Giannis Antetokounmpo Miami Heat Trade STILL POSSIBLE? HUGE Miami Heat Rumors
Welcome into the heat report by chat sports. I am your host Nick Rolloff. Hopefully everyone had a good weekend and Miami might have gotten some good news on a Monday morning. Is a Giannis Anton Koopmpo trade still on the table and possible for Miami? This was one of the main talking points earlier this off season. could Giannis ask out of the organization? But after moves made where they acquired Miles Turner, they waved Damen Lillard and made some other signings, people are like, “All right, is this meaning he’s staying? This mean he’s leaving? He hasn’t requested a trade to this point.” But maybe he still could because Sham Shirana was on Get Up this morning with ESPN and had a very interesting oneliner around Antin Kmpo. He said that sources tell him there is nothing set in stone about whether Giannis Antidmpa will stay in Milwaukee or whether he will be leaving. There’s some good conversations over the last week or so. The constant question that Giannis has thought, can I win a championship with this roster? Is this roster going to be one for this upcoming year and the following? He’s asking that question over and over. And if you’ve watched our content this off seasonason, we made probably about two or three videos on Giannis earlier in the off seasonason before the KD stuff got underway. And I consistently said in those videos that I don’t know why Giannis would want to stay in Milwaukee if he was serious about winning a title over the next two or three years. Now, this was before the Miles Turner signing trade and the waving of Damen Lillard. that roster around him just was not good and Dame was going to be out for this entire year. Now, they did obviously move on from Dame and they brought in Miles Turner, but are we really going to sit here and believe that a Kyle Kosma Miles Turner duo behind Giannis can actually help them win a title? I know the East is pretty weak right now because of the injuries to Indiana and Boston, but I don’t know if Ant Kmpo’s greatness will be able to overcome the holes on this roster outside of him. So, I’m not sure sure that if he asks them that question, he might not answer. I can’t and request a trade. More coming here on Giannis, but help spread the word here of the Heat Report. It’s a little bit of a slow time in the off season. So, we want to try to reach new audiences. And then the best way to help us out is by sharing today’s video. Could send it to a friend, family member, co-orker, or just put it on social media. You know what? If you tag me on Twitter, Nick_Rolof, I’ll give you a shout out on a future show. Now, briefly, when we think about Miami potentially going after Giannis, I said this earlier in the off season. I think Miami could create a real compelling offer for Giannis to pry him away from Milwaukee if he did request a trade. Now, the Heat’s offer would not come with a boatload of draft capital, which who knows if that is something Milwaukee would want. Probably considering they don’t have a lot of their own draft capital, but Miami has really good contracts and a lot of good young players. And they should absolutely be on the table for a player of Antony Kmpo’s caliber. We’re talking about a top three player in the National Basketball Association. You can make the argument whether he’s number two or number three, but he is inside that top three without a question of hesitation. If I’m going to rank my top three players in the NBA, it is without a doubt going to be Nicoola Jokic one. It’s going to be Shay Gil’s Alexander 2. And I’m going to put Giannis number three. That’s how I view it. But Giannis is still 29 years of age. He still has a lot of good years left. And I know there’s some questions on if he would be able to be effective late into his career since he doesn’t really have a three-point shot. I still think he is going to be a top five, top 10 player in the league without question over the next five to six seasons. He’s still got some good time left in him. So yeah, everything would be on the table with a Giannis trade. So pin comment on today’s show. So if you hate with YouTube ads, scroll down, let it play, and answer the question. Should Miami go out and try to acquire Yianus if he requests a trade? Type Y for yes or type N for no? I clearly want yes. But here are some potential destinations. Me and Jeffrey Cooperstein were thinking about the top five potential landing spots if a trade request happened. These are my five that we came up with. I think the Nixon Heat are the top two teams in the Eastern Conference. I think Brooklyn is there potentially. We’ve heard rumblings that Giannis