ESPN’s Brian Windhorst on Heat trade rumors:
“The Miami Heat have been overstated as a potential [Ja] destination, sources said. The Heat have been laser focused on avoiding taking on money for the 2027-28 offseason…It’s highly unlikely the Heat would deviate from that plan to go after Morant, sources said.”

Do the Heat need to trade for Ja Morant? Type ‘Y’ for Yes or ‘N’ for No
Always trying to have cap space, never using the draft for cheap talent.
If you’re about winning, what’s so sacrilegious about tanking versus holding back for cap space? The Heat are bona fide idiots enabled by unjust admiration around the league.
EVERYONE is doing it better than us.
Miami heat is not going to sign anybody that's Miami-Heat's culture,cheap organization they are always looking for trashed players.
If you are a Heat player and you hear that they are focused on 27-28…just know your next two years are a waste. Because they won't develop young players and they're not going to extend veterans for what they deserve. Everyone needs to get out. They'll only pay Bam at this point.
This front office is only focused on hopes and dreams like they have been the last 5 years.
The Heat do not possess the ability to make big trades. Maybe in the off-season we make a couple moves but we stay with the core. We also make sure that if you have a high ceiling, we won't give you playing time. Miami only cares for undrafted players and then trade them if they become too good. Miami, as a whole, has the worst front offices. Dolphins, Heat, and Marlins. Garbage organizations.
I think the high reward is worth the risk but I would only do deal number two. I want to get rid of Jovic he's way overrated and inconsistent.
If you’re using any of those trade packages, you better be trading Herro and Powell for more complementary stuff right behind it.
If we have Herro, Ja, and Powell, you know Spo is starting them all and we’re gonna get shredded on defense. You’re lucky if you can get away with having one of them on your roster against a team like OKC.
We build teams like fuckin Phoenix. Name recognition before fit. Hell, Mat Ishbia is learning the modern NBA quicker than we are.
Y
See what happen in the Boston game the heat didn’t have a player that can make a play besides Norma that why we need ja and he’s playing like that cuz he doesn’t wanna be there why will he risk his body or play with that team trade herro rozier and jovic or kj and see how it goes then
Smh 😮
They ain’t doing s*** and I’m tired man
One big issue. SPOELSTRA. Dude literally worshiped praised Kasper the Badass Ghost despite having Dru used over him. But dude almost straight up glorified him. And specifically speaking, is the FO working with what the coach wants on this team? What's to say Spo would veto this should it involve the young bloods we have in Jover, Pelle and Kasper? Don't get me wrong. But despite his mishaps, Pat ain't Nico.
Miami like yt players, u can't give Ja to Miami for free 😂😂
Our “max” player got outplayed by Simon’s haha
Aka we're going to miss out on Ja AND Giannis, and we're gonna run it back AGAIN next year. Got it 👍🏾
Trading for Ja Morant makes no sense. He doesn’t even fit the offensive scheme Miami play. Just go get Giannis ffs
We should get MPJ
✅Heat aren't extending Herro. Trade Herro for Morant. Let's make Heat basketball exciting. This Heat team is so boring.
Ja doesn’t have the mindset to play in Miami. If he can’t handle distractions in Memphis he’s definitely not built for Miami
Trade everyone except ware and kas and larson for picks. Tank and rebuild around ware. All in or rebuild and we dont have nearly enough to go all in. So rebuild instead of overpaying mediocrity.
My question is if Spo can't handle K. Ware's immaturity as a young player still trying to find his footing, which I completely hold Spo accountable because of his lack of patience. Then why in the hell would they bring in Ja Morant and deal with his immaturity, especially when we know Ja likes to party. Miami is probably the worst place for him to go to if it's totally for basketball purposes because Ja will most likely have issues off the court because of the temptation that the city of Miami will offer him. Spo needs to allow Ware to play through his immaturity the same way he allows Bam to do so. Regardless of Ware's hiccups, the Heat win more whenever he's in the starting lineup and plays more. This kid has hidden a lot of Bams bad play this season and Spo should be ashamed of himself for calling him out after games and not doing the same with his star players such as Bam. Spo is the reason why Miami are going through these rough patches lately and he's blaming a lot of it on Ware which is not right. He's a young player who plays hard. He's going to make mistakes as he learns the NBA game. Hell the Celtics Quetto makes a lot of mistakes but you don't see their coach just giving up on him by benching him for an entire second half. Their coach realize that Quetto is young and will make mistakes but his talent outweighs his mistakes, which I believe the same goes for Ware.
Pat Riley thinks it’s 2006 where he can throw out shit packages for superstars when everyone else is jumping on them throwing up picks and we’re sitting here trying to wait for these players to hit the market on a chance pat literally is so cheap I get it but u can’t be cheap when the easy is weak
