NBA OT KNICKS vs Heat

Big giants fan (nothing comes close to the canes) but NYC sports fans don’t know sh about sports I tell you that. They live in fantasy land but I at least witnessed two superbowl I can live with that. Canes win one while I’m an adult I can die happy, even if all my other teams lose

Been around long time, Giant fan as a kid, but they sucked in the 60’s. Along came Joe Willie and Jets, then the Mets WS WIN, then the Knicks NBA Ship. Went to UM in time for the still undefeated Dolphs 72’ team. Lived in ATL, while the Braves made their run and 96 WS win. While in Ga. Got to see Herschel and Dawgs win NC. And of course the Canes NC’s. Came back down to SOFLA and enjoyed the Heat and Cats championships. Been a pretty good run. Nothing like living in a city or state where there good teams and championships.

I’m dying for the Heat to get sane and blow it up. They’ve been so minus on assets since they got Lebron, it’s a long time to be in win now. This nucleus needs a total overhaul, it’s time. Bam and Herro both have real value, They’ve got to take a step back to go foreward. Look at how OKC built. Trade stars, get ahead on assets, draft and develop smart for a few years. They didn’t even have to mega tank, just be really young and play hard and develop winning players in a losing situation while you flip your books around.

The alternative of like emptying the coffers for Giannis or some other star, we’re in the same position we’ve been in. Frisky but not good enough. If you took a little time, we could start the next iteration. The car is running on fumes now.

That's just not how they operate and I don't see it happening til Riley retires. Now if they fail to execute a big trade for a 3rd star this summer, maybe they consider it.

1. The Heat doesnt tank
2. OKC is in the same position the Heat were 2 years ago which is why the heat doesnt tank
3. Because of the Heats development the draft isnt as important.
So its like a catch 22.

Me personally i would slang one out of the two of Herro or Bam to grab something. I also wouldve tanked at the end and not make the playoffs this year in hopes of getting in the lottery with the pick...but the nba does the heat no favors as that pick ended up #15 to OKC any **** way and we got #20. smh

The heat really got screwed with the dame lillard situation. Changed the trajectory a bit as dame, jimmy b, bam wouldve been a nice 3.

Teams seldom even want to trade with the heat as they always get fleeced. So we will see how we improve from here on out

shocking. dude is a bum. cant come up w an offensive strategy and pulling starters with 152 left of an elimination game? bad look. tbh, their roster is basically maxed out as it is. they have to resign bridges after trading all those picks for him and everyone else aside from Brunson is locked up to big money. brunsons next deal wont be a discount either

They don’t have 2 stars. Bam and Herro are excellent starters who have been propped up by a great coach and organizational infrastructure. And I love them. But this team is a 10 seed that just got the doors blown off by the Cavs. They’ve got some awful contracts on the books no young star potential, no real assets moving forward.

It doesn’t matter if that’s not how the organization operates. This is how they’re operating. The team isn’t good. No shame in it, they had a great run. They have a great reputation in the league. Take the 2 years to change gears.

this.

bam is a tertiary star on an elite team (like a Draymond).

Tyler is an all star sixth man on an elite team.

they need to shop herro this offseason and move bam for picks/young players (hes getting clsoe to 30 and hes not going to contend with this roster as it stands).

This is an objectively hilarious conclusion to Pete's argument lol

This is my argument exactly. This is great news. They are capped with him as coach. They made a change. Unlike the Heat, who rest on their laurels.

Just as the Heat are capped with Spo as coach without LeBron.

That stable and elite Knicks front office just fired the first coach to take them to the eastern conference finals in 25 years. Pete will sugarcoat this as not sitting on their laurels, but let’s see who they bring in. I bet they don’t get as far next year.

It sounds crazy but NY should have kept Divincenzo and Hartenstein over the effeminate Towns and Bridges. They basically had two women replace a couple guys who were perfect fits last season.
