And now we’ve got InsiderFitz to go with Meat Beat, Dad Beat, Lefty Queef, Pie in the Sky, Mr. Clutch, Basketball Rehab, Sources Buttplug, and other luminaries.
Some of y’all would retweet ComeCuloInsider if his tweets said what you want to hear.

What you all don’t get is that these insiders get their info from RealGM completing the circle of pure BS all around! They read our speculation, tweet it as insider info, we see it and post it as confirmation of what we have been saying all along!
I only trust the Sardine!

bam
Covington
butler
waiters
dragic or paul
Why would we do this when Covington could be had for less than winslow and having 2 of them on the roster is better than having 1?

Because i will tell you now my opinion, he’s overachieved. We should have been in the lottery looking at the top 5 every season. This front office has built a winner twice the past two decades, when they acquired Shaq, and when they acquired Lebron and Bosh. In other words, they been successful when they acquired top tier talent.
Everyone here is so high on Butler all of a sudden... really this feels like when we acquired Dragic. It was pointless, we basically acquired the lead hamster on the treadmill. Chances are we are not going to be able to pair him with another star till 2021 unless Bam becomes that guy. This front office does things just to make a move, to be in the mix.. it’s like they just go braindead and just sign players.. why was Waiters, James Johnson, Tyler Johnson and Olynyk signed again? And fine sign them, but why on that size and length of deal? Who were we bidding against these must have talents?
Let’s ask this front office to build a team that can win 50 games like the Nuggets or the Spurs have over the last decade without a first tier star - that’s a challenge our front office has yet to complete. And this is the East we are talking about, the Nuggets and Spurs have it tougher in the West according to what everybody says.
So yeah, i think we got to look at the hand Spo has been dealt.. and i also want to see a list of coaches you all think that would be better than Spoelstra, that coach that’s going to take this current roster and make them into scary winners. And the first idiot that says Ty Lue, you can turn in your heat fan card as you leave out the door.
Don't expect these to be addressed lol, but agree on everything.

Spo sucks!!!!!
Nah JK!!!
He can be frustrating at times with how slow he does rotations, but I would hate to see him on another team lol.

You guys seriously think that this board is hard on Spo now? If so, then wait till Herro gets off to a slow start

Wrong guy to defend the squad.
I read it differently. Kakich is the ass here, clearly. WTF has Brad Stevens won?
That's an actual argument unlike Fiorentino's which was basically that Spo is a hard worker. Every coach in the NBA is assumed to be a hard worker.
Yeah, that's not at all fair to Fiorentino, someone that everyone respects. In the Heat saying you are a hard worker is like saying you would crush your enemies and gnash them in your teeth. It's just dialect.

I remember 11-30 with these guys. ^

I debated on doubling down here (tripling down really if anyone’s keepin count) but you’re a OG fan and seemingly a decent dude and don’t deserve my egregious trolling. The few times I’ve posted his tweets, I’ve left some subtle indicators that I take the twitter commentary with a grain of salt. I don’t view it as real. I post Heat twitter speculation because it’s a fun pass time more than anything else used to provoke interesting forum commentary and banter. I posted his Covington tweet, if you check what I said, just to discuss the possibility of Mia acquiring him and wanted to gauge Heat fans on their thoughts on RC. It worked. The forum seems to like the idea.
If he really is your brother’s friend, that’s knee slapping funny.

Re: Official Offseason thread Vol 3: Bck2BACK
you never know with the speculations, but the get two picks back is about what I anticipated, well or at least hoped. It makes no sense to take on that contract for nothing.

I'm admittedly not a fan of Fiorentino. For years he frustrated me with his platitudes that he would pass off as insights in his tv commentary. And I just found him to be cringy at times with his "D-Wade, Baby! Number one in excitement!" lines in the context of discussing numbers and percentages.
Quite frankly, I don't know anyone who liked his commentary and found anything he said to be illuminating. Not my cup of tea.
In terms of the his twitter spat, I stand by what I said. His argument was not an argument.
