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

Damn yall niccas is fukked.

They will be better next year.

We started off the season dealing with the losses of Wade and Bosh on top of dealing with injuries and most importantly chemistry issues. New offense and very new faces. The team was supposed to start slow. The emergence of Dion Waiters and James Johnson turned the team around. Should we keep the same team and add 1 or two pieces we can expect more success next season. Our core are still young.

What we have is a championship caliber supporting cast to put around a star player like a Wade or LeBron type wing. The problem is that we need to find a way to get someone like that before this core team ages out and it's back to square one.

fukk that, I root for the best team we can create...

Paying Dion Waiters 15-20 mil till 2022 based on 46 games ain't the best team we can create

I even said in the offseason, me and @Draje that we would win more games because he's the only one that could create in the halfcourt.

Did he exceed my expectations? hell yeah, doesn't mean I view him as the damn future

Well call Riley about that shyt sense u are so mad we ain't tank when u yourself knew Riley is against tanking

Let justise learn how to put the ball in the hole before asking him to lead a team into the playoffs. 57.5% at the rim as a rookie, 47.5% this year. 38% from 3-10 feet both seasons so far. 28% from 10-16 feet as a rookie. 21.4% this year. 36% from 16-23 feet as a rookie. 30.4% this year. 27% from deep as a rookie. 20% this year. 68.4% at the line as a rookie. 61.7% this year.

Blo is a troll, don't respond to his nonsense

 

[DontDoIt]

We will be a top 3 seed next year and justise will lead us to the ECF

Spo and the players go out there and try to win games. It was Riley's job to pull the plug. The only ways to really pull the plug on this team would've been trading Hassan or Goran. Maybe he didn't get the offer he wanted. Those are good contracts.

Let's have Justise shoot over 40% and actually force teams to guard him from the perimeter before we have him leading us anywhere



If we keeping the same team, we probably not gonna have enough to add pieces unless JJ and Waiters take huge pay cuts. $30 mil between Reed, JJ, and Waiters (Plus any pick you wanna add).

Riley out here trying to prove he's the smartest man in the room, not build our best future. He's 72, probably retiring in 2 years max. Then what?

 

[Mantis Toboggan M.D.]

The fact that it has to be said on a nearly weekly basis that we get the laziest and shyttiest trolls in our thread and it seems to always apply to new posters each time is getting tiresome

Lol nah, it was Haslem. Haslem said that he refused to let guys tank and get depressed when it looked obvious that we weren't competing

 

[Sohh_lifted]

We will be blessed with a top 3 pick.
