them for Okpala?

I think they catapulted their rebuild with this draft. Do they have a 1st rounder next year? They could use one more really good player.

I'm going to be watching two teams this coming season. Miami, and NOP. I'm actually looking forward to some elite level rim running with Zion and Jaxson being fed by Ball.

Very hard to take in, all the moves they've made

Got decent shooters in Avery Bradley, Crowder, Korver, even chubby little Grayson

Then great rooks in Clarke and Morant. Feels like it all happened accidentally. A lot of excite young teams, def going to see Pel.

We traded all those picks so that we could give Lebron and Bosh an extra year that they could opt out of. The good news is that they didn't opt out of that year ... because they opted out the year before. :lol:

Lebron scrambled Pat's mind. Even before he got here, just the thought of possibly signing Lebron in 2010 led to the roster mismanagement during Wade's peak years.

Yep. If we wanted to trade assets to give them an extra year, then they shouldn't have given them an opt out. Crazy stuff. Living in the moment.

Can I jump on the KZ bandwagon?

I got shotgun


Since Metta got me on the record ranking him 10 overall for us, I assume I’m in the driver seat?

Good enough for 2nd on the board....! I didn't enter the linked competition, and many of you didn't either. If you beat my score, then feel free to boot me down the rankings;)

Easy to dislike his negative wingspan. However, that lack of length contributes to the physics and high efficiency of his shot release. Hopefully the chip on his shoulder he plays with comes out in a big way for us. He already looks like he's easily our best shooter from anywhere on the floor.

Theo Maledon is a name to remember. Kid looks real good. Efficient shooter from everywhere. Ranked top 5 currently in 2020 mocks.

Herro's wingspan is not 6-3.25.

1.He got measured at least twice before the combine and UK measured him having a wingspan of 6-4.5 while his wingspan was measured to be 6-3.75 at a basketball minicamp in October of 2017.

2.His standing reach is 8-4.5 while Miye Oni's standing reach is also 8-4.5 and Oni's height is listed as being 6-5.75(with shoes) with a wingspan of 6-10.75.

3.That kind of height and wingspan difference is very rare.

My guess, Herro's wingspan is around 6-4.5.
