You bumbs get a life
Everyone on the show is being petty. Tyler Herro can't guard anyone, no one wants him. I'm glad Dame didn't get to dictate where he was going to go. Mike Ryan stop crying. What a baby.
Mike Ryan is the fan that rather win the off-season than actual games.
And that where Dan has a blind spot due to his adoration to Riley: Riley offered very little as he thought that due the relationship between GM and Dame, Kronin would trade Dame to Miami. So he tried to get him with a minimum offer. What he did not predict was that the GM was only caring for his own job, couldn't care less about Dame. Another whale lost by Riley…
Riley wants Miami to be the Lakers of the east. And who would give up dame time for tyler hero?
These guys are mouth pieces
Yes now Heat fans feel like how Laker fans felt when Stern blocked the CP3 Trade….Suck It
This Miami heat team will not make it to the playoffs with this team, everyone in the east has got better besides the heat, this team has miss out on so big names players.
"Herro and two firsts"
We didn’t get the whale but we have a very deep team with legit talent, a healthy Tyler, more experienced bam and the ultimate alpha in jimmy….a small or two can get us where we need to be
Dan has a horrible perspective on this!! Dame WON! The Blazers WON! The Heat LOST! Period Stop
Dame said miami to take out miami out the picture.
Tired of the narrative of “this has never happened before” Paul George didn’t get to go to LA… the only place on his list. And he was plenty of a superstar then. Every time Kyrie has asked to be traded he never gets to go the tops of his lists. Some GMs don’t play the players run everything card and some do. Been that way for a while. Players can almost always force their way out, but that’s where the power has always stopped.
Miami leaking like crazy at the beginning trying to force the trade was okay 😂😂😂
I agree with Dan & u don’t believe TB were every interesting in trading with the Heat when it come to either Dame or Dru. 🤷🏿♂️
If Embiid ends up in Miami that means you have to give up Bam or you have worse spacing than Embiid and Ben Simmons
Miami did not blow up the Celtics core, the Celtics core is Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum. Smart was a crucial piece yes but he had some glaring flaws and the Celtics could NEVER rely on Robert Williams whose always injured.
Tapioca pudding funny
It’s not petty at all. Portland got more value then they would of gotten from Miami and they’re not done yet (can trade Brogdon and/or Williams. Cronin played it brilliantly. Most objective non Heat fans agree this and thought Heat fans were delusional all summer. Clearly no wants Herro on his contract or they would of gotten involved in a Dame trade. Miami found no one to take him.
Dame also had ZERO leverage as 33 year old small guard with 4 years 216 million left on deal!
Dan is clueless. Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, Kyrie Irving, Donovan Mitchell ALL got traded to places that wasn’t close to their first choice from 2017-2022 before this Dame trade demand! I assure you Minnesota wasn’t Rudy Gobert’s first choice either! This notion it’s diff with Dame is not even close to true.
KD got to go to Suns bc Suns sent back two legit players + a ton of draft picks (and KD is > Dame).
PS Dame doing damage control acting like he wanted to stay in Portland if not Miami. He’s tying to save face and play it both ways.
We don't need Dame. We got Playoff Jimmy and a Hero.
🤔 I find it hilarious—but also a touching bit of local pride—that Heat fans are so convinced Miami weather/nightlife is the card that trumps all competition for nba superstars. Damian Lillard spent over a decade in OREGON; he was a college star in UTAH. If bikini weather in January was so high up his list of lifestyle needs, wouldn’t he have asked out ages ago? Do some research on your trade targets, Sleepy Pat! Have you never seen this man in street clothes? Dame has the deepest, dopest knitwear bag in the league—total waste for South Beach, but there’s no better place to rock all those $5,000 sweaters than Milwaukee.
Did Dame ever even mention Miami the city in his motivations for going to the Heat? Obviously, the draw for Dame was Spo, Bam, and Jimmy—and fact his trade request coincided with watching them scrap + claw to the finals, only to get smashed for lack of a lethal lead guard exactly like him. He saw that team as a perfect basketball fit, whether in Miami or Manitoba. Portland knew that once the hard feelings and the tunnel vision faded, Dame would obviously realize Giannis/Milwaukee fit him even better. Total arrogance from Riley to think time was on his side and Cronin would have to keep negotiating after Heat’s low-ball first offer.
Didn't Portland asked for Bam or Butler? I assume they asked jrue and they got him…if bucks laughed atvthat Portland wouldn't engage any talks afterwards
Someone should slap Mike in the face for the disrespect! Trust in Pat!
I don’t know how to tell Heat fans the package was bad, and they still have returns to get for Malcolm Brogdon.
Haven't seen it in the NBA for a while, but if a player fails their Physical after a trade is made does the player or players that failed the Physical go back to the team they were getting traded from? (Ala Robert Williams & Malcolm Brogdon for Jrue Holiday). Jrue Holiday would go back to the Blazers if Robert & Malcolm fail their physical's? That would hella suck if Jrue gets sent back to Portland after being excited to be in Boston.
GM didn’t do Dame dirty. Portland GM did a good job for Dame and the city of Portland. He could have sent Dame to OKC. Only Miami is salty!
I'm glad to see yall in the comments RIP Dan. Cause he got caught on his bullshit and is trying to double down.
Also the more Mike Ryan started talking the less I watched the show
Oh please . Stop trying to spin it. They ain’t have the right things to offer and that’s pretty much it.
