I wish i could like this post more than once. It's not just John problem it's the Heat organization problem as a whole.

Miami is a team of PIECES.

Jaquez, Ware, Highsmith, Jovic... they're good players as a collective and fun to watch, but they'd be GREAT PIECES on a team that's contending for a chip. If that's not what you're on then them niggas is TRADE FODDER.

And what's crazy is i heard people say they're saving up for the Giannis sweepstakes, like Houston ain't got the assets to be in the mix (and win) there too...

Bro, it's about to be a cold few years in Miami... change their name to the Lukewarms... ain't gone be no Heat for a while my boy...
I agree. Pieces. They messed up somewhere down the line where they got a team of role players. All of them.
 
I think I valued Jalen Green more than Rockets fans did cuz that one shocked me. BUT he has underwhelmed so far, so I get it

The NBA & the Rockets did a good job marketing him as a young up & coming star. I get why because he's a freak athlete who was hyped up coming into his draft.

I wanted him to succeed just like every Rockets fan but I came to the realization around last season that he's not the guy to lead a team.

He's not a bust. He's still young & he can very well be an all star one day if he's in the right situation where he's not the #1 guy.
 


Young pussies needed room for their Shirley Temples.
I'm not going to put that completely on them. Championship celebrations of yesteryear featured Cristal, Armand de Brignac, Moet, Dom Perignon, and other top shelf champagnes.

Now they're giving these dudes Michelob Ultra. Even the damn championship liquor celebration has to have branding. I wouldn't want to drink that shit either.
 
You know what's hilarious,Shai is the first person from the 2018 draft to win a title...You had Luka,Trae,Bagley,Ayton MPJ, Sexton, J3 and few others in that draft yet nobody thought Shai would be the first from that draft to win it first.

Actually he's the 4th...
First MVP and first of the 5 All-Stars (Luka, JJ, Trae, SGA, Bunson)

Michael Porter Jr - Denver

Bruce Brown - Denver
Donte DiVincenzo - Mil
