Herro Rumors

[Saint Cy of JFC]

They’ve been that… after Lebron they have landed Jimmy who was a free agent and Lowry who was a free agent. KD multiple times, Gordon, have been some recent misses. They may not have the ammo for a star bigger than Dame and waiting a year or two likely means Jimmy is on the heavy decline. They should have some urgency here.

I get you want to argue with me about anything, but cmon.

I literally saw spoiled Heat fans talking about it yesterday. Just cuz a team is at the top of the list it doesn’t mean the guy ends up there and NBA seems to be a little agitated with this stuff… doesn’t mean it will stop but teams will outbid them for Giannis, Embiid, Doncic unless they can put together some assets next couple years. Dame gave one team and is in their price range… old enough that other teams are leery of the deal. Miss here and I think it may close the book on Jimmy Heat title chances.

Btw anyone in here think that Heat can make mends with Herro if this falls through?

I 100% agree with this but I think the important thing is Pat Riley doesnt. If Toronto makes a better offer and Cronin takes that to Riley he is gonna say "let them have him".

I think its a mistake for the reasons you outlined.

Windy touched this subject yesterday and said Miami going all-in isnt likely happening, and they arent gonna lose their sleep if it falls through.

Herro wants to be in Miami. This isnt Cleveland making someone upset.

I think Pat will bring a better offer (if he’s even given one) but they likely are trying to hold onto Martin (going to a third team for stuff) and avoid going to OKC and changing pick protections so they can offer another pick. They also might be trying to avoid taking Nurk (sounds like Phoenix will help)… I just think if he’s saying Herro and trying to keep a pick or withholding Jaquez or Jovic that it’s jumping over dollars to keep dimes.

I’d say 75% chance they work it out but it’s gonna get dicey if another team puts up stuff they have been withholding

I just dont think Miami should be thinking, or are thinking, "we have to maximize the Jimmy window". They are Miami. They will get more and better stars. I know some people hate it, but it's reality.

I wonder how teams seem to over value certain players.

Rumor was Terrance Mann was what made the Harden to the Clippers fall through. Harden, George and kawhi is a killer threesome if they stay healthy. Puts the clips in title contention but they don't want to include mann.

Portland not wanting Herro I understand but that but that train as proposed seems great for every team involved. Henderson, Simons, Sharpe, Ayton is a very good start to a rebuild. Throw in Jovic, Jaquez, thybull, Murray, and Rupert and it looks amazing.

Good hell Portland make the deal.

Yeah, tell that to the post-Kobe and pre-LeBron Lakers.

You mean the post Kobe Lakers where they got Lebron? They will always get someone. It might take a period of time, but it will happen. This isnt a low to mid tier team that has to grasp for straws at their once in thirty yeary window.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Of course there will be a period were the Heat aren't great and may struggle for a few years, but that's all the more reason to not spend a ton of future assets for a guy they don't have to have. It's a near guarantee they will attract another star at some point in the not to distant future.

And y'all can argue with me all you want, but that's the position they are taking and it will probably work unless someone goes crazy like Cleveland did. And if it doesn't work it's not really a big deal in the grand scheme of the Heats future.
