Miami never has money but where all these other teams get all that money. Milwaukee, Boston, Philly, how they always have money wtf

[@heyarnold8023]

Exactly bro Boston entire starting 5 is worth a billion dollars literally

[@razielthagreat]

Its not that the heat dont have the money, they are unwilling to pay the tax penalties when you go deep into the 2nd apron. So those other teams you mentioned are paying SUPER high tax penalties for having those rosters. Thats why. the money is always there, but you have to pay steep penalties on taxes in order to do that

[@Fixing_the_system]

@razielthagreat2109 I see, so other teams pay for talent and Miami wants to do it the cheap way. Man hurts as a fan cause we can see clearly we don't have the horses, so another over achieving season, slightly above 500, playoffs, recycle again every year

[@pbrewster11]

Exactly always complaining of no money. They will never get nobody then. Kyle kuzma is out there also Collin Sexton come on now Miami you wanna win need more help. All these other teams have loaded up on players at least one of these can help out.

[@esimms5101]

You make it sound like a bad thing lol. Midrange wins finals. Check the history

[@junhoward359]

I would rather strong role players than Demar Derozan. He isn't a consistent 3 point shooter, nor is Jimmy, nor is Bam...... We need shooters and size, it's that simple. I would've loved Trae way more, even if he's undersized.

[@dennislopez1272]

This makes zero sense for this team. This ain't the 80s. We can't "midrange jumper" our way to the finals. I want Tyler gone, but how this works doesn't make sense. None of our young players should be dealt. I'm also tired of trading our first round picks for guys who aren't gonna make a real difference. Lauri Markenen got better when he got away from the Derozen led Bulls. Iq don't want that to happen to our young guys. Trade Jimmy and start looking for the next DWade.

[@czyseason658]

Bro you are literally just yapping your mouth just to yap. Like what are you even talking about. Demar has never played with Lauri.

[@dennislopez1272]

@@czyseason658 You are correct. Lauri didn't cross over with him. Vuc hasn't looked good since he's been there, though. The fact of the matter is, that type of basketball, doesn't win. It's been almost 2 decades since a team built with midrange jumpers could win a title. If I'm just yapping, prove me wrong. In recent history, where has that formula worked? When has the lead scorer of a championship team not been a good to great 3 point shooter? I'll wait for your response.

[@pabloochoa2995]

I also have reservations about DeMar. I think it is time to give up the whale hunt and add depth. I would try Tyus Jones. He could be back up to Terry, provide 3pt shooting and make it easier for the big men to score. This would mean giving up Caleb and maybe a sign and trade

[@Icccecolddd]

Tobin, trade Tyler & Duncan and get Demar. Pick up Buddy and run it with that team. Chicago, Brooklyn, and Utah and would want Tyler. Duncan also could go to a handful of teams. That could clean our books. Demar is 10 times better than Kyle. Jimmy and Demar could switch between 2-3

[@jefourty]

Hope we could get cam johnson from brooklyn

[@mobyvic404]

I knew it!! Definitely thought about this during demars post game interview in the play in

[@escourse]

We aint getting Jack, we only get used by players as leverage to get a leg in their negotiation process with other teams. Our owner is a CHEAP SKATE. Only way he ends up in Miami is if he values winning over $$$$ and come on board at a 80% discount for a shot at winning the chip. I think this is too much to expect from a player.

If we can’t get an excellent high score letal from 3s to make the team better than can be on top 3 team on the East( what at this point it’s almost impossible)THEM if we can improve our Championship possibilities we have to keep what we have BUT sell Butter and get the most than we can for him and wait for next offseason and make the moved earlier before everyone for a Big Whale. Use kel’e Ware a lot this season too.

[@Canesnation305]

I’ve been saying to get Derozan, knows bully ball, can get his own shot, in that same era of hard ball that Jimmy ,is in hungry for a chip, you can start him at the 2 and keep Jimmy at the three and bring Tyler off the bench Sign him pat please

[@REDSavage369]

If Derozan would take the mid level that’s a huge win. It’s probably not going to happen and he’s most likely using the Heat as leverage like every other team.

[@mariovargas4816]

Forget it Pat Riley and Mickie are the cheapest owners in yhe NBA the fact that the pelicans got Murray for cheap means the heat is not even trying to get a good player, si I don't blame Jimmy Butler for playing half ass.. show the heat we don't like it don't go to the games.. how come Boston can have multiple high paying players and we can't.. Heat owners are cheap!!!!!

[@SuperGuidance]

Why would any all-star level player go to the lakers?? They have reddick as their head coach with 0️⃣ coaching experience, drafted a college player who averaged less than 5 ppg , and you have an aging all star who can no longer defend, so we can rule out LA. Trade herro (should have traded him 2 yrs ago) and bring in DeRozan. Simple!

Why doesn't he fit the team? Cause he doesn't shoot threes? He's 42 % from the corner. PJ Tucker and Jake Crowder were efficient shooter here. Y'all are dumb.
