    That guy as almost 5K subscribers? Damn, that is a lot of victims drinking endless bottles of whine. People can fan all they want, but a dose of reality wouldn't hurt.

    I can find a bunch more of Heat homers crying on youtube about the memo.

    Heat are on the verge of a bubble team with not near as much upside next year. Riley is inching closer to eighty.

    They will up the offer or get caught with their pants down.

    I read a hippy report yesterday, it will take millions of years for the ice caps to melt. I think Florida has time to prepare.

    I think another aspect Miami needs to consider is if they don’t put up what is needed to get Dame, what does that say to Butler & Bam about their commitment?

    Miami is in kinda the same place as the Blazers a few years back, on the cusp but can easily slide downhill with the wrong moves.

    I think they have more pressure than the Blazers.

    I almost feel sorry for Dame. He is an all-star without a team.

    The only trade I see working with the Heat is; a trade built around Dame for Jimmy Butler

    Agree, BUT.

    Dame is two months older than Jimmy. They make the same amount, but Jimmy's contract is 1 season shorter.

    Maybe the trade sends Jimmy to third team instead of Hero?

    If the choice is keeping Dame, or trading for Jimmy. Jimmy would be the better fit.

    You bring up a great point. Nobody is even willing to discuss Bam or Jimmy for Dame. It's a forgone conclusion that those two are off limits and they need Dame to pair with to compete. The common theme is Portland is being selfish to Dame and Miami.

    Utter nonsense.
