We better get Gallinari man. Miami is going to have a lot of money to work with though got rid of 2-3 bad contracts(i included Winslow due to health concerns and uneven play) for 2 expiring contracts and iggy a proven vet. Would have to assume another move is on the way

Good deal for the Heat, got rid of Johnson's and Waiter's contracts and landed Iggy. Jae Crowder and Hill are both guys who defend their position well so they fit what Miami likes in their role players. They are also on lower expiring deals.

Thing is we have barely even played the players we just traded this year so that doesn’t impact this team negatively when you think about it: this is a win for Miami especially on the defensive end. Let’s see if we can get Gallinari deal done

Love, love iggy. Great vet, great defender. Playmaker whose smart with the ball in his hands. High IQ. That said, without Gallo, this move doesn't bring us closer to entering the elite tier the Bucks/Raptors are in. Iggy isn't going to make us a significantly better road team. We needed Galo and Iggy. Gave up a core, young piece in Winslow. Hill is an expiring contract and Crowder is overrated. Can't play Crowder with Iggy/Bam, Iggy/Jimmy or Jimmy/Bam because he's too bad of a shooter. Will be the 10th or 11th man. Playoffs are all about your top 8/9 - already have Jimmy, Bam, Nunn, Iggy, Dragic, DJJ, Herro, Robinson, Leonard (not a big fan) or Olynk.

I understand why Gallo would feel that way, but he’s a shooter and his game ages well, I think he would still be able to put up good stats and get that last contract he wanted if he signed a 1 and 1 with the heat. Plus he’s always hurt, so another injury hurts his chances in free agency this season... should take the money that’s there right now given his history.

heat dont want to eat into their 21 space bc you never know whats available or who wants in. if say, youre insanely good and your youngs develop at a rapid pace, more guys wanna come or if even bam continues to take another step. i get it from the heats POV. either a team friendly extension or none at all. he isnt betting on his body it seesm and wants job security

End of the day Miami needed wing defenders. Our Defense has been lacking from December on. That 2-3 zone is going to get ate up vs teams who shoot 3s in the playoffs so getting guys like iggy and crowder Is big in that sense. This allows us to play more Man to man defense which can’t be ignored as that’s a big positive. Not to mention how we have shedded 3 bad contracts(yes Winslow is a bad contract as hes always hurt).Kind of upset that we didn’t get Gallinari but at the end of day they still improved some for sure especially on the defensive end and with playoff experience. We have enough shooting elsewhere

any reason why these Giannis Miami 2021 rumors are so frequent? Everybody keeps talking about it in the basketball community. Must be smoke there if you ask me. I KNOW Victor oladipo would be interested for sure
 
Pat Riley big game hunting



Riley must know something about who they can get in the next year or 2
