@ToreyJonesYT @KareemRon33 Few teams are better at finding and developing players than Miami.

If they acquire Giannis, Heat can resign Wiggins/Norm and still have access to the full MLE, BAE and a $18m TPE.

Not saying they’ll be the #1 seed but they have several ways to build the team around Giannis.

[Dgon @d__gon]

@ToreyJonesYT A bit of revisionist history. Nobody thought that was a well built team.

Other than Dragic, the Jimmy-era team was mostly filled with UDFA Strus, Caled, Gabe, Duncan.

Premature to evaluate when no one knows who’d they fill out the roster with.

[Dgon @d__gon]

@ToreyJonesYT They said the same thing when Heat acquired Jimmy. They fell short of a title, but 2 Finals and 3 ECFs is not nothing.

Giannis is better than Jimmy was and Bam is better today than he was back then. I trust the Heat to fill out the roster with contributors.

@SamQuinnCBS Assuming Heat whiff on Giannis, do you think pivoting to Kawhi + Ja is viable?

Heat may be able to get both at a lower cost than just Giannis.

[Dgon @d__gon]

@SamQuinnCBS Think a JDub for Bam swap would be even better. Thunder’s paint and perimeter defense would be unfair.

Not that the Heat would ever do it.

@mph_824_ Watching that epic Thunder/Spurs game 1 made it painfully obvious how far from real contention the Heat are.

They were playing a comply different sport!

[Dgon @d__gon]

@EternalBast @Alf954 One tiny problem… Heat need Wiggins to do them a favor and pickup his player option (June 29). Unsure why he’d do that. Wiggins likely can get more than $30m on a multi-year deal elsewhere.

@SamQuinnCBS @SamQuinnCBS Heat fan here: what do you see as a realistic trade package that lands KD in Miami to play alongside Bam?

@GregSylvander It’s the year 2036. Heat unveil a bronze statue of Herro during his Heat retirement ceremony….

[Dgon @d__gon]

@WadexFlash Wiggins cannot be protected since he’ll be an expiring contract.

(assuming he opts into his player option)

@5ReasonsSports Strus is a $16m expiring contract next season. Can’t see CLE trading a 1st to dump such little money.

[Dgon @d__gon]

@SamQuinnCBS That DPOY belonged to Bam Adebayo. Someone who could legitimately guard 1-5.

Absolutely absurd that it went to Marcus Smart.

@mph_824_ If Heat prefer to be stubborn instead of evolving then our only hope is…

🙏 pray they’re eliminated from play-in
🙏 pray to the lotto gods Heat jump into top-4
🙏 pray they draft a stud
🙏 pray they make the ‘27 playoffs so pick conveys to CHA (no more future picks owed)

@flasportsbuzz Why should fans have any confidence in Spo and the front offices adapting their philosophy when all the evidence we have suggests they will keep the status quo?

If it’s about “winning the next game” we should all be prepared for 60+ combined minutes of Simone/Dru moving forward
