Oh so this is like legit legit, not Derozan would love to play in Miami but Miami doesn’t care type of thing.


Man, I hope not. He's not a solution in Chicago. Why would he be a solution here?

That is desperation.

Haywood Highsmith is a Heat twittter false prophet. Extremely over hyped one trick pony undersized defensive jag. Sucks at offense, no rebounding, no interior defense, awful IQ on off ball movement, has no feel in the screen game, has to be in the utmost perfect standstill spot to get his shot off, and zero dribble drive to his game. He’s Rodney McGruder all over again.

We have nothing to offer Dallas. Which is how trades work. Usually both teams want something in return. Why would Dallas give us Kyrie for Herro? Come on guys. Put a lil effort. They have Luka and are trying to get better here not worse. Besides we already traded for undersized PG in Scary. We already made our move, that was it unfortunately. A move so uninspired that espn didn’t bother to mention it. Micky already made his tax saving move, he might have another salary slasher of a trade lined up but that’s about it

Highsmith is a false prophet.

Micky is the one true profit.

I like most of our talent, but really seems like alot of it is being misused :

1) Highsmith is a very good defender, espically against wing and guards. Not really against bigs. Makes sense since he's like 6'6 tops. He can be a good backup wing, defensive 2/3 off he bench. HE'S BY NO MEANS A STARTING PF.

2) Herro has some offensive flare, he's not efficenct but can score in bunches. He can be a good 6th man, HE'S NOT A FIRST OR SECOND OPTION ON ANY SANE TEAM.

3) Martin can be a nice energy SG off the bench, HE'S NOT A PF EVER AND NOT A STARTER LEVEL PLAYER AT ANY POSITION.

4) Bam is great and doing his best. He's also way undersized at C, and therefor should play next to a supersized PF, someone at least his size if not bigger. HE SHOULD NEVER PLAY NEXT TO 6'6 210 PFs.

I can go on, but basically this roster is really wack, we need to balance it, add talent, and start geeting our guys in their proper roles.

This our build for now folks until the end of this season, where we may or may not go out and make a serious change.

Looking at this report and you would think the Heat are trying everything damn possible to get our from under either Herro or Duncan's salary by the deadline. I'm glad you posted this because I feel like there are some who have no idea or care to look into the ramifications of our salary cap situation. It's important to educate


This summer is when they would make that move. The 2nd apron is what they are trying to avoid now.

They can dump Bryant and Smith and get out of it and have enough to sign a couple of 2 ways at prorated deals and not go over. Next year they are dancing in the second apron again.

You hate him because Spo has him playing in the wrong role but he’s an elite, yes ELITE, defender and can be a good rotation player.

If we’re being honest everyone on this team outside of Jimmy and Bam can be considered as “jag” I can go to every team and pick out a Herro, Caleb, Duncan, etc. They may not be as good or they may be better but they’re similar in play style and what they do

He’s a one trick pony situational defender who should be a 3rd stringer on most teams. I remember when Cheftrille used to clown him watching him during open runs until they became friends.
