Heat have made it to the ECF three times and the finals twice in the past four years, and a day after the season is over, the Miami heat heat disrespect sparks back up. The thunder over the heat? How can FOUR Western conference teams be title contenders and only one eastern conference team.
I agree with SA not having the Celtics there is blasphemy
Dame doesn't solve Miami's biggest problem: size
😂😂 8:31
LOL.. Dame to Heat.. with what assets?
Dame is retiring a trailblazer 😂
BO-Ring! 🥱😴😪💤 Is anyone else falling asleep?
Mad Dog’s list is absolutely horrible 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dame is 35 and can't defend anyone anymore. He's not the same Dame that can carry your team to 55 wins anymore. Please trade for him Miami, it would be wonderful to watch you add another aging guy on the decline to go along with Kevin Love.
Is Stephen a Smith bored of his own show at this point?
SAS is sick 😂😂😂
Lmfaooo so Warriors number 1 n got swept in the second round ??
Doggy on the stuff again
Karl anthony to Portland calling it now, that or Boston
Please stop with the bucks bruh so OVERRATED. As presently constructed there no2 and 3 is not good enough to win a chip . Couple years ago maybe but not now .
Mad dog is right on about the Celtics.
I loved Mad Dog's Top 5 list!
Preach Mad Dogg
That is the worst list I’ve ever seen
Depending on what the Lakers Miami and celtics look like they should be on a contender list keeping lebron team off the list because he's old is insane they went from if not the worst team to a solid team only losing to the Champs
Mad dog is annoying!
Clippers trade for PG looks bad every single day.
Lakers Fakers Lebron couldn't even get 1 win v the Nuggets
While Jimmy with much more lesser talent and with no hof or top75 nba players on his side, was still able to steal 1….
Heat run have been impressive and worthy to watch.
Aesthetically it wasnt that whoahh but come on Heat have over achieved..Heat have a very average team but so well coached….
Miami need a legit big man who can defend and not offensive liability and this will help adebayo especially in defensive end.
Jimmy bricksler
the knicks should trade randle, mitchlee and brunson for TREY YOUNG.
yea i said it.
and then trade barret and 1st round pick for DAME.
yea i double said it
Heat definitely need another scorer to take the pressure off Jimmy. And another big.
Denver, Kings, Bucks, GSW. The 5th is Memphis if Ja realizes he isn't a thug anymore, if not, than Philly or Celtics.
Reddick and Smith legit. Not sure about this other clown
SuperTeam! SuperTeam! What a fallacy.
Stephen A get some sleep man
Mad dog is a clown…
I wouldn't put the Celtics or Suns in there either!!!! and I am iffy on the Peilicans so I wouldn;t put them in their but if Zion is healthy they are on the list. I wouldn't put the 76er's on the list but if they got CP3 they would be in there and their chances of winning would of course be predicated all on if they were healthy in the playoffs. If CP3 goes to LA they are on my list.
Don’t need Dame need a dam big
What does Miami have to offer to even get Lillard they don't have very much
Madd dogg acting like Miami hasn’t made 2 finals in the last 4 years and 3 ECF
Dame is retiring a Blazer. This is just the media’s annual gaslighting of Dame into joining another team. Y’all also don’t have the assets. This is the team that made the finals against a dominant Nuggets and y’all are ready to blow up your core/chemistry by betting your hand on a superteam brand amidst a depth-driven era.
Doggy reallly had one Eastern Conference team as a title contender, and it's the one that didn't get through the 1st round, has a new Head Coach and has to handle the Lopez and Middleton situation! Thats hysterical!
I said it when the free agency frenzy occurred couple years ago, KD should have gone to the Heat.
KD #1 talent but #2 personality
Butler #2 talent but #1 personality
Heat don't need Dame. Heat need to go after Brook Lopez put him at the 5 and move Bam at the 4. If not Lopez than go after James Wiseman. Both can shoot 3's and rebound.
Dubs are finito for good thanks on big part to Draymon's punch…Wiseman bad draft choice…Klay's disappearance…and poor defense..
Celtics duo have no heart…Celtics wont win as contructed..
Nuggets/Bucks nba finals 2024
I missed the part where the Heat have the assets and/or cap space to trade for Dame. His contract is huge, what are they gonna do trade Bam, Robinson, another player, and a few picks for Dame? So they just wont have a Center anymore? The CBA is gonna make trades harder, how does that make this trade possible?
The Eastern conference better hope Dame doesn't go to Miami.
Ok people this show is where lies get legs and spread across all sports shows. The lie about Kyrie to the Lakers started here 2 years ago. For years Stephen A keeps trying to get Dame out of Portland to the Lakers, now it’s the Heat.
