Time to think about the future. Miami's priority this off-season is to trade Jimmy and get off from some of these contracts. Build around Bam, and I don't mean make him the #1 option... Bam is the anchor of the team and should be a #3 option when it's all set and done over the next couple of years. Keep your young talent. Start building for the future. Do not get these old, washed up players like Westbrook, or Lavine, or players who really won't move the needle like Ingraham, Trey Young, etc. to try and force this to work on Jimmy's timeline. He's 35 guys... let's get serious. Think about the future. Time to rebuild.

[@PointJovic]

Would love to keep Highsmith. Outside of Niko and Jaime, Haywood and his expanding offensive game was the only bright spot of the season for me.

[@juliogonzalez4764]

Highsmith only has a corner 3. He needs to go. Use that money on better role players.

[@Dizzelsoul3542]

​@juliogonzalez4764 First and foremost Haywood was a certified lock down defender

[@FDDavis]

@@Dizzelsoul3542”lockdown” defender is a REACH. Good, but not lockdown.

[@tonygee2634]

I want Jimmy gone, but he's worth more than 3 number 1's. You could get a good young player also.

[@Miles_305]

What a great opportunity to pick a clear direction and sort out their roster for the future. Hope they nail it cos being mid and hoping Jimmy throws on the cape come playoff time is not the answer.

[@miamiheat1455]

Jimmy boy is with the Heat for 5 long years he gave us 2 finals appearance and his BIG MOUTH. If we continue to have him and expect different results, are we insane?

[@SwiftSlay]

Any big shake up would have to include Tyler Herro cause we already pay Jimmy, Bam and now Rozier. To make room to get better you have to release a big contact 🏀

[@juliogonzalez4764]

The Heat need to learn to give developing players with promise (like Highsmith, Strus, Vincent) 4 year deals at a low price with team options after season 2. This will give the Heat some return on their investment, and if the player doesn't work out the Heat can let him go. Instead they give the player a 2 year deal with a player option. Makes no sense. If they always leave once they've been coached up why even go down that road. It's a waste of time. No other team does that BS. Just sign low cost veteran role players with experience. The coaching staff can concentrate on coaching the real NBA level players on our team and maybe we won't lose to Boston 7 out of 8 games in a season.

[@shawncain882]

You have to consider the flip side of giving developing players 4-year deals. As much as fans like to think we know better than GMs, we actually don't. And we don't even realize how much we don't know and understand the CBA.

[@kudzaiishegonese7667]

What does it mean? It means Anyone But Celtics We have to stop the back to back !!! 😂

[@davidriedy5977]

only way they win another one in this era is if they happen to go through another postseason without facing any adversity. If that happens then I guess they truly do possess the luck of the Irish or something. I don't think I've ever seen a championship run like that and I don't mean that in a good way lol. So I ain't worried

[@kingemhv1gamer421]

Trade everybody rebuild. I’m pissed Jimmy Butler the reason why the Celtics are champions

[@juliogonzalez4764]

The reason the Celtics are champions is because the Heat front office didn't get Dame. If the Heat get Dame they get better and the Bucks keep Holiday.

[@markc1839]

Heat front office got out played badly. I sincerely believe they are not interested in doing anything to substantially improve until existing contracts begin to expire.

[@Mr.Nyashty]

@@juliogonzalez4764I’ll take it further it was not trading Duncan and Herro after the bubble . The swath of stars and high level role players the heat turned their noses up on to hold these two is malpractice.

[@Miles_305]

The simple answer is to do what every other successful franchise has done (and what they have done in the past with Wade). BUILD THROUGH THE DRAFT, then get another star or missing pieces. Solves so many problems.

[@kyledeoliveira6038]

How do the heat have no wiggle room? When the Celtics,wolves, and knicks just to name a few have great rosters. We have bam and jimmy two guys whose offense isn’t the best. Just curious. Signing a true center, 3nD guy like KCP, and someone who can score 30 any given night is what we need.

[@shawncain882]

Riley gave Jimmy and Bam max extensions, and Herro & Robinson big contracts and traded for Rozier, who makes $20+ million

[@scaled-daddy22]

They have wiggle room they need to trade tyler

[@markc1839]

Paralysis Pat getting ready to run it back.

