Trade For Dorian Finney-Smith NOW! Heat Lose To Clippers | Miami Heat Trade Rumors
He Dro a Sunday night game against the Los Angeles Clippers and if one thing is clear that he just don’t have enough to compete with the top teams in the NBA right now obviously they beat the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday that ended that seven game losing streak and then
They followed up with a win against the Wizards on Friday but when they got matched up against the elite team that the Los Angeles Clippers are they just didn’t really stand a chance I have a lot of thoughts from this game and a potential trade Target as we approach
Thursday’s NBA trade deadline I am Nick Roff of the heat report make sure you subscribe to the channel because there is just about five or six days away from that deadline so lock Us in so you are up to date on all Miami Heat trade rumors all right the heat failed the
Eclips 100 points shocker against a good defensive team now I will say this for today’s game that he’d actually played very well defensively only holding the Clippers who have been one of the best teams the NBA over the M past month and a half in best offensive teams to only
103 points the problem is you only scored 95 yes I know Tyler herro did not play due to migraines that he apparently had just before the game so that’s obviously going to hurt your offense but I mean there was poor shooting overall and you can credit that a lot to the
Clippers defense having Paul George having Qui loner Terrence man they absolutely got in your grill and Qui loner took over that third quarter he was just absolutely dominant on both ends of the floor your leading scorer tonight was Jimmy Butler with 21 points meaningless 21 if you will but you’re
Starting back court of Rosier and Josh Richardson combine the shoot two of 13 from Beyond The Arc that is not going to get the job done and yes you shot eight of 29 from three as a team and your two best Shooters are Tyler herro and Duncan
Robinson they both didn’t play so I know it’s not going to be anything perfect for Miami Miami but it is at least concerning at the lack of three-point shooting and this offense tonight looked a lot like the offense that occurred over the seven game losing streak where
You failed to put up 100 points and five out of seven of those games so there is a little bit of concern in my opinion of where you have to go and find a trade um Target potentially to fix this team literally they cut to Pat Riley during
The game and he was taking a nap during the game it was absolutely sickening to watch him sleeping while watching the Miami Heat it was absolutely ridiculous he’s got to wake up and make a move but the the problem is is that I don’t know what move is really out there to
Make you’re really banking on Rosier and hero carrying the load offensively when you talk about getting to the mid-range getting into the three-point taking people off the dribble yet Tyler hasn’t shown the ability to do that this season and Rosier can’t make a three he was shooting 25% from Beyond the r coming
Into the this game and he put up a stinker of 0 for five where all five shots had me ve very meaningful implications a couple down the stretch in that fourth quarter as he were trying to make a comeback and he just couldn’t get him to fall his shot outside of 15
Feet and in just has not been there and it’s really concerning this was one of his better offensive games today if you take away the three-point Mark I thought he did a good job in the pick and roll with adabo on pocket passes and on the mid-range shots but he just can’t find
His stroke from deep and you’re going to really need Rosier to space the floor as you continue to progress here and try to win games to avoid the play in and having to play either Milwaukee or Boston in all likelihood in the first round of the playoffs if you’re like me
And believe the heat do need to make a move to fortify this roster and upgrade it let me know type why if you think the heat need to make a trade type Ben if you think they’re going to just stand Pat and ride with the roster they have I
Will say this I do think they stand pet I don’t know another move out there they’re going to make outside of the buyout Market it really does feel like they’re just going to try to get things rolling and not give away any future assets right now to fix this potential
Mess of a roster if there was a move out there to be made though I like Dorian finny Smith from Brooklyn now there is reports out there from the New York Post that they have declined two first round picks that a team offered for DF s uh if
