Heat and many teams with this new CBA are in a tough spot. Heat are a win now team with Butler's age and injury record. They really only have 1 more year to make a run with the team as is. Besides Butler and Bam...all of the team's money for next year is locked up on Lowry ($30M), Duncan ($18M), Herro ($27M). Strus and Vincent (replaceable) will bump up 23-24 to the midrange $10-12M+ and will likely have to be traded at that cost. It's solid that Caleb and Highsmith are still locked in at low cost. Besides Herro nobody else is desirable from a trading standpoint. Almost $50M for Lowry and Duncan is atrocious. Like every team in the league everyone is searching for a top forward player who can defend 1-5 or at least 1-4 and put up double digits. Next season will likely be a repeat with Heat, Bucks, and the Celtics being the real contesters and Sixers one step back.
big mistake by eric not to play hh big mistake not to have big yert ready to rumble with a guy his same size.and to continue to start g leaguer max .gabe gets somewhat of a pass ref took him out of last game.this game he was horrible.but gabes been ok offensively but suks defensively just to small.
Jimmy and Bam are both fantastic. They've taken the Heat far in the playoffs multiple times. But right now they're both getting outplayed by Murray and Jokic.
Dame is rarely hurt. Last season was his first real injury. This season he just sat out so the Blazers could tank because they are a clown show of a franchise right now.
Terrible trade. Miami needs a good two-way, pass first, point guard who can shoot 3's, a two-way SG who can shoot 3's and a two-way PF or C who can stretch the floor. Miami also needs to develop Yurtseven, Cain, Highsmith, Jovic and O. Robinson. Strus, Vincent, Love, Zeller, Lowry and Duncan may all be gone next year, one way or the other.
They want dame so bad it’s embarrassing. He’s small oft injured and a cone on defense and tbh if I were trading for a guard I’d rather take sharpe or simons over lillard.
Dame has the worst SG defensive rating in NBA. Heat can't win without a two-way PG (VanVleet) and a big who can spread floor to help Bam in the paint (Brook Lopez? Isaiah Stewart? Wendell Carter? Zach Collins? Omer Yurtseven)?
y we got assets and picks ty caleb picks it looks like its between us and nets we got jimmy and bam .they got bridges and not much else.dame wants to win he comes to south beach
Good game. The better team showed despite the Refs helping the heat a bit much to give them a chance. Butler needed to be the guy but wasn’t there today.
Max and Gabe combined to go 4 for 27 in the last two games.
Turning back into pumpkins.
This was a shocking playoff run for me at least. Looked like a new squad. But the 3PT woes from the regular season have returned, and Denver is simply far more talented.
Again thank you. Some of the commentators are here are just to root for a loss. Like if I hated the team this much and didn't believe in any of them I would just turn the game off and not commment on it. It's a great team to be proud of
I’m Not arguing with you. That’s what y’all be wanting you and reality Czech and then as soon as someone says something that hurt y’all feelings y’all blocking me

dunc max gabe cannot be playing minutes or on this team next year
Those guys have won a lot of playoff series in Heat unis. I would be more than happy to have them back next year.
That being said, we probably shouldn't have two of those guys starting next year
feel bad for jimmy tho. he can drag you into the finals, but he needs a robin. bam aint it. this offseason lets get dame
Jimmy and Bam are both fantastic. They've taken the Heat far in the playoffs multiple times. But right now they're both getting outplayed by Murray and Jokic.
Dame is always hurt. Dame has missed the 2nd, 3rd of the season 3 year straight. He's stealing money from Portland.
Dame is rarely hurt. Last season was his first real injury. This season he just sat out so the Blazers could tank because they are a clown show of a franchise right now.
not true superstar.save him for playoffs play him jimmy 60 games
yup bams a good player all round just not a point getter
Portland Trail Blazers Receive: Tyler Herro, Caleb Martin, Nikola Jovic, Victor Oladipo, No. 18 pick in 2023, 2027 first-round pick, 2029 first-round pick
Terrible trade. Miami needs a good two-way, pass first, point guard who can shoot 3's, a two-way SG who can shoot 3's and a two-way PF or C who can stretch the floor.

