Waving the white flag on the Heat season

Because these fucking Pacers suck and now have the Heat thinking they have life, it is now very possible that we miss the playoffs and don't get our pick

just out of curiosity- why did Miami give up the pick in the first place?- what were the terms of the deal?

We better be in full blown tank mode tomorrow.

 

[bksballer89]

I believe if the Pacers lose today, we would either have to finish 8 or 10

Pacers are back in control thankfully. About to go up 2 or 3 after trailing by 8 a few minutes ago

Ethan just told me that if Miami and Indy finish with the same record while both missed the playoffs, the pick will be decided by a coin flip

Don't recall

just looked it up

ironically enough- its one of the picks that was given to the Cavs in the LeBron James "trade"

-if it does not convey this year- it is top 10 protected next year- and the year after that it is totally unprotected

-its crazy they still owe on that deal and LeBron is not even there anymore- it is even further more ironic that it was a pick traded to Cleveland- and Cleveland has LeBron back--- though they did give up the pick in the Kevin Love deal.- and then the Twolves inexplicably and stupidly traded it to the 76'ers for Thad Young.

We had to give the Cavs picks when the James signing became a sign and trade.

The league needs to look into changing that.

I think the picks shouldn't have to be given up if the player that is traded goes back to that same team.

This will never happen. We both know it.

If Indy loses this one, Miami would look it as only needing a Brooklyn L to make the playoffs.

We need to get eliminated tonight

Now I remember reading that.
Let's just hope the Wizards pull their starters now and Pacers win.

I honestly believe that we can lose tomorrow even if we are trying.

League should just step in and make Ok. City the 8 seed in the East

Philly will be in full tank mode also. They want our top 10 pick. They will do everything in their power to give us the game tomorrow

Talk about a change of pace from the last few seasons...

Heat fans wanting their team to LOSE....???

I've always been a realist.

Good point.
Thing is, players on the court will try.
We just can't put our best players on the court.

 

[bksballer89]

Hibbert is so fucking trash.

No question in my mind that Whiteside is clearly better than this dude

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Haha, true dat...

How the mighty have fallen.
5 years ago Heat/Laker fans were smack talking Finals.
Now we're studying college and Intl rosters while thinking of lotto balls.

OMG, we've became Cavs fans every season, forever, when they havnt had James.

Not. Dead. Yet.