That’s the case you can rule him out of coming to the 305 because the heat are not going to offer anything close to two second or two first round picks and if they aren’t accepting it then that’s not the case but if you just add Dorian finy
Smith to his roster and potentially like I think Haywood played a fine game but if you just replaced Haywood heith with Dorian finny Smith could you not tell me this team would not be infinity times better you have a better Defender who by the way if you you remember watching the
Doryan finy Smith episode just a week ago I outlined how well he played defensively against the Los Angeles Clippers only allowed nine points when he was the nearest defender on three of 13 shooting and against kawh leard and Paul George they combine to shoot one of nine so he is an elite perimeter
Defender that can guard two through five and I say five and I do truly do mean that CU in spot minutes he can guard a center because he is so physically strong and can really disrupt big men inside when they’re trying to back them down and that little nudge as
They’re bringing the ball up can really disrupt their Rhythm inside the paint Dorian FY Smith brings that he does a lot of the things PJ Tucker did back in the day for Miami and when he was in his Heyday playing Center at 66 that’s why I
Like Dorian finny Smith and he’s a good three-point shooter shooting 38% from the season and he had a rough January he was shooting better than 40 % in the NBA season when you look at from Beyond The Arc before that rough month of January I don’t know what the heat could possibly
Offer for Dorian finny Smith but he is a perfect perfect addition the Clippers are an absolute nightmare matchup for the Miami Heat because of their Elite two-way wings and then you have James Harden doing his little Dancy dance at the arc step back threes plus a foul
Like you could not stop him either and you couldn’t stop Qui Leonard either in the mid-range you got lucky and Paul George had a rough night from the field but he still hits some dagger shots because you couldn’t really get up in his Gill and contest them another team
That has that same similar play style in Elite wings oh yeah the Boston Celtics your biggest rival in the NBA who you’ve matched up in the Eastern Conference Finals with three of the last four seasons I I just don’t know if this team is going to be able to compete with the
Elite teams in the Eastern Conference and then if they somehow made it to the NBA finals for the third time in five years if they had to match up with a Denver team again or this Clippers team I just don’t know how Miami could think they have a championship winning roster
Even if Jimmy Butler turns into Michael Jordan 2.0 for the third time in five years when the postseason comes around you’re just not getting enough from your other guys like nobody loves haime hakz Jr more than me but I think we have to be critical of the young Rook I don’t
Know if it’s the grin injury still hindering him if it’s the rookie wall because that does happen for guys that come in the league at a young age coming out of the college but he was bad tonight man three of 11 from the field three turnovers he was just forcing
Things at time going at qu Leonard at Paul George I love the confidence of The Rook but you got to understand you just aren’t there with your offensive skill set to take those guys off the dribble and struggled with his finishing too he had some decent looks when he did
Take those guys off the dribble I don’t know if kawh and PG were in his sight and he just was thinking about their contest more than the shot which caused him to overthink and Miss but he just could not finish tonight and if he’s not able to hit his shots from eight feet
And in to the basket well he’s not the best jump shooter he did knock down a three one for three for the game tonight but haime just needed to like take a deep breath almost and stop forcing things that that’s kind of how I feel
With his game right now but I I just think when you watch this game there is one thing that comes abundantly clear and that this roster cannot compete with the Celtics the nuggets the Clippers in the NBA where they ultimately have to compete with those teams to win an NBA
Title could they beat a team like Milwaukee in a seven game series I still think they can because I’m not sold on that team and I’m not sold on Doc Rivers getting them over the hump either after they fired Adrien Griffin so I’m not worried about Milwaukee the teams that I
Am concerned about are those teams that I mentioned that are at top of this league right now I just don’t know if you can compete with them with this current roster but adding a two-way player that can give you a three for seven a three for six night from Beyond
