Do we currently have spacing concerns?
Dragic, Nunn, Herro, and DRob all can hit a 3, some at a highly efficient rate. There is also hope the Precious can develop a reliable touch as well, not to mention the hope is Bam will finally stretch his game out as his pre-draft workout showed he can. If anything, I says a Giannis signing is what finally forces Spos and Bams hand to take those shots with more frequency. Our floor spacing will be fine.
The lion share of our shots isn't coming from someone who can't shoot rn; If Giannis is our hail mary then those are some honest concerns that should be considered. I'm not asking what if Bam becomes a great 3pt shooter in the next season, I'm asking what if he doesn't and our big 3 can't shoot

Between Precious and Eboua we basically got two Kawhi Leonard clones.

Pat.
Where you at Pat.
Call the Rockets.
The only untouchables are Dragic, Jimmy Butler, and Bam Bam.
Everyone else can pack their bags to make the trade work.

Just sayin', three non-shooter's a hefty bet. Jimmy's not getting his youth back; this core is making an all or nothing bet with questionable fit. How do you stop a defense from walling off the paint with only two shooters on the floor?

Re: Official Miami Heat Off-Season GT - Saving you from IggieCC
I don't think none of those guys is a superlative offensive threat... in today's game you need at least one of those to score 25 points or more every game with a mixture off penetration and outside shot, somebody fast and limber... if you don't have one or two of those type of guys, you don't win a chipBishop45 wrote:If the plan is for Giannis, what follows that?

Because of this the more I think about it the more I realize that we need Harden types and Giannis will not cut it

I have a feeling that we are close to completing a trade with the Bucks to send Adebayo in exchange for Giannis.

You're raising a legitimate question Bish and I certainly don't have an answer for you rn.
I think FO and pro-2021 Giannis or bust fans mindset is that OMG we have an opportunity to sign 2-time MVP into our cap space let's get him and worry about the rest

Mia's history of acquiring a "Kawhi clone" has produced a poor shooting and perpetually injured product that the fanbase irrationally grew attached to.
Let's hope these new candidates are another kind of Kawhi clone.

Re: Official Miami Heat Off-Season GT - Saving you from IggieCC
For those that want Harden, your best hope is that Giannis signs the supermax when he comes back from Greece. Otherwise I don't see the Heat making any moves, unless Houston for some strange reason decides to sell Harden to us for cheap.

That's definitely a problem, and that's not unique to our team. That said, that wall defense only works when there is a primary ball handler who cannot shoot and tries to go to the rim all the time, aka GA@Bucks. The way we work around it is to ensure that no one stays in the same place on the floor and the ball doesn't stick. Like our offense from last season. We can always stagger them if needed, but I have 100% confidence in Spo to make it work. And while we are worrying about the issues on offense, does anyone want to dream with me about the potential on defense with that same big 3

Its Windhorst, but he's now speculating that Davis hasn't signed yet because the Lakers also want to make a run at Giannis.
