Will the Miami Heat be patient enough to wait for Damian Lillard, who will reportedly give the Portland Trail Blazers time to improve the roster in free agency, or will they move on to Plan B? Plus, would the Heat really waive and stretch Kyle Lowry?
Wes Goldberg and David Ramil are joined by Heavy.com NBA Insider Sean Deveney to explore the Heat’s options in free agency, where Gabe Vincent and Max Strus can land other than Miami and other trade candidates.

The HEAT need to get out of their own way. Running it back was a dumb strategy after year 2
Dame playing games move on
If the heat waive Kyle Lowry. That move will go right up there, with them using a pic, to get rid of deadmon.
Terrible asset Management.
Our number one problem is always trying to get a star splash…its time to finish building the TeAm!!
Forget Dame Drama !! Kyrie is available.
Lets go Heat 🔥
No good veteran player is going to Portland we all know it
We going after Kyrie💪🏿 🪶🏹
If Damian doesn’t want to leave so be it it’s his decision he has to live with this nobody else
If they wait half a season more you basically just killed another one of his years.
Dame should look at Harden, Lowry, Westbrook, DWade, etc… cautionary tales…. You’ll never be loved like you are with your home team & your new team/city will blame you and dispose of you once you show any decline.
Dame has been so loyal to Portland… he should stay in Portland & remain a hero. If he comes to Miami & they don’t win a championship because they are too small, too old, to thin Dame will be the bad guy.
Also, if Portland is remotely good and fun to watch… like OKC or the Grizzles, Dame will continue to be adored in Portland.
Trading Lowry to San Antonio would make sense. They have the cap space and I think Doug McDermott would be a solid option to replace strus if we lose him and it will shed over 10 million in cap space.
Ok time to pivot. Enough of Dame drama. 6 months, Dame is a BETA, and Portland are sharks. Let them drown.
I'm so tired listening about Dame! In the end the heat got nothing again because of that Dame thing! Donavan Mitchell and Zack Lavine are already available for a trade!
They are dumb if they sacrifice tgere young talent for Dame. I love Dame as a player but it’s not worth losing our young talent. Look how far we went with what we had and now throw in a healthy Hero, a healthy young Jovic and there draft pick Jsimie Jacquez Jr who is a stud and a steal at 18
I can't say I'm all that comfortable with waiting for Damian to ask for a trade (which isn't even guaranteed to happen) while they sit on the sidelines and the rest of the league makes moves. What would be left if Damian ends up staying in Portland? Wish he'd decide one way or the other and we can get on with it already
A relationship and these sports situations are 100% different. Plus… Hell no. Heat aint waiting till no dang regular season for dame. Don't bother at that point.
Keep Gabe n Lowry and if you gotta let Martin go or Robinson to make tbe money work with tbe other guys snd a couple of backup bigs that’s the way to go. Jovic is long and will be a great player. We will regret losing him if we deal him and I love Jaimie n Hero together on tbe floor with Jimmy and Bam with our two PG’s
Look at what Jokic turned into and than go back to tgst scouting report and what we saw from a small sample from Jovic. He’s a stud and future great player
I've been saying it since may. We should be trading Tyler and and Victor for Dame and nurkic by flipping lowery back to toronto with the 18th pick for van vleet and the back up pg he's been mentoring and forward them to portland.
toronto has to resign van vleet or lose him. they want to rebuild so this gets them off salary with a pick and we get dame and a good situational big. portland gets Herro and a dd's Dame who won't threaten scoot.
Just keep lowry. Dont trade lowry with a pick or waive with the 3 year. I dont care about some added trash that much. Its non trash but are you getting that? Just thug it out with lowry at this point.
We DONT have to be held hostage by Dame while every team is making deals left and right. He's playing us and wasting our time.
Damian is not for the Miami heat !!!
Waive Kyle lowry
I’m with many Heat fans about not waiting for Portland and Dame to come to an agreement, there are other players available like Zach Lavine and Kyrie Irving, personally I like Zach Lavine.
