Miami Heat Buyout Candidates: Russell Westbrook, Kevin Love, John Wall and More



After not making a move at the trade deadline, the Miami Heat still have open roster spots and could use them on a number of players on the buyout market. Should they explore signing Russell Westbrook, Kevin Love, John Wall, Nerlens Noel and others?

Wes Goldberg and David Ramil break down each of the options.

  1. I don't see how anyone could come to the conclusion that clips solved their pg issue. Including the team themselves lol. If I take off my bias shades, I still think kyle made more sense for them if he was cheaper and in better health but given those circumstances they looked elsewhere

  2. Thank God for Locked On Heat, they give me hope for the future (either buyout or next offseason )🙏🏼

  3. I agree 100% that the Heat shoukd stay clear of Westbrick! Imagine Russ in the Heat lineup compounding our shooting inefficiency tenfold! We need shooting and a big. Like what David said, I would go with Kevin Love! He would be the perfect 4 playing alongside Bam. KLove has shooting and he's not bad on rebound. He will be our answer to a Horford from Celtics.

  4. KO is also a good option like what Wes said. At least KO is already familiar with the Heat system. He can stretch the floor, pass the floor, high IQ and can get some rebounds.

  5. Feels like the front offices view of the win now move for this team is finding another high tier role player or star without giving up the core of Bam Jimmy and Tyler. Cleveland got DMitch while still keeping their core, Phoenix didnt have to give up their core 3 for KD. GSW keeps adding and got Wiggins without giving up their core. The front office just hasnt been able to get valuable assets to do this. Duncan couldve been, but isnt. Gabe, Max, and Caleb all have chances, but not extremely likely.

  6. none of these names are difference makers unfortunately. Pat's gonna have to uncover a gem at the Flea Market once again. Not stockpiling draft picks is a treacherous way to run a franchise in this era.

  7. did we not learn our lesson with Kelly O? His best asset is his durability, his worst asset is his durability. I remember seeing all our guys on the injury report, night in night out, except him chucking 3s with the Steph Curry green light

  8. LOL

    I THINK PEOPLE GOT WESTBROOK MESSED UP JUST BASED ON HOW SUFFERING THE LAKERS WAS

    PSA HE HATED THE LAKERS

    +

    WHAT HAS MIAMI HEAT BUILD THERE MOLD ON

    PLAYERS WITH SELF DOUBT PLAYERS WITH UNDER DOG MOTIVATION

    WESTBROOK HAS ALL THIS

    HELL PJ TUCKER DONT REALLY SHOOT BUT HE BRINGS ENERGY

    RUSSELL OR BEV CAN BRING THAT ENERGY ‼️

    SIGN THEM T-ROSS OR

    GOGA BITADZE (SLEEPER ) pick

    IDC

    I JUST HATE THE FACT

    LAKERS GAVE AWAY BEV X WESTBROOK FOR FREE

    THEY WASNT PLAYING BAD BUT IT GOES THAT WAY

    SOMETIMES

    BUT HEY PEOPLE DOWN ON US MAYBE THEYLL GET THEYRE STUFF TOGETHER

    AFTER YURTSZN COME BACK

    & BENCH WISE IT DOESNT LOOK BAD IF WE GET SOMETHING ON THE BUYOUT MARKET

    JUST IMAGINE IF THE HEAT

    GET

    WESTBROOK
    K LOVE
    T ROSS
    ILBAKA

    OFF THE BENCH OR STARTING MINS

    THAT WOULD LOOK CRAZY WHEN WE ALREADY HAVE SHOOTERS

    MAX
    HERRO
    KALID
    HAYWOOD
    DUCAN

  9. TRICK QUESTION

    HONEST ANSWER

    SAY IF WE DO GET WESTBROOK

    DO HE REALLY HAVE TO SHOOT ?

    HONEST ANSWER

    NO

    I THINK IF RILEY X SPO GET HIM

    HE DOESNT HAS TO SHOOT AS WEIRD AS IT IS

    HELL WHEN JIMMY BUTLER FIRST CAME HERE I THOUGHT

    HE WAS GONE SHOOT 60 + 80’s lol

    SPO GOT HIM IN THAT OFFENSE TOTALLY OPPOSITE

    PASS PASS PASS PASS THEN SHOOT

    PASS PASS PASS OPEN CORNER THEN SHOOT HERRO 3 X HAYWOOD 3

    Pass pass pass DUCK DOWN BAM RIM RUN SLAM

    OUR OFFENSE AINT REALLY SHOT HEAVY BECAUSE

    WE PASSING LOL

    JUST SAYING

    SPO X RILEY MAD SCIENTISTS 👩🏼‍🔬 WHEN IT COMES TO THE COACHING PHILOSOPHY

    SO THEY FIGURE IT OUT

  10. We need Russ! play him as PF. Yes he can't defend guards but can defend big man like Kawhii. Trust Spo, he will find a way to win.

  11. Give me Kevin love and go get Carmelo he can still shoot the rock and help our bench scoring with running mid post up and baseline cross screens. It will get our offense moving and won’t seem so stale. We need ppl that want to and can score the ball. Yes I know it 2023 lmao. Just a thought

  12. we will see Russell Westbrook is fit to the Miami i will come back in this page David Ramil

  13. AYY I THINK PEOPLE FORGET

    WESTBROOK
    J WALL
    CARMELO
    K LOVE
    PAT BEV

    ALL HAVE ONE THING IN COMMON NOBODY BOUGHT UP

    THEY BEEN PLAYING FOR BS TEAMS

    THE CLIPPERS LAKERS ROCKETS X CAVS BEEN CHEEKS LATELY SO THEY DONT CARE AT THIS POINT JUST HAPPY II SPIN THE WHEEL

    YET

    HOW YOU THINK OLA PLAYING AMAZING ON THE HEAT BECAUSE WE GAVE HIM A CHANCE

    TBH IF WE AINT GIVE OLA A CHANCE

    HE’LL STILL BE COOKIN NACHOS ON THE ROCKETS lol

    SO WE NEVER KNOW HELL FOR ALL WE KNOW

    ONE OF THESE PLAYERS COULD BE OUR

    MIKE MILLER X SHANE BATTIER X BIRDMAN PICK UPS

    LOL

    I TELL YOU ONE THING PEOPLE TALKING CRAZY UNTIL A TEAM LIKE THE BUCKS GET CARMELO OR WESTBROOK LOL THEN THE SAME PEOPLE GONE SAY DAMN WE SHOULDVE….

  14. At this point I'll take Westbrook, He'll give u more than lowry at this point…He can take pressure off of jimmy by attacking the rim
