[Jackson] Per source, Heat has spoken to Cleveland and a third team about sign and trade involving Strus, with Strus going to Cavs in this scenario. Heat would get back small assets (not a player, in permutation discussed).

To keep the MLE and get strus would be incredible.
He’s a decent option. But I want more height. Not undersized PG – SF.
Would this mean LeVert doesn’t return?
if we do a sign and trade would we still have the MLE?
Maybe it’s just recency bias, but I’m here for it. That dude was electric in the playoffs
I have wanted Strus bad man. Volume 3pt shooter (VERY high volume), better defender than given credit for, good passer when teams crash him coming off screens, comes from an organizational culture we are trying to mimick, and has lots of playoff experience now.
Serious question…what does Max Strus provide that Cedi doesn’t?
Make it rain seconds on Miami
If we get Strus. Then we still got a chance of keeping LeVert? I’ll be ok with the FA thereafter.
I like Stus a little. But I don’t trust their UDFA’s outside of their system. I wouldn’t give him much money.
Would LOVE to get Strus, he might even be our starting SF
* 6’6
* 27.2 yrs old
* 28 mpg on finals team, splits time btwn SG/SF but leans SF
* 56% on 2’s, 35% on 3’s (41.9% last year), 87% from FT, 53% eFG
* Catch and shoot guy (86% of shots made were assisted, 95% of 3’s)
* Made **45% of corner 3’s**
There’s our wing shooter, I’d imagine Cedi is one of the guys going back (similar positions/roles)
Finally getting the Heat back for Lebron
What about Cedi and Rubio to the spurs, Struss to Cleveland and seconds to Miami?
sign me the F up, he’s a perfect fit for us
Want this to go through so badly
Playoff experience + much needed 3 point shooting sounds great to me. Also part of me hopes that this would be good for Cedi. Mentality being, if we boil down Strus to a “better” Cedi (for simplicities sake, not trying to compare the two), Cedi would make an amazing backup for Max as the two fill very similar roles
Fucking IDEAL