The Arc but also play lock down defense on an opposing play or team’s best Wing or even switch onto a guard in a exposer scheme like I just imagine and I can just dream of a Dorian finny Smith Jimmy Butler bam atab bio front Court where they work defensively hand inand just
Switching everything because you can switch all three of those guys and instead of this drop coverage that Eric spola has tried to implement more and more of this season well you can go back to that switching defense which helped you get to the NBA finals two of the
Last four seasons do I think they trade for Dorian finny Smith no but this is just my rant coming on here believing that that could be a move to help push this roster in a better Direction because they need more offense and they need more defense and Dorian finny Smith
Will provide more than what Haywood High Smith has been able to give you he’s going to give you more defense than Caleb Martin he’ll give you more offense than haime hakz Jr it is what you need to do will Pat riy make that move who the hell knows but I’ll tell you one
Thing we will have you covered on the buyout Market the trade deadline everything leading up to that February 8 3 p.m. eastern time deadline so hit that sub button stay locked in with the heat report I’m Nick rolloff and I’ll see you tomorrow with another video

Should the Miami Heat trade for Dorian Finney-Smith? Type 'Y' for Yes or 'N' for No
We’re now 2-1 in the duncan concussion era and 0-1 in the herro migraine era. If my heat fan logic serves me right, Duncan needs to go and tyler is untouchable
We need like Gabe and Max type of players who can defend and shoot 3
Rather than DFS , I think the heat should consider moving Caleb for Obi Toppin
1. Hes on the same contract as caleb this year but with no player option so the heat have flexibility with what they do afterwards
2. The pacers may be able to pay him more, they need perimeter defense and the Obi’s PF spot is now taken by Siakam
3. The Heat now get a 6’9 PF that applies way more rim pressure, plays off ball and is shooting 54% from the field and 39% from 3 (vs. Caleb’s 44% and 37%)
4. I also trust Obi’s injury record over Caleb’s.
"promosm"
Yes
This .Miami Heat is a "JOKE"… Every game is something different. If it is not, Tyler is Jimmy. If it is not, Jimmy is Duncan , and if it is not, Duncan is Bam.. and on and on and, on…
WHAT A CIRCUS!!!!!!
N. Laurie Markennan. get it done. size & scoring. anything less means no ECF this year
riley screwed up. i screamed for ALL STAR James Harden. we could have had him CHEAP
JJJ overrated
I think heat should trade OBI TOPIN from Atlanta for HAYWOOD HIGHSMITH and NIKOLI JOVIC 🔥
And trade CALEB MARTIN and ORLANDO ROBINSON plus 2 picks for DORIAN PENNY SMITH and NIC CLAXTON now before they gone! 🔥
The heat need to upgrade the roster now before its too late! 🔥
Daniel Gafford or Finney Smith. If not caruso and drummond from the bulls
They should get 3&D sf and PF, trade everyone except rozier jimmy bam and duncan
Tbh I would be cool if we just finish 6th. Whoever the 3 seed ends up being I’m pretty confident we can beat them in a 7 game series.
Nic Claxton & Murray would be a better option for trade
Bam is a fringe third wheel
Inconsistent as FUCK
We are ducked
Heat screwing around. They need to give you something to talk about. Right now I'm folding up my jerseys and tees until my hometeam earns my support.
Heat don't have the assets to get what Heat fans think is the solution. Buyout market is the likely approach by the Heat.
JJJ IS Beyond cooked every game he played 25 minutes a night just average 4.0pts he never show up against team above 500 he can’t guard or score teams score 12 buckets a night on him
We need a power forward not a 3.
Seems like the same Heat team as last year… A play in team fhat isn't great only to have Jimmy Butler become a SuperHero and other luck in playoffs to win games they shouldn't have. Total Mid
We need scorer not roleplayer
A player who can score 30 points a game
Tyus Jones and Daniel Gafford are who we should target
Was a close game some bs calls by refs. We had some chances to turn it around but missed shots. We didnt have Herro or Robinson.
The Heat should target Bruce Brown he can be are Gabe Vincent replacement
That's why Riley must retire,sleeping while the game is going on,RETIRE RILEY,you are no longer any good to this team.
No moves will help us this season. The Heat should tank, and trade Butler or Herro in the offseason and start over.
Man I’m starting to think you don’t know anything about hoops…