would be interested by to go there, but I’m not so sure if that is serious or not. They do have a lot of draft capital, so they can offer a pretty solid trade. Dallas and San Antonio are the two teams in the West that I think would be very intriguing. The Spurs can offer a lot. Pair him up with Wem would be scary. Dallas has a good offer as well. They can just try to swap Anthony Davis for um Giannis. maybe some draft capital added alongside AD or they could make a offer where it’s Cooper flag and salary and I think Milwaukee would have to seriously contemplate that as well and I would probably prefer that package over Anthony Davis and draft picks if I were the Milwaukee Bucks but I think these five teams make a lot of sense and I briefly mentioned this a second ago and I’ll reit this point if Giannis requests a trade from the Bucks and is actually available on the trade market you do everything in your power to acquire him. You just don’t see players of this caliber be on the move often if if we’re going to be honest ever. And since Luca Donuch extended with the Los Angeles Lakers and the pipe dream of signing him in free agency next year is gone, the best option you have of acquiring a 1A caliber player that can lead you to a title is via trade. And I don’t really think this is that likely, but there’s a chance Anthony Edwards will be a player people point to. I don’t really think there’s that high of a chance with that one either. So, I just don’t really know what Miami would do. But, we know there has always been interest with Giannis and Miami from the Heat side of things as well as from Antakmpo. There are a couple players around the league that I think Miami would be their first choice to join that organization if they actually were to request a trade. I think Luca was one of them. I do think Anthony Edwards is one of them and I think Giannis is one of them. Now, they actually have to request a trade from where they currently are. And I don’t really know if that’s really likely, but there is always going to be interest from both parties. And Miami, as I mentioned, has a lot that they can offer. They have multiple draft picks and a ton of draft swaps that they can send. They have expiring salary with Terry Rosier if they needed to. They have an interesting player in Andrew Wiggins. They have two cornerstone guys in Hero and Bam. And they have young players in Nicole Yovic, Casper Jonas and KL Wear. Like I am sorry I am not going to let national pundits potentially say Miami wouldn’t be able to get in the stratosphere with an Anton Koopo trade. Do we have five or six first round picks we can offer like some teams out there? No, we do not. But with the moderate draft capital you have, you could pair that up with different veteran contracts that are valuable and young players and it could really make sense for the Bucks to potentially go with an offer that Miami has. That is why I truly do believe if Giannis requested a trade, Miami would absolutely be interested. And I think Giannis would be interested in Miami. And the Heat would have an offer that could get them in the ballpark of potentially getting a deal done. And just coming up in a second, we are going to take a look at a couple potential Giannis trade ideas and then give you my thoughts on each one. But take advantage of this Heat Culture hoodie sale.

Grab yours right now. And speaking of right now, what would a Giannis trade look like? We did a video, like I mentioned about two, three months ago about different Giannis Antin Koopo trade ideas. I think I’ve dwindled it down to two. We did three earlier where it was Hero trade package, a BAM trade package, and then a trade offer where you try to keep both Bam and Hero. I’m going to leave Bam out of it because I do not think Miami would trade Bam for Giannis. He is their guy, and it would be trying to pair Giannis and Bam together as a front court duo, which by the way, I think would be the best defensive duo in the front court in NBA history. So, it would be fun to see that come to play just in its own right. But let’s take a look at Giannis trade idea number one. And this is where you put Tyler Hero in the package. It would be Hero Wiggins and then your first round pick from this year, Casperis Yakonis, plus two unprotected first round picks in 2030 and 2032, plus a first round pick swap in 26, 28, 29, and 31. So, you’re giving up your rights to every pick you own currently from now until 2032. I know it’s a lot, but like I mentioned, we’re talking about Giannis. And some people might say it’s too much. Well, I’m sorry if you are in the mindset of acquiring Anthony Koopmpo. you’re going to have to offer everything