    Spo been handed a championship roster by Pat he jus got to coach it and make some tough decisions: PG-Jovic(goal-NBA assist leader) SG-Powell SF-Wiggins, PF-Bam(no more than 8 shots a game and do the Bam stuff) C-Ware 6th Man-Tyler(many shots as you want and guard the worst guard on every 2nd unit, you'll still get paid) 2ndPG- Ghost(you do everything Jovic do) G-Mitchell (keep being you)SF-JJJ-(No designed plays for you but play like your hair on 🔥 dive for loose balls, use your athleticism, become the embodiment of Heat Culture and you can get your jersey retired, that's the blueprint Spo lol, let's win the championship!! And ima win mines on 2k!!

    Not a fan of Spo coaching Team USA he has a hard enough time coaching this team WTH was he thinking Kerr was no fool.

  7. @kevontre3077

    I love the idea of herro on the team USA roster for 2028 but when you got Haliburton, Cunningham, Brunson, Mitchell, booker, jaylen brown, Ant, Ja, Trae, Maxey it's gone be tough I feel for him. Bam is a lock for sure

  10. @jowallprieto7727

    The conversation nobody wants to hear, is a trade with Lauri Markkanen is best done using Bam, youre going to get picks back from Utah. & Lauri actually fits on the team with the rest of the roster, you can Start Ware now without issues due to Lauri's shooting. You can also have a frontcourt of Jovic, Lauri, Ware then with the picks you get you now also have the stash to then turnaround and trade Herro + Picks to get that superstar Guard to finish the build.

    Trade Bam and Jaime for Giannis..he's overpaid, under performer season after season. He's shown he's not the scorer we need, I'd prefer PJ Washington and Gafford who are both cheaper and gives us more…we need Pat to retire and bring someone from the outside with a different mindset

  15. @2kballinHard

    Lol Spo being the head coach of Team USA is could be all part of a master plan I don’t want to put in the ethos 🔮✨

  18. @MrGrownman455

    If you have Giannis then you dont need Bam. YOU KEEP WARE!! Ware is a legit future star and I know you guys cant see it but SPO sees it which is why he keeps calling Ware out. Even Jeff Teague and his podcast was calling WARE Miami"s Wemby There may one day be a Heat Roster built around Ware.

  20. @barrone71

    Wait till Spo has his first team meeting and asks the Olympians…… “Which of you will be the next Udonis Haslem” and “lets practice taking charges” lol.

  21. @MrFranchize99

    Can we see bam and kas get some reps? Wish herro was available so he could get reps with him too. He can make it way easier on them

  23. @joeshmow9097

    I saw Dallas playing with a Lively, AD, and Flagg lineup… hope Spo has a look at Ware, Bam, and Jovic lineup
