Wes needs to Man Up! Pats runs the Miami Heat and everyone knows that. Jimmy can want out all he wants, but isn't going anywhere unless Pat says year.
People' will always talk its a tale as old as humanity
Bam and Spo, apologies show😂😂😂
Wes forgets not everyone lives in the digital age. All this smoke is just that.
Jimmy got to play and stop talking. dude do more complaining than playing
As media members, whenever you’re more concerned with getting cozy with the front office than actually reporting the facts and speaking the truth to your audience, people view you as not credible…..
Its also hard scorong more if your consistently getting double and triple teamed
Man, Wes, you are making this SO much more than what it is.
Typical Miami Heat fans, annoyed with Wes, because he’s the one that is speaking the truth about the organization…
I don't agree with you guys. True or not, it is a rumor. We'll see what happens.
David would never give Tyler most of the credit cookie because he doesn’t like him. Remember, it’s not how you start but how you finish, and Herro did made the most important shot of the game….

So, no mention about our max role player Bam. SMH, if Tyler played like this you guys would be killing him and please stop with all these Bam excuses.
Bam plays like he smoking weed half the time
Had Pat run this by his media liason no way he put a stupid statement like this out. You mean to tell me if the Suns call Par and say we give you Durant for Jimmy he is not trading jimmy? If the Warriors call and say we are giving you Curry for Jimmy you are not trading. The media here is so juvenile that is why they are not challenging Riley. This is the arrogance of a GM with job security. If Mikey pick up the phone and say I’m tired of this mess trade Jimmy can you tell Mikey no? At least you guys understand the statement is stupid.
Just have two points. This is tyler hero's team, in my opinion and second it is so obvious.This summer took a loud out of Bam
I miss the time when journalism meant facts being presented as a result of research and analysis. Elite photography and speaking ability. Now it’s just two idiots in their spare bedrooms speculating and throwing rumors back and forth. This shit sucks.
I have to agree with Wes. What is the point of releasing that message? Why not just say, something like "don't believe the major media"… that way you kill the rumors, while still allowing yourself to handle your business internally. Now, you pigeon-holed yourself into making it seem like you won't trade Jimmy under any circumstances, which should not be the case!!! If a great deal is put on the table, you trade Jimmy. Why? Because you cannot pay a 35, 36, 37 year old 50+ million dollars a year. That would be a huge mistake for this front office. Like Dave and Wes say, if that deal presents itself, and Butler ends up traded, then Pat and everyone in the front office ends up looking shady. I don't think this was handled the way it should have. This team is clearly ready to pivot to their next generation of players, and unfortunately those timelines do not align with Jimmy's…
If Tyler is trying to play like Steph then you ideally want someone like klay. Someone who can make up for his defensive limitations and also space the floor
Let old man Riles cook
I’m glad Pat made a statement. I disagree with Wes big time
This whole story was made up, parsing words from unnamed sources. You guys just want to keep the narrative going. There are no teams trading 50 million dollar players under the new rules. This is clownish
This is all business nothing personal Jimmy's got to get out of his feelings and understand Pat is doing straight business That's all this is about if he has any other issues that's on him because at the end of the day he him and Bernie lee are doing business so why can't Pat and spo and the Mickey Arisen
You guys are idiots..without Riley ain’t no rings no matter what..real day one Heat fans know that..Jimmy was robbing any way..he don’t play reg season..he can kick rocks and he will cause this relationship can’t be mended.
This is where I question our coach decisions you have element to play with all those young blood use them give them a chance 😅😊
This kid Wes been trippin lately
Wes sounds like an idiot.
