Bam Adebayo has never even made a single All-NBA team.
Very good player.
But he has to be the worst player ever who’s consistently been made untouchable by an organization.
This is so Miami Heat coded lol
They didn’t trade for him back then and now they could get him in FA
Giannis gets traded, Heat let Powell go, sign Trae Young to facilitate your offense
Trae Young plans to decline $49M player option; will enter free agency, per @MarcJSpears.
Wizards remain the frontrunner "but he still expects multiple team max interest."
@flasportsbuzz@Anthony_Chiang@EthanJSkolnick You’re right but the Heat cannot be desperate and gut the roster lol
They need to play hardball with Milwaukee and get a proper deal done
The important distinction, as @Anthony_Chiang and I, and @EthanJSkolnick have noted, is while only Bam is off limits, the Heat cannot in good conscience offer every single good young player and every single available first and every pick swap. Most, sure. But offer everything when they're potentially bidding against themselves and Giannis can simply sign into your cap space in 13 months?
Heat celebrated that MIL liked their offer at the deadline but did nothing since then to approve their assets. Norm and Wigs can’t be traded anymore. 14 dealt with injuries again. Ware got inconsistent playing time. They didn’t tank for a higher pick. Assets actually got worse
Jimmy Butler’s playoff record vs other superstars during his time in Miami:
10-7 vs Giannis Antetokounmpo
11-9 vs Jayson Tatum/Jaylen Brown
4-1 vs Jalen Brunson
3-1 vs Trae Young
2-2 vs Joel Embiid
Miami Jimmy had the Eastern Conference in his hands.
