Where do the Heat go from here...?

[Black Adam]

Serious question with all the talk of being cap strapped, having no picks, and a little unrest in the ranks so to speak...

personally I'm not sure what moves can be made but as I said on the game thread necessary changes are coming...

So Heat fans, and others, what do you think can and WILL be done...?

 

[bksballer89]

They'll find a way to make some moves.

What moves? I don't know

But as i said earlier, the front office felt the group deserved a full year to see if the 30-11 finish to last year was a fluke or not.

They're definitely not standing pat and coming back in September with the same group of guys

 

[Mecca]

Deandre will bolt.

Doc and Baby Doc will stick for another year.

Gallo will continue his thievery.

Beverley will demand a trade.

Tobias will play his way into a trade because we won't want to max him.

The Logo will abandon ship.

Rinse, repeat...back in the lottery.

2019 can be different.

But, 2018 is a lost cause already.

144 Million in payroll and they are a playoff team that will not likely even get to the second round - YIKES. I am glad that's not the Lakers.

They are so screwed with Bosh, and they could do the waive and stretch, that would lower them closer to the cap, but Is Whiteside really worth $27 million a year. I think they might not have a choice but to wait one more year and finish off the Chris Bosh contract - then blow it up.

If I was the owner of the Heat I'd fire the HC & that greasy GM. Then I would sell the team. No top FA's will ever be attracted to Miami. It's a shithole & in a real bad neighborhood.

Beasley round 4 is only path to the promised land.

The Clips have 2 lottery picks, not?

Gallows humor... love it.

 

[Mecca]

Yep.....as long as the Detoit pick doesn't go top 3.

But....for the purposes of this thread...If Deandre bolts, I'd take Whiteside gladly.

Deandre (.580) had a better FT% this year than Lonzo (.451).



BOOOOOOOMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With that payroll situation, there's not much the Heat can do. If anything, Philly had just exposed them of the typr of irrelevant NBA franchise they've become since LeBron left.

Back to Miami to watch the proceedings on TV

 

[wildturkey]

Pick an owner with some assets they like, take him out for a night on the town, and get him so liquored up that he agrees to trade for Hassan Whiteside

Bosh's salary no longer counts against the Heat's cap.

How many titles does Indiana have again? Also, please win game 7. Thanks.

Even without that, The Heat are screwed though - unless they are going to blow it up and rebuild

Probably what's going to happen.

So now you say he sucks after years of defending his ass against @WiggyRuss ?

It amuses me you're too stupid to recognize a joke and that you're so butthurt about getting owned on a basketball message board that you desperately look for any tiny grain of a tidbit to try to get one up on someone.
