They can use a center that can get us rebounds!
Honestly just keep this team wtf we playing great, let the young guys work
I'd definitely target PJ Washington. He fits what we doing. AD is an amazing player and alongside Bam is scary but idk if it makes sense. We are one trade away from being real contenders. We are not beating the West with this team but we can reach the finals. My dream is Ant becoming available. He's an Heat guy. Imagine him alongside Herro, Bam, Powell, etc.
AD makes no sense. He’s always injured and he’s slow af compared to the heats high speed offense
The Bam slurping with these 2 is out of control. Bam is not worth 60 mil a year. Not 1 other team in the nba would pay Bam 60 mil. Mitchell does the little things for 12 mil a year.
Bam makes 55 mil a year. Ill gladly pay just 5 mil a year more for SGA, Giannis or anyone else making 60 mil
You have concerns that herro who fits perfectly with the pace this team plays and would be ideal next to Powell? Gtf out. You guys have no credibility. Wes literally 2 pods ago you BOTH said herro fits perfectly. Unsubscibe to this bullshit podcast.
How have you watched Herro at these games and think he hasn't already bought in? You literally see him helping Jaquez on the bench. He and Powell sit together on the bench when Powell is of the court. Only miami can say we don't want a 25 year old 24 point a game scorer who is a top 10 3pt shooter in the nba.
It's not Tyler, it's his DEFENSE. He's getting targeted.
PJ Washington, Daniel Gafford, or Dereck Lively would be the Mavs players I would look at
AD would cost too much
Bring in one of their other bigs like Gafford or Lively and I think that would help so much overall
Yeah, about that. If there's one franchise who despise the Heat, it's the Mavs and there are still holdovers there from the Dirk era who dont want to trade with us. However, if they were dumb enough to hire Nico Harrison, there could be a slight chance. And why would I feel sorry for them when the draft was rigged for them (1.87 % chance!) to get Cooper Flagg? F em. AD is the taller version of Kawhi and the shorter version of Embiid: always injured aka useless. Hard pass just like Ja.
Morsnt, .Anthony Davis , you guys will talk about anyone for clicks
Anthony Davis literally can’t play at this pace lmao
Keep Anthony Davis away please
simple answer; eww
Trade hero for Anthony Davis for cap money Terry rozier true . Clay is a good pick up off the bench Terry rozier true trade for clay for cap 💴
Shut up Wes. Team is playing great. Why would we need AD who barely plays? This season, Simone > Klay by the way.
Can yall stop with this AD stuff. Unless it’s a vet minimum on a buyout I don’t wanna hear it
Miami needs help on rebounds yes trade Terry or Tyler for Anthony Davis😂😂😂
Listen Kel and bam is a ten time better Duo Davis old he’s injured prone definitely not ever trading Ware
Bam is the Miami heat and will always be the Miami heat and a Miami heat he teaches the young
The heat have shown time and time again that they are better without Tyler. That being said, that was with Jimmy on the squad so this imo is the last chance he has to prove he makes this team better
Has Wes seen klay numbers???? Dude smh
If Miami is smart, they would stay away from Anthony Davis. He’s injured prone just like Tyler Herro stay away from it. No good can come from it.
Hell, no Klay Thompson no no stay away from him too
Why would the Mavericks wanna take on Terry Rozier to give clay up that doesn’t make sense Wes
This isn't even worth listening to, AD is old, expensive, injured, and would slow us down on the court and in free agency for years to come. Stop this nba2k horseshit.
Well, you got Tyler heroes contract coming up and you got Norman Powell contract coming up who do you choose me personally I take Norman Powell. I think he could do a lot more than Tyler hero Tyler heroes is not even a sufficient shooter and Tyler Herro doesn’t have defense.
Washington as PF for the Heat is perfect fit
