D-Wait is over. Let the rebuild begin... The Official 2016-2017 Miami Heat Season Thread

Now you turn to the draft? When I told you the draft was the answer you slapped my hand away I told you to take my hand and walk with me into oblivion that is tanking, and you laughed. Now you want the Lottery to deliver you from evil when disciples of the tank have been building their resume all season? You are my breh, but you denied the power of the tank, the lottery doesn't look kindly on that

We gonna be on the outside of the lotto like this

Pat needs to make some sort of trade package. We've really drafted poorly since 2004 anyway. Who've we taken? Winslow, Tyler Johnson, and Mario Chalmers? That's our best in the last 13 years of the draft. Gotta find a trade we can swing that's gonna bring someone here.

[BushidoBrown]

The tank is the way my brother, you're going to have to do it sooner or later The odds of yall winning the lottery are basically mega million type odds this year and the players at 14 just aren't impact guys

I can't even think of any star player drafted outside the top ten besides Kobe and Steve Nash in 1996 that was a real cornerstone. Shaq, Kareem, Larry, Magic, Hakeem, Alonzo, Yao Ming, LeBron, Wade, Dwight, before happened, Russell, KD, Har_en, Curry, and Duncan all went in the top ten.

I'm really disappointed because being in no man's land is the worst possible spot as a team, outside of being the fukking nets, but I'm still really proud of the team and the guys.

Poorly? We only had two lottery picks during that time and the only bad pick we made relative to draft position was Beasley.

 

[Armchair Militant]

That might be it for UD brehs

 

[Big D Bangston]

Well to the Heat and to ya'll. See ya in the offseason.

It happens, but I feel like posting about the guys will get people's hopes up in this thread -


Giannis & Kawhi - 15th pick
Jimmy Butler - 30th pick
Karl Malone - 13th pick

But, it's such a rarity and there doesn't seem to be anyone in this draft that fits that mold.

The spurs havent been in the lottery since 1997 and still manage to draft useful/impact players, including Parker and Manu

That raptors loss came back to bite tall
