[Beck] “Again, in doing the Giannis story and talking to people around the league, Miami was suggested to me as a place Giannis would really love to land if it’s not New York.”

  1. i don’t buy it. need a report that he’s willing to take a discount to come to miami, then i’ll believe it

  2. We do have that banging Greek food truck that shows up on random places…

  3. Giannis to Miami has been mentioned by: Sam Amick, Bill Simmons, Jake Fischer, Brett Siegel, Kirk Goldsberry, and now Howard Beck.

    All these dudes are pretty plugged into the league.

    When there’s smoke….

  4. Yeah I’m sure Giannis would be open to Miami (who wouldn’t?) but that’s not gonna happen.

  5. In my view, our package for Giannis is 10x better than NY, we have young players and picks that can be offered, while NY would be giving pretty bad picks and older players that don’t help a rebuild.

    However. If a west team wants Giannis and bucks want best return. Then we get destroyed by value

  6. It’s always “[star player] would love to be in Miami if he doesn’t land in [big market]”, then the Heat has nothing to offer but a bag of chips and a can of soda, [star player] ends up in a team that wasn’t even mentioned.

    I will entertain these stories when the Heat has actual assets to put on the table.

    *would love to be proved wrong tho.

  7. Giannis could come out publicly and say “Miami ONLY” and it still wouldn’t matter

    We all know how that went for Dame

  8. What Beck said about the Heat’s star chasing and aggression gives the game away. Someone is throwing out chum with the Heat name in order to make the market seem frothier. “Oh no, we better offer some good stuff or else Pat’s going to swoop in and we’re finished!”

  9. Just to remind that we fans do not have any control on personnel decisions of the team. So whether or not someone wants Giannis here does not matter in the grand scheme of things.

  10. I don’t know about you but the “star player wants to play for the Heat” got old since the last KD saga. It won’t happen.