that you have, especially if you are not sending out a bio just to be able to compete with packages from the Knicks, from the Mavericks, from the Nets. So, like, you’re going to have to do this. And this would be a trade I would be fine making because you would be able to have a starting lineup that I think is the number one starting lineup in the Eastern Conference. You would still have DaVon Mitchell. you would be able to still keep Norman Powell in this trade and he becomes your starting two guard. I would probably start Nicoolola Yoic to have another playmaker, ball handler and shooter in this starting lineup and then start Giannis and Bam as your four five. But as you know we did not put KL Wear in this tradeoffer at least the first one. So he would be able to be your backup center and play alongside Giannis, play alongside Bam. Still it gives you a lot of versatility. You used to have Larson, Highmith, Hakez, Fonteo off the bench. It would be a very deep team still even if you made that massive trade. So, I would be willing to include Tyler Hero in that potential deal. But here is the trade package number two where you try to keep Tyler Hero. Instead of Hero, you still have Wiggins and Yakonis, but you include Norman Powell and KL Wear. And I actually think that is very fair. If you were to think of Tyler Herro’s trade value, I think a young player like KL Wear and a veteran scoring guard like Norman Powell would make sense in terms of value. So I would still include the two first round picks and four pick swaps because I think Powell and Wear are similar value. The Bucks in this case would get two young players in Yakonis and Wear. all of the draft capital, two veterans to keep them relatively competitive to have a lineup would be Powell, Wiggins, Koozma, Miles Turner, and then you have the young guard as well. And then your starting lineup in this hypothetical would obviously nowhere and no Norman Powell, you’re probably starting Hero and DaVon Mitchell in the back court together. And instead of going with a Yovic or Hakez, I would actually like to start Haywood Highmith with this group for more defensive purposes because that would be the best defensive front court in the NBA. Three through five. It would help mask Tyler Herro’s defensive liabilities, especially with DaVon Mitchell in the back court and then you could have Yic coming off the bench with Larson with Hawz still. So that is another way where it makes me very intrigued by that potential package. And the final thing I’ll say on a potential Giannis trade. Obviously I would want to keep hero if I could because a hero and Giannis pick and roll and combo offensively would be just so damn fun and would keep Bam as that like third option offensively which is probably where he thrives. Second best player but third option on the offensive end. But I would be fine trading Hero assuming you are keeping Norman Powell. Hero is contract eligible soon. I am not going to pay him the max 50 mil per season. So, if I can move off of him and trade him at his highest value right now and get a Giannis in return, who is very much worth 5560 million per season, I would be fine doing that because I also have Norman Powell who can just fill that two guard scoring backcourt role that Tyler Herro currently has. And then you would just start DaVon Mitchell at the one. I would be very fine with that.

there's hope. maybe riley isn't so crazy afterall
just more pipe dreams. Riley is doing nothing he's old and senile. When are you going to realize that Rollie?
Trade herro
They won't have enough to trade. This is beyond a pipe dream😅
Y of course
Y
With the development of Ware and the addition of NP, we one of the scariest teams in the East.
For Bam this is Great
He will go to Portland
I'd do that lst trade for Giannis in my sleep
Giannis is 30.
If Bucks insist on Bam, trafe Bam and 2 #1 pics plus Jaime for Giannis.
Herro, Powell, Jovic, Giannis, Ware starting 5.
Sigh….
Thought for sure you were gonna say Ant #2. SGA ain’t top 3 lol
The Bucks aren’t going to go for anything we have to offer. They will want a young centerpiece, which we haven’t developed any yet, or a mountain of picks which we don’t have.
They aren’t trading Giannis for our mishmosh of players.
If they trade Giannis, the smart thing to do would be to pick the bones and trade for Turner.
Bro stop with ya bullshit
Y….
We go from Luka wishing to giannis wishing in less then 24 hours😂 heat fans never get enough😂
It's not going to happen, but we can dream.
Im wonder how is next ? Antony Edward , AD , Shai . 😂😂 brother they are laughing they ass on us . Patt its not doing shit . Frist Luka then Fox them both resign and now Giannis 😂😂
