Miami Heat Trade Rumors On Bam Adebayo

Miami Heat Trade Rumors On Bam Adebayo

This is a video I did not want to make, but there’s a report out there, so I felt like I had to address it. That report, the Golden State Warriors have potential interest in trading for Bamabio if the Heat big man ever became disgruntled and potentially wanted out of the 305. We’re going to talk about the trade idea that was thrown out there in the report. This is the heat report by Chad Sports. I am Nick Rolloff and well, my instant reaction to this is over my dead body. The truth is, I know there are people out there that aren’t the biggest fans of Bam and don’t believe he can lead this Heat organization to a championship due to his lack of aggressiveness on the offensive end. but he is still a top five defender in the NBA and he is on the current trajectory to be first or second in almost every career accolade as a member of the Miami Heat. He will either be first or second and the only person he would be trailing is Dwayne Wade. This is someone that should be a Heat lifer and I would be very very sad if he ultimately ever was not playing basketball for the Miami Heat. And I’m kind of annoyed that this report is even out there. Warriors already traded with us for Jimmy Butler. There ain’t trading for Bam at a bio. They have an unethical host here at Chat Sports named Tyler Smith. I think we could all agree on that. Spam FGSW down in the comment section right now. Here is the report from Brett Seagull and Clutch Point saying, “We have all heard about Golden State’s interest in Giannis Antinmpo dating back to the 2020 pandemic, and that will be a situation the team monitors very closely in Milwaukee. But Bam Abio is another all-star in the East who would be at the top of the Warriors list of potential trade targets if he was ever to request a trade from the Miami Heat. Well, my initial reaction obviously was over my dead body. My second reaction was Bam ain’t requesting no trade. Let’s be honest. It’s like Adabio just doesn’t feel like one of those guys. And I know they don’t feel like one of those dudes until it happens. I don’t think anyone ever thought Giannis would want to leave Milwaukee. And he still hasn’t. But you’re hearing a lot of murmurss about him potentially wanting to join the Knicks in the potential future and him inevitably leaving Milwaukee at some point. So, I guess anything could happen. I I just don’t feel like BAM wants to do that. He was ingrained by his teammate Dwayne Wade, by Udonis Hasslam to want to stick it through and uh through with this team through thick and thin to try to be arguably the best or second best Heat basketball player of all time. And if we’re going to be honest, if Bam ever brought a title to Miami in his career, like whether he’s the second or third option, he would be go he’d be going down as the second best heat player of all time. like he would surpass LeBron, he would surpass Jimmy, he would only be trailing Dwayne Wade. Coupe is shaking his head no at me in the camera. I mean, there is without a second of hesitation if Bam won a title. That his career accolades and longevity in Miami and just the one ring is better than the four years LeBron was here, three years LeBron was here, no, four years LeBron was here and bringing Miami two championships. It’s a simple fact. But all right, emotion aside, let’s actually have a conversation about it because the report does spark at least a little bit of a talking point. Is a BAM and a bio trade something that he should even consider without him requesting trade? Because I know some fans in the comments have said to trade Bam in the past. Well, let’s start by looking at his contract. This upcoming year is the final year of that five-year rookie scale contract extension. He signed what, four years ago, I guess at this point, making $37.1 million. The Heat signed him to another three-year extension prior to last season. So, that kicks in now at 49.6 mil next year, 53.6 in 2027, and then his final year on his current extension is in 28-29 at 57.6 million. But it is a player option and I mentioned it a little bit earlier in the show. He is going to go down as the best big man in Miami Heat history. That is a fact. If he stays here and he is going to go down potentially as a top three, top four, certainly top five heat basketball player of all time. Just look at his accolades through his career at this point at age 28. He’s already a three-time all-star. That probably will go up at least two, three more times the rest of his career. The AllNBA defense numbers will certainly go up as the career progresses. He is already a two-time Olympic gold med list. And if the USA wins gold in 2028, that means he will have his third because you can bet he will be on that United States team because he is the best United States big man that they currently have at their disposal right now. And he’ll certainly be on it due to his experience. But in Miami, he’s already fourth in career points, second in rebounds, and third in assists. He’s probably going to be one or two in assists when it’s all said and done. He will certainly be number one in rebounds and he’ll likely be in the top two, top three in points as well. This is a This is a Heat legend and he’s already 28 years old. And I get it. He didn’t have his best season a year ago. He did appear in 78 games, so he was very impressive in his availability. And a lot of fans were a little bit disappointed with his offensive output, especially with him being the focal point. you would have assumed if Jimmy Butler ever got traded. Well, he only averaged 18 points a game and he was very inefficient, especially in the first couple months of the year. He really struggled in October, November, and December. Turned it on after the All-Star break in February, but then had a tough postseason series against the Cavaliers, which was extremely disappointing because he was outplayed by Evan Mobley. There’s no sugar coating it. Bam was not good in that series and he was a large part and point in why Miami ultimately was embarrassed by Cleveland in that series. But here’s another aspect of it and I’m going to throw a little shot at producer Coupe here. It doesn’t make sense to trade your best player anytime, especially in his prime if they do not request a trade. Why is that a little shot at Coupe? Most of you know he’s a Mavericks fan and the Mavericks did that with Luca Donich. So there is precedent of it happening. It just isn’t very good precedent. Good organizations do not do that. Now trade requests, okay, now you have to have a conversation how you let it get to that point and if you want to honor the trade request, but from out of the blue just dealing him away. Yeah, good organizations do not do that. And you also have to think about this aspect as well. It might scare superstars away from wanting to join that organization in the future. I know this is a large point in the Luca Dona talks as well. It’s like what star would want to go to Dallas if they could be traded at any point from that current regime. If Luca Don got traded, you sure as hell can be traded. So, it’s like would a superstar free agent want to sign there or request a trade there? I don’t know. We’ll see how Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving handle the remaining years of their contract and we see how Cooper Flag handles it after being drafted there number one overall.