[@nickleavitt2671]

Great video

[@InvestorYOU]

Heat draft Zach Edey and Hunter Sallis probably most underrated best PG in the 2nd round, ZYON Pullin, Keshad Johnson, or Antonio Reeves. Zach Edey is NBA ready, great touch on offense, can pass out the double, and when you need an easy bucket. If they don't get a center then I'm done watching them onto they do someone like Edey. Sign Jonas in free agency. I love this teams chance with the new roster after this move. If you trade Jimmy it has to be 5 first round draft pick and 2 young players. If you go for Lauri, you give herro, 2 future first round pick, and sign and trade Highsmith Dejounte or Hunter Sallis or ZYON PULLIN, Keshad Johnson Terry or Malik Monk Niko Jaime Jimmy Duncan Bam Kevin Love Zach Edey Jonas Val or Nic Claxton

[@scaled-daddy22]

Heat need to get picks for Jimmy and draft properly the next few years and slowly build up & make some good trades down the road

The Miami Heat's season is over. What's next? 4:15

[@gumshoe101]

Are you sure Jimmy can't even discuss an extension until july? I thought that was just for signing it

[@shawncain882]

Exactly, how can a team who already has a player under contract not even discuas an extension until a certain date? Makes no sense whatsoever

[@kevinward6141]

His agent can back channel but nothing can officially happen in July. However if Pat says no extension talks period Jimmy agent will find a trade

[@whoisthe8626]

Take care of jimmy first

[@Taino727]

1 Donovan Mitchell 2 Zach Lavine 3 Trae Young

[@EdDroidYT]

Lavine is not it he's down the list at least 5 spots lol Trae #2

[@Taino727]

@@EdDroidYT on my list he's #2 look at the numbers 6'6 Elite Scorer just 1 season ago played 77 games and averaged 24.8 I would be fine with either of the 3 but Donovan Mitchell would he my top choice

[@Aitor_io]

Would rather get two starters in Murray and Kuzma, I think it is possible if Atlanta is willing to trade Dejounte. To compete against Boston or teams in the west we need size and we can’t have defensive liabilities as we do now. Dejounte, Jaime, Jimmy, Kyle and Bam is a great starting five with better scoring, better defense and more size.

[@rayswn]

I hope Dian Wright do what'is best for him and his family.

[@julioinfanteramos6535]

If the rumors are true, that the Pelicans are trading their 20th pick for two/3 second round picks Heat should jump all over that

[@julioinfanteramos6535]

@scaled-daddy22 yea but they have future 2nd round picks

Hope they trade Jimmy and Tyler. Get younger and taller athletic guys.

Should the Heat look towards Ball and Drummond instead?

[@rayswn]

Heat front office to cheap please sell the team to Amazon owner .

[@Miles_305]

Actually they do spend! They are the 11th highest spending team in the NBA.

[@Taino727]

I don't realistically see this team having a real chance to win a Championship while tryna stay under the second apron

[@ryansproviero]

How close to his ceiling is Herro? That's the real question with him. Does he have it in him to take another step forward? For me, it's in his ball handling and that's where his below-average wingspan plays a disadvantage. His shooting as well but he's overcome it for the most part in that aspect. My gut says it's time to move on and take a step towards dialing back the cap. I've looked to Utah because Ainge has been rumored in the past to like Herro. The Spurs might be the more realistic target. They have the cap space and picks to make it work. Open some space, add/upgrade a draft pick, and keep Haywood and/or Caleb. I know people want to make a splash but sometimes the pool is closed.

[@Shpankyy]

He hit is ceiling at 22

[@gumshoe101]

Really think the roster is pretty much already set, HH and Caleb will walk, replaced by Jaquez and Jamal Cain. Bam, Butler, Herro, Rozier, Duncan, Jaquez, Jovic, Cain, JRich, Love/TB, Patty, 15th pick, that's 12 roster spots filled then there's Wrigth, ORob, Swider, and the 43rd pick. We would duck the 2nd apron...a Butler trade obviously changes things a bit

[@shawncain882]

Salary dumping Robinson ducks the 2nd apron and gives the team a lot more flexibility for making moves to improve the team.

[@143mrqz]

Ave 4 point a game bye

[@Aitor_io]

I think this would be the perfect off-season for the heat, it’s the best option if we want to win now without fully destroying our future and depth. Miami receives: Dejounte Murray and Kyle Kuzma (they lose herro 3 first round picks and a second round pick) Utah receives Tyler Herro (they lose Collin sexton and a second round pick) Washington receives Rozier, a Miami first round pick and a Miami 2nd round pick (they lose Kuzma) Atlanta receives: Collin Sexton, two Miami first round pics, a Utah second round pick (They lose dejounte) I wanted to move Tyler and two picks to Atlanta, but i dont see the fit with Trae. Utah had shown interest in Tyler so I sent Colin and a second to Atlanta instead of Tyler (Idk if this is an accurate value for Tyler tbh, i stuggle a lot with Tyler's value) Miami trade tyler and picks to surround Bam and Jimmy with size, defense and scoring to compete now in the east while keeping key role players as Duncan, Jaime and Jovic. Also resigning both Haywood Highsmith and Delon Wright. Starting 5: Murray, Jaime, Jimmy, Kyle, Bam 2 options: Delon, Duncan, Highsmith, Jovic, Love
