At his age is he even going to be in the league next year and the year after? Even in his OKC prime the third option behind Russell Westbrook and James Harden.
After trading Rozier and Wiggins for Lavine starting 5: Mitchell, Herro, Lavine, Ware and Bam. Just a thought.
DO NOT TRADE WARE FOR 36 Year old DURANT
We don’t have the team to beat okc
That would be sooooooo dumb
No way.😂 Not Ware. Jovic and Jaquez Yes
Trade all your young players for a old 37 year old!!! Good luck!!!
Let's go Miami
Trade Jaquez, Jovic, Robinson, Terry, and picks. Keep Ware.
KD is a washed up former superstar that can't lead a team… I guess yall haven't paid attention to the Suns the last couple seasons… His name outweighs his talent, every player not capable to play as long as LeBron, y'all are a bunch of delusional Heat fans if u truly think KD makes the Heat a contender… Same thing Suns and Nets fans thought but wit a younger KD
No on KD…. Unless the Heat want to miss the play-in entirely next year. Cause that’s what that guy does. He makes teams worse every year he’s on them👍
The ONLY reason the Heat would trade Ware is if something behind the scenes is undermining their belief in his long-term potential. It just doesn't make sense to do the deal any other reason, unless they somehow have a plan in place to immediately put a championship roster around Herro/Bam/KD.
It's crazy how many people think we can get something for a basket of nothing! All these mock trades of Rozier, Wiggins, and Duncan for superstar players make no sense. We don't want them, and neither does anybody else. You either have to give up something the other team wants, or swap bad contracts for other teams' bad contracts. Those are the options!
Give Tyler that 50 mil extension this franchise is going nowhere for the next 5-7 years. That’s going to be a franchise killer. Where TF are Bam and Tyler taking this team as the 1 and 2?!!
Multi team trade
Tyler ISN'T A TOP 25 PLAYER😂😂😂😂 C'MON DUDE… They would be INSANE TO PAY HIM THAT…. EXPOSED YEARLY IN THE PLAYOFFS 👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾
heat fans will cry either way
For anyone who's interested in KD potentially coming to Miami, whether you're for or against it. This is a must-read:
Reports are circulating that the Suns have been calling Houston to try to trade KD to them because they're interested in getting their draft picks back from Houston. Including the #10 pick in this upcoming draft
Reportedly, the Suns asking price from Houston has continued to go down each call. They really, really, really, just mainly want their draft picks back.
"If KD and Houston have mutual interest," then most likely KD will be traded to Houston.
I've said all along KD only comes to Miami IF he decides Miami is the ONLY team he wants to play for and tells other teams that he won't sign an extension with them
Personally, I want KD on Miami, but think the Heat shouldn't trade Ware in a trade for him. Because not only would you be losing Ware and what he can do/become, you'd also putting more taxing assignments back on Bam
Bobby Marks is an Ex GM for this Reason ‼️ IT'S ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ALL NBA ABOUT Tyler 😂
Fans and media's opinions on players's salaries are completely worthless. They carry absolutely no weight whatsoever because we don't have any control or influence over how much they're getting paid.
Our opinions on how much Herro is getting paid and what he's worth or not mean just as much as Herro's opinion would be on how much we get paid on our jobs which is…..NOTHING because we don't employ one another