Not for Dame "Always Hurt" Dollar.
Rather trade jimmy there get that number 3 pick and build around build around that. Only reason not bam cause he’s younger.
get some bruce browns aaron gordons 2 wayers,fk these one wayers sick of them
jimmy bam dame can win a chip
Dame has the worst SG defensive rating in NBA. Heat can't win without a two-way PG (VanVleet) and a big who can spread floor to help Bam in the paint (Brook Lopez? Isaiah Stewart? Wendell Carter? Zach Collins? Omer Yurtseven)?
No they can’t
hhh fan behave we came in 2nd place whos your team
Not arguing with you crybaby time to blow this team up
bam jimmy keepers u can blow the rest up
Trade jimmy to Portland for that number 3 pick build around that
who is # 3 pick .michael beasley
Nah scoot or miller rebuild time buddy need top picks and athleticism clown
we can only dream what the cavs down 3-1 did vs warriors. doesnt change a thing. 3 more wins. or one more L. still Go Heat!
manila the ultimate optimist.only way we win if joker and murray get hurt
spo u coached a terrible game stfu
for dolphin fans there interested in dalvin cook that made my sports head feel better.im pissed at jimmy right now
next year jimmys needs to be our 2nd best player bam 3rd.gotta get dame here
They need a playable center outside of bam. As much as I love dame, a 6'2" player on a max contract is NOT what this team needs
Dame is a waste. Always hurt.
let me ck that
lillard shot 57% 2s 46% 3s get his ass down here pat jimmy needs help
Another small player. Sure
I want dame ,but I feel like the nets might get him.
y we got assets and picks ty caleb picks it looks like its between us and nets we got jimmy and bam .they got bridges and not much else.dame wants to win he comes to south beach
really making it hard for themselves. they dont want it the easy way. oh well, on to game 5
Good game. The better team showed despite the Refs helping the heat a bit much to give them a chance. Butler needed to be the guy but wasn’t there today.
we got all the whistles butler suks.what happened to him
He doesn’t suck. Just had nothing left from the previous 7 game series and Gabe, Martin, etc came back down to realistic shooting numbers.
of course he doesnt suck but w/o him balling out we have no shot vs denver
Time to trade him
Hopefully the panthers can win the cup.
2 minutes from being down 3 0
We need to make some trades and some sizeable acquisitions. Also need a bigger line up next season. Time to smoke the pain away.
boston fans sitting home bucks fans watching unreal year heat with 2 good players and 13 scrubolas
We don't have a point guard. Bam at point kills the ability of this team rebounding.
go panthers
Max and Gabe combined to go 4 for 27 in the last two games.
Turning back into pumpkins.
This was a shocking playoff run for me at least. Looked like a new squad. But the 3PT woes from the regular season have returned, and Denver is simply far more talented.
The Cinderella analogy is spot on. The clock seems to have struck midnight
i think denver can beat the heat without joker thats a scary thought
spo u suk to terrible spobot.max and gabe start next game
Honestly they should sit everyone who has any trade value so they don't get injured.
kevin love was like our best player in first half hardly played second half
do we fly to denver save some $$ mickey on expenses
jimmy s team jimmy failed please stfu jimmy u suk
dunc on brown last game dunc on braun
No point guard = no rebounds from PG Bam.
When was the last time they won at home?
Rebuild time
dunc please be on another team next year.
It's time to blow this shit up. The Heat will never win the chip with this team. 😒
Careful they might block you. The jimmy bam mob don’t like truths
u dont think hh can play like bruce brown need 2wayers dunc max cant stay up with these guys
dunc d again guarding brown lol
Herro butler to Portland for number 3 pick. Let the garbage g leaguers who suddenly forgot how to play get money somewhere else.
Win or lose I'm still proud of the heat
Again thank you. Some of the commentators are here are just to root for a loss. Like if I hated the team this much and didn't believe in any of them I would just turn the game off and not commment on it. It's a great team to be proud of
Lol just because y’all are losers. Do the runner up get remembered in history losers?
There no Trophy for 2nd place.
They already got the 2nd place trophy
Bout to get it again. 3 times in 4 years runner up participation trophy
id trade jimmy for some youngens he still good but hes got maybe a year or 2 left
We're playing soft. No aggressiveness.
Bam butler 0-2 in the finals y’all get mad whenever someone wants to break them up
talent level big difference
❤️ not talent level.
joker talent u serious
This series is over 😢
yes no shame though finals for this team great accomplishment.jimmy failed us
Participation trophy

dunc d lol unplayable ill still say rc will kill me

Lol
Turnovers killing us

man who u rather have murray or brunson prob 2 best pgs next to steph
Need some 3s
gotta help on duncan leaving green wide open
Bam so garbage it’s pathetic
No you're garbage
Thank you. Like maybe we lose, but seeing some "fans" dumping on guys playing this hard after making the finals is really lame to me
I'm sure a lot of team's players played hard, doesn't mean they should be happy with how their season went.
Yeah but we should
Playing hard?
Yup, I don't confuse missing a shot with bad effort. But some folks just won't pass up a chance to dump on their team
7-19 sure
Lmao
Whatever y’all crybabies say
not really sir
I’m Not arguing with you. That’s what y’all be wanting you and reality Czech and then as soon as someone says something that hurt y’all feelings y’all blocking me
lowry not doing much might want to go with love.hes been really good
Love needs to be out there
gordon played great game .they always seem to have 3rd guy that plays good
He’s a bum

Lmao he wouldn’t play like this on Mia.
Again he’s a bum.
