If they want scoot to be the starter at pg then I do see another trade with jrue going somewhere else. But I wouldn't be mad if they keep him either especially he hell premeter defense type of guard. Ayton I like since college so to me it's a good trade to me. The guys that was since out except for Dame wasn't doing for me.

HOLY SHIT FAMS. Milwaukee is a lock for the East next year. They get Dame and KEEP MIDDLETON? I'm liking what Portland get back. Pieces for now and the future. I'd trade Jrue and get younger real fast. I am damn excited for next year, people. The only thing else I want is Ant traded for another big man or a wing. Scoot/Sharpe backcourt. Grant/Ayton front court. Very excited for the future.

Yeah, I think this is a solid B to B- trade for Cronin. He had to maneuver around a lot of mines but all things considered this is a pretty good haul. And we fucked Miami and their entitled (but never shows up to games) fan base!
 
I kinda love this trade in that Dame gets a ring on a team I can gladly root for, next to one of my other favorite players and Miami is blocked from winning for all of Butler's prime. That last part is truly glorious as is trolling Heat fans today. Hard to put a price on that but I think 3 FRP's is about right.

My first thought, too. Holiday is terribly underappreciated. I've always thought he would be the perfect PG for US teams playing internationally. If he was a couple years older I would love to have him coming off the bench and teaching Scoot the ropes, especially on the defensive end. Now, some of those Heat offerings look a little more enticing if it's for Holiday instead of Dame.

It's not that he's unappreciated, it's that he's 34 years old and we're on the hook for him for $70MM over the next two years.

Exactly. I can cheer for Dame. I wouldnt have been able to at all if he was in Miami. But Milwuakee? Theres some solidarity with them. Love it all the way around. And the trade, commiserate with Dames huge fucking money, is good.

Not assessing this until we find out what they get back for Holiday. That's an all-star two-way guard that definitely would have bring back good value in a trade, more than Tyler Herro.

Not only that, for a Bucks competitor, he's a Dame stopper from a championship Milwaukee team that you have to play against to get to the Finals.

Can someone explain to me what unprotected swap rights mean?

If im reading right, we get the higher of the two picks of that year and they take the lowest.

Anyone feel free to correct me. And these are unprotected.

And Milwaukee is one of the smallest markets.

Can someone confirm that the pick and pick swaps are unprotected?

Seeing people calling out other posters who strung this along for the heat. I think a lot of them were over this just like a lot of us were. Therefore some seem to be just glad that it is over with, with some understandable displeasure that they ended up having no involvement whatsoever.

A lot of people bashing Pat Riley… How can you clown Pat Riley as a Heat fan when he’s done what he’s done for the franchise…

Is it weird that I dont hate Dame as much now because he's going to Milwaukee instead of Miami? Like Im still annoyed he tried to strongarm us, but im not as annoyed because maybe it didnt work? I dunno, im in my feelings so I'm working through it.

Not weird at all. I feel the same.

If I have to like one thing about this trade, it's the overwhelming feeling of Schadenfreude when it comes to the M'eat. F*** Pat Riley and their fans.

I believe that word was coined specifically for this exact moment, another word that comes to mind is Karma.

Meanwhile in Miami: "Mr. Riley, Thom Yorke is here at the FO and says he's here for some kind of Citizen's arrest?"
