What would this combination do for the Heat next season?



Butler 2023-24: 20.8 ppg, 5.3 rpg, 5 asts (4X All-Star, 2023 All NBA Second Team, 4X All NBA Third Team)

DeRozan 2023-24: 24 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 5.3 asts (6X All-Star, 2X All NBA Second Team, 2017 All NBA Third Team)

    Probably win a couple more games only because demar actually plays a ton. Probably does nothing come playoff time

  2. OblivionNA

    The spacing will be horrible but I mean he does put the ball in the basket and that’s something the team struggles with.

  3. Soxalam2

    Allow us to still win games when Jimmy gets injured and misses games

  4. gwumpus-lumpus

    Be higher than 28th in 4th qtr scoring

  5. finessefuego

    i hope this demar situation gets done sooner rather than later

  6. SaintSavage1

    They would avoid play in and Celtics and Knicks

  7. MusterBait

    We will see what its like when 5 opposing players just straight up blocked the painted area

  8. Ethangains07

    Maybe make the playoffs. We’d be a bad regular season team. If we get in and Jimmy can still go MJ mode, we can beat anyone except the Celtics and Nuggets.

  9. Send Duncan and Orlando to the Pistons for Ivey and second rounders. I believe that opens up money for DeRozan to sign. Leave a roster spot open.

    get shut down inside cause these two + bam would clog up the paint. Expect a Westbrook Lakers style disaster

  11. Western-Carpet266

    It would definitely help our regular season, not so sure come playoff time

  12. BiGgmoney91

    Improve our offense by adding a way more efficient scorer than Herro

  13. Logical-Rest-7668

    It depends on who else stays in Miami. My primary guess would be DeRozan would take on a similar role that Caleb had as a starter, playing the PF and then moving to the SG or SF position during 2nd unit rotations.
    If Miami can retain Herro, Rozier, Duncan, Bam, Jimmy.
    Starting lineup would probably be matchup dependent: Bam, DeRozan or Jovic, Butler, Duncan or DeRozan, Rozier. 6th man off the bench Herro.
    Personally, I believe with health this team can take down the Celtics.

    The king of the playin game for the perennial play in team let’s get it

  15. msizzle344

    How many teams play 3 players who don’t shoot a ton of 3s and run 3 negative defenders on the court at the same time? In 2010 this would be amazing, less so now

  16. Give them a trip to Cancun to watch the playoffs

  17. wolfjeter

    Score. Spacing won’t be that bad. They both shown that they can hit threes and Jovic/Ware/Bam shoot it as well.

  18. Prudent_Move_3420

    A lot of people seem to oversee that Jimmy was shooting 41.4% from 3 last season. At a higher volume than usually too

  19. Nice_Ass_Lawn

    Demar and Jimmy in clutch time (regular season) would be sick ngl

  20. Melyheadzbeatz

    I seen Jimmy and Wade and fucking rondo play together it won’t be that bad

  21. Candid_Sand_398

    I like how he scores. If anyone can figure it out, it’s Spo. But Bam and Jimmy gonna have to take more 3’s. Both capable.

  22. JZ_the_ICON

    I don’t hate it. You can’t hate on a team for trying to make the team better. Idk how we can afford him unless he’s taking a huge pay cut.

  23. Disc-Golf-Kid

    Call me crazy but I think it’d make us contenders

  24. iamaweirdguy

    I think this move could make us a 2-4 seed but Boston is still going to be difficult.

  25. Low-Presentation-437

    At this point I would welcome it just so we can have a new face and make the season intriguing
