HEAT Game Thread 2021/22 Season

[Dade County]

If the HEAT front office would actually pull that trigger...

Lakers: Jimmy & Lowry
HEAT: AD, fillers/2rd picks
3rd Team: Westbrook, HEAT 1st rd pick, fillers

The writing is on the wall for AD, you can tell him and his agent are positioning themselves for an exit. But I can be wrong.

& then Miami would have to make a decision if they would still go after Beal, LaVine or Mitchell (one of these players will still have to say, I want Miami & only Miami).


Mitchell/ Vincent/ Dragic
Strus/ Vic
3&D / Martin
AD/ Tucker
Bam/ Bamba/ Omer

I gotta say you have a knack for suggesting Miami gives up the best player in a trade AND a pick on top consistently.

Last year you suggested Jimmy and a 1st for Simmons, now you do it with Davis.

Not sure why your opinions on value differ so greatly from mine.

I do have problems lmao

But what are your thoughts on this would be the very best time to trade Jimmy?

I feel that his value will never be this high from this point on, because of age & injuries. & I believe that AD is overall better then Jimmy, in his own way.

Yes, AD has missed a lot of games this past 2 seasons. But I believe he will come out of this healthy and ready to roll.

@Beasted86
How did you feel about the trade package the Nets got for Simmons?

[Dade County]

How do you guys feel about TJ Warren?

Bamba & Warren would be a big help defensively. Especially if we do trade some of our on court assets.

Pat NEEDS to get his hands on a top scorer.

I don't think there's any world Davis is better than Jimmy this past season even if 100% healthy. Not now, likely not next year either. But your opinion clearly differs.

I would agree this might be the best time to trade him, but surely not for Davis nor Simmons (even before he sat out). It has to be for a guy in the top 15 who's either better already (Leonard, Durant, etc.) or has untapped potential (Mitchell, Trae, etc.). Not trading for head cases or injury prone guys. Doesn't make sense to destroy chemistry in a trade for the sake of trading.

I also wouldn't entertain trading him if he didn't ask for one behind closed doors. But all indicators show he wants to be here.

Bamba would be a really good get for the MLE or some sort of S&T. But he's restricted.

[Dade County]

If the Irving reports are true....
I expect KD to ask out shortly after.

Teams I think that these star players (KD super star) would want to be traded too...

Kyrie: HEAT(jimmy butler connection...google sound bites)

KD: Sun(KD really likes Booker), HEAT(trusted organization, loved Spo pitch when he was a free agent before selecting GS), Portland(Dame Time), Bulls(Market)

[Dade County]

If Beal wants out, I believe Miami will get their hands on him & we keep Hero. Wiz wont be in any position to play hard ball.

[All-In]

Bamba would be a really good get for the MLE or some sort of S&T. But he's restricted.

Yeah, Bamba was someone I was hoping to get for our MLE, if the Magic draft Jabari Smith then they might not want to bring back Bamba, so it could depend on how the rest of the market values Bamba on whether we get him or not

[All-In]

With PJ Tucker opting out it's going to be interesting to see what happens with our 4-man spot, that's been our unsung hero spot the last two playoff runs (Crowder, Tucker) so making sure we maintain a good 4 is key

There were Jerami Grant rumors but not sure what that'll take

Seems like they drafted Nikola Jovic to be Kelly Olynyk 2.0.....probably won't ever be a great 1-on-1 defender but has decent movement skills for his size and can be a great team defender, on offense he looks like a good ball handler, can generate shots for himself, with shooting upside and nice fit next to Bam

Idk if he's our starting 4-man of the future but does already have a defined role in our system and at worst projects to be our backup 4-man who can slide to starting role when need be

This is assuming if we don't trade him lol

Give his body 2-3yrs of maturing and he will be good to go.
