Rebuild the Realm: Official 2014 Miami Heat OffSeason Thread

[prophecypro]

Yo what time does Lebetard's show air? I want to see hear his reaction tomorrow

3pm for the local hour, 4pm est for ESPN nationwide

It'll probably be like the one after 2011 loss where for the first 10 minutes he's just taking calls about the upcoming NFL season and cuts the phone everytime someone comes on to talk about the Heat,

 

[G-Zeus]

hoping he takes like a 4 year 60 million dollar deal

that would be better than what he has now.

5-6 mil off the first two years would give room for more players.. younger players


bosh willing to take a cut too...

Copying this post from the season thread

I'm going to put this here.

The most disheartening thing about this season is that everything the Heat did was to make sure D.Wade was fresh for the ECF and Finals. Everything. Overplaying Bron and Bosh during the Regular season. Sacrificing a run and at HCA.

But, Wade still looked terrible just like he did against the Pacers in 2012 and the Finals Last year.

Dude has chronic knee issues. He has to take it on himself to become leaner and a better 3point shooter next year.

His decision will be the biggest decision this summer.

If wade didn't take last summer serious and try to shed weight, I don't expect this summer to be different. He's obviously playing too 20 pounds too heavy

Y'all REALLY need to do something to address the lack of help Bosh is getting down low. He REALLY needs to be back at the 4 and the center spot needs to be addressed immediately.

If Wade opts in, he needs to get on that Ray Allen diet and workout plan. As Primetime21 said above, he is too heavy. he also needs to retool his game. Catch and shoot mainly from here on out.

A lot of us were advocating the Heat getting Gortat and Gasol in the season thread.

My ultimate signing this offseason would somehow getting Lowry and Gortat but the money isn't there. But I would take that over Melo all fukking day. If LeBron opts out, and we keep Bosh and Wade, Riley should push for those two.

Would absolutely make the most sense getting somebody like Gortat. He's a double-double guy, doesn't have a lot of mileage on him since he plays around 30 mpg, doesn't need plays called for him to produce, and he's the passer in the post Miami REALLY needs

Doubt Lebron is leaving, where he gonna go? He has trust in Riley, we will be back next season

Riley is 68 yrs-old and entrenched in his ways. He refuses to inject youth into the team.. His philosophy was always win now and to hell with the future.

The way the team is stuctured bein so top heavy its gonna be hard to inject youth.

There needs to be a philosophical change.

He has no choice now.

Riley discards 1st rd picks like old tattered underwear.

 

[Alexander The Great]

that 3rd and 4th year better be team options, if Wade looks like this at 32, what is he gonna look like at 35 and 36.

think that would be the only way to entice him into taking that much of a pay cut

How do we feel about Grevis vasquez brehs? i think he could be a great addition to the team

naw, I see a lot of Chalmers in Vasquez. I watched him in the playoffs this season with the
I might look at Isiah Thomas, I think he's a free agent

yeah, and tbh it has worked. But I feel like he has to have looked at this team this season, and watched the finals and realized we aren't athletic or young enough

We have been shouting this for a while. Bosh is NOT a center and is playing out of position. Its one of the things affecting his production. Me personally I have been advocating for Bosh to be no 2 since 2012.

Birdman to opt out of his contract

We need revamp our offense to get everyone involved. An offense that will optimize Bosh's talent in the low block. In the Finals, Duncan and Splitter didn't have any foul troubles. They hold their position in the lane, which made it difficult for Wade and James to attack the lane. There wasn't any big in the paint to attack the Spurs' front-court defense and to grab offensive rebound.
