Can the Miami Heat Realistically Get Kevin Durant This Summer? | Locked On Heat

1. Ethan Skolnick who carries water for the Front Office, polled the other long-time beat reporters and said none of them believe Riley was going to give Jimmy the extension even if he played all the games. I think when Jimmy realized this as well, that's when he finally blew up.

2. Heat Culture left when UD and Jimmy left. The heat Roster is soft as tissue paper….But I'm watching Jimmy playing with another killer and they look good. Something i seen with Jimmy and Derrick Rose before the injury…Bam could've been that if he wasn't friends with EVERYONE. Reason why Jimmy asked for Dame. Give me a killer and i can take care of everything else. Miami didn't want to mske big changes. Its our lost in the end

3. Jimmy had a job regardless of who his coworkers were

4. Jimmy had a job regardless of who his coworkers were

5. Body language on our new guys is all wrong. I thought it might get better after they got a chance to play but still dont see it i hope they come around here soon

6. Whatever is not working for the last couple of years, Spo is a huge part of it. I dont get why He is so untouchable.

7. Tyler is a one. If he didn’t have jimmy to start we wouldn’t be saying this.

8. Aren’t we tired of getting these old washed superstars?? I love KD but he’s gonna be 37-38 next season…is it worth getting tied up with money for him? The older he gets the more risk of injuries

9. Personally i would love to see Jimmy get a ring. Pretty much anyone but Boston

10. All I heard was cope the entire time. If wiggins had 2 games like jimmy all Heat media and many fans would have been insufferable about the Heat winning the trade.

11. Wes is correct. Herro is not a number 1. He is a valuable player no doubt. Sleepy Pat is dumb enough to build the franchise around Tyler, but that would not produce a contending team. Trade Herro while his value is high.

12. How will you get KD? The player he wants to play with is gone clown

13. Don't start trying to blame everything on a bench player, it's Herro time now, it's his team

14. Don't give the young talent for KD he will get u championship but needs help

15. Well, if you wanna know what it is telling us about Jimmy is that Pat Riley probably should’ve actually worked on getting him a number one guy that’s all he asked for.

16. Jaquez just dont have ups..he has cement feet, he cant get up, he needs to work on that and his dribbles, without ups he will continue to get blocked when gping to the rim, same goes to his bag of tricks.

17. Davion needs to work on his shots more than anything else ,his form is terrible, i believe thats what stopping his growth.

18. We need more highsmith he has put in the work and spo continue not to put him in. Put the defensive lineup.

19. As a Heat fan, I feel great! However, I believe that Pat, the ownership, and the front office should have paid Jimmy and provided him with more support. The Heat organization let Jimmy down, but I’m glad to see him thriving. The Heat has struggled over the last couple of years, and I don't think Herro and Bam can lead this team to the finals. Jimmy was #1 on the Heat team. You guys appear to be bitter, not cute. Pat has a bad reputation, and may be worse than Jimmy’s. I wish Jimmy the best of luck and hope he stays injury-free.

20. Obviously jimmy in the bay is going to go great.. he didnt want to be in miami anymore.. he finally got his 1 option.. i hope they win it all

21. This organization failed Jimmy. I hope he does pull off an upset in GS with Steph. The two deserves one last run

22. You guys arent the only ones that ive heard say terry has to get benched. I agree dude is awful and costing the team games

23. If the no.1 option is a guy over 30, then i'm not interested at this point. Especially if they have a shaky injury history. This team is young. Let's adjust expectations and keep building through the draft. When they don't, they get 'Terry-ble' players.

24. Some Heat fans are super whiny and overly emotional. Pat did not lose out on Dame. The GM didn’t want to trade Dame to the Heat. Wes is buggin because The Suns wanted EVERYONE young and older and 2-3 1st round draft picks. Who’s gutting the team for a 36 yr old player??? Those are false narratives.

25. Spo’s gona do with this team what he did with the Gogi Dion The Brothers Johnson and White Side line Up after the break

26. Can they get KD?

    No.

27. Well Wes just cant get over it. . Butler was covering up how AWFUL this front office is at finding NBA level talent. And NO we cant get Kevin Durant. There will be a bidding war for KD aint no way in hell cheap ass Mickey Arison is going to out bid anyone in this league.

    Let IT GO

28. Butler is exactly what the Warriors have been missing and it's crazy how cheap they got him.
    For a single top ten protected pick and some expiring salary the Heat allowed the Warriors to turn Andrew Wiggins into Jimmy Butler.
    I love it.
