I love the team but it makes sense to start the process to look into the next build
ROAD TO 15k subscribers.
They should have traded Jimmy in the off-season. Now he looks worse than last year.
Trade Jimmy and Rozier now while they still have trade value for young prospect/future draft picks. This team needs to start the rebuild process now before its too late.
Should have gotten KD. Should have gotten Dame. Victor never worked out. Terry was a miss.
Excellent take by Wes on the mistakes made by Heat F.O.
Paul looks like he had a few or two. But since I know Paul hates Miami to death, might be true with what’s going on behind the scenes 😂😂😂
Orlando lapped us last year 😮 and didn't look back and Paelo is out Franz and the crew still locking teams up winning and looking good we a team with good players and a injury prone star in Jimmy it is what it is
Regular fans off the street knew that running this back so many times was a big mistake. How did the front office not think the same? Complete arrogance and negligence
Yea trade him to a team that he might get a ring he deserves it taking this team twice to the finals with no help
Kuzma
Wiggins
Kuminggga
Fox
the final nail in the coffin for me was when the Heat decided to trade for Lowry. everything that happened after was the rotting from the inside. i completely disagree with Wes on his take about Lowry in that first season.
The Heat made a bad decision not starting Jaime in the beginning of the season. He has the best BB IQ
, high extended energy, unstoppable, Jimmy potential, great passing and needs to be integrated into the starting line up! Instead they wasted time with Jovic and Rozier both are on the bench now! Common sense guys😏
Brandon Ingram is who i would go for
Fans despise other franchise's fans and tend to project their hate on their players thinking that they should hate other players too. The reality is that outside the court, players tend to be friends with one another. You may hate Pierce but if he hears news about how Jimmy feels, it should be considered seriously.
The problem is not who to trade, but who you are gonna trade for? These guys don't have high trade value. Butler is old and injury prone and only getting worse. And even when he isn't, he isn't a #1. Rozier is regressing badly and didn't have much value to begin with. Bam disappears far too often and is a gamble. On the right team in the right role, he could be solid.
The heats party is over !
It's a wrap and doesn't feel this team is going anywhere! Doesn't feel like a step up at all! We just have to keep finding new talent without the overspending. There's need to be new fresh uncorrupted players that care for this game! I'd be happier having fresh college or G league players!
It’s been over. Trade everyone you can starting with Jimmy and start over with the young guys.
Bahahahaha
Damn, now I miss Kelly Olynyk 💔
Good luck building around Bam, he is the only problem the heat has right now
Everything is fixable except for Bam Mental, at least Jimmy carry the team on his shoulder to two finals, what has Bam did to get all this praise, what games are we watching?
