The Truth spitting the truth
Paul Pierce on Damian Lillard potentially joining the Heat: "They won't make it out of the first round."
Me and Tracy McGrady: đź‘€

True
Paul is drunk. Acting like losing Vincent, Struss, and Lowry but adding Dame makes them a first round exit.
Is it true that Duncan didn’t play in the first few series? That doesn’t seem accurate. Herro got hurt game 1 in the first series.
But when I say it it gets downvoted
I think our big 3 are better and the rest definitely are. They have a different attitude than the Celtics.
Cinderella season
paul pierce spitting
he’s actually clutch and knows what it takes unlike choker lame time
Idc if people would think the truth may be on a high or is drunk, but he has a point. It depends if jimmy and dame will clash egos. Jimmy is the alpha right now… so it depends if dame dolla or dame diva will appear.
I think truth is just placing it in the pov of the big 3 with kg and ray: they were asked once who will shoot the winning shot, they answered anyone of them. Truth perceives that there would be something toxic when butler and dame would team up… unless the purpose of dame is to quietly ring chase (made it appear to be a major cog but in reality he is content letting butler call the shots)
At least if this was a hot take it kind of made sense haha
It’s also the case that this Miami team beat a Milwaukee team that had Giannis for maybe half of available minutes. Personally I want Dame to go to Miami so we can smack them in the playoffs with their new “superteam.”
Idk if they’d be a 1st round exit for sure but I think Paul is probably right about their depth after a hypothetical Dame trade, the Heat’s ability to squeeze the absolute most out of random UDFAs is so wildly mythologized atp. As smart as Spo is I doubt that he can instantly and perfectly replace the quality and chemistry that Strus, Vincent, Robinson, and Martin developed, and ofc Herro would 100% be gone. Maybe they’d at least get to keep Martin or Robinson, idk.