All right, so there was a trade idea floated out on the interweb and then adopted by our own scumbag Warriors host Tyler Smith. And I wanted to show it just to show you how bad this trade is. But the idea that was thrown out there was John the Gaminga, Moses Moody, Buddy Heield, two firstrounders unprotected in 2028 and 2030, I think it was, and then one first round pick swap for Bam and Pel Larson. That trade is absolutely horrendous. Like, I’m not kidding. It might be one of the worst trade ideas I have ever seen. Jonathan Kaminga is someone the Warriors didn’t even want to commit long term to. Moses Moody stinks and Buddy Heield is what 30 plus years a old now and not an impactful player. Like you’re just getting first round picks at that point and I wouldn’t trade Bam for two first round picks if I had a gun pointed at me. I would just say you know what shoot me. You could end it because I’m not doing it. Like the only possible way I would even contemplate a bam at a bio trade is if I got offered three unprotected first round picks and I would have to get a young star. That is how I feel Bam’s value is across the NBA. Look, I’m talking three unprotecteds and a building block of the future. So, like if you honestly wanted to throw out a trade idea, I would contemplate San Antonio Spurs called me out and said, “You know what? I want to create a duo of Bam and Victor Wanyama in the front court in San Antonio.” It would pain me to send me there, but I was like, “You know what? You send me Dylan Harper in three first round picks. I’ll start to think about it.” Like, that’s the type of package I’m talking about here. A potential building block, a top three pick type of guy in three unprotecteds to help jumpstart that rebuild. Moral of the story, trade ain’t happening with the Golden State Warriors or really anyone. Like, it just isn’t going to happen. And I know some fans may want it to happen. The majority of fans don’t want it to happen. So, I feel pretty good about where we are. And I don’t think Heat fans, if you’re in my seat of not wanting a trade to happen, have anything to worry about. But let’s say you would you consider trading B at a bio in general whether it’s a Warriors type package or the package that I talked about with Harper three first round picks why yes or N for no I also think you have to take into consideration who’s running this basketball team that is Pat Riley and for as annoying as it has been with Riley not pushing the chips to the table to go all in and get a star in the big three well big in the era of Jimmy and Bam, I should say. You think he’s really going to trade away Bam at a bio for like nothing? Like, no. Like, Bam would have to request a trade. Bam is also viewed as the pillar and captain, the franchise player. Pat Riley ain’t going to trade that, man. And like a lot of people, me included, talk about a Giannis trade this off season if he requested a trade out of Milwaukee. Well, Barry Jackson randomly dropped a report today which came out of nowhere. Um, and when I say today, I meant earlier in the week as we’re filming this on Tuesday and going out on Friday. But, um, Giannis, if he had asked out, the Heat were prepared to make an offer that didn’t include Bam at a bio. According to a source, unlikely any such offer would have even been seriously considered by the Milwaukee Bucks. Like, the point I’m trying to show in that quote is that Bam is the guy. He is the leader. He is the face of the franchise. He is the player you build around. He is the player that can recruit other stars to Miami in free agency potentially or by a trade request because people see how he’s treated and see how the Heat fans love him and how he is such a player that people want to play alongside with. Kevin Durant wanted to play with him. Damen Lillard wanted to play with him. Kevin Durant or said KDA Anthony Edwards would want to play with him. This is a known fact like Bam is a guy a lot of people want to play with. But I also think that quote tells you that a trade package for Giannis may have included wear hero Hakez or hero wear Yoic and multiple first round picks. But the point I’m trying to make is on Bamabio. All right, that’ll do it for today’s show.
