    Sounds just awful. Does this mean we won't get the Miami 2021 pick if we miss out on the top 4 pick? Can we still tank to the top of the 2021 draft?

    PS: CH44 was right again about the Lowry holdup.

    There was no way we were getting Herro for an expiring Oladipo lol.

    2022 draft swap, hope something comes from it. Olynyk a decent big body and Bradley a solid vet.

    You can’t always say with room to grow - he’s looked horrible this season when he had to start - He went off in the bubble but it’s factors that could play into that

    The Raptors got more for freaking Norman Powell, stop it we could have gotten way more.

    Stone should have moved him a while ago. He gambled and got his bricks kicked. I don't like it at all.

    The only possible benefit I see in this trade is the possibility that the swap allows the Rockets to swap Miami for Brooklyn's pick in the 2022 draft. Otherwise this is worse than shuffling the deckchairs on this titantic.

    You don't write off a guy who's 20 and has shown flashes. He's never going to be a franchise guy but could be a high end role player of value.

    Powell isn't an expiring contract. Anyone thinking we were getting Herro for Oladipo were delusional.

    It was either close to garbage or nothing at all.

    Sounds like Houston had no choice - agent prob told teams he was signing with Miami in the offseason.

    We can find that anywhere - you basically saying he’s a younger Eric Gordon (which he’s not even that)

    Nah, these guys won't get in the way of the tank.

    But say you have Cunningham they aren't complete scrubs.

    Nah man then why'd they release the report about how they are happy with the offers they are getting?

    You mean to tell me they got all these offers of young talent and picks and they thought making Miami better for a poopoo platter is the best? We dont even get the pick outright its just a swap. This is Cp3 level trade bad imo.

    No herro, no DR...not even Precious. 30 yr old Bradley and Olynk just trash 1 and 2.

    I really don't know what people expected for an expiring contract of a player that was playing TERRIBLY and was oft-hurt and coming off a serious injury...

    Dipo's value was at an all time low for him and it was either get something or get nothing.

    They are expiring deals they wont be here when we get Cunninham.

    If we dont get Cunningham or a top 4 pick though our pick will be massively worse cuz they just made Miami much better.

    The problem was trading for Oladipo instead of Lavert.
