With heat losing in the finals,does that increase the chance of cavs trading the 1st pick for love?

The spurs also destroyed the Thunder and Blazers. I guess those teams should blow it up too

Haha The Thunder should've gone 7 with them... They did not get destroyed. Thunder were the second best team in the NBA this year

The Heat are facing a lot more uncertainty with its roster than the Thunder are. The Thunder's top players are returning. The Heat's stars have options to leave if they want. And then the salary cap ramifications of those decisions...

Big difference.

Thunder and Blazer players are just hitting their primes, Miami's (Wade and Bosh) seem to be sharply falling out of theirs

Don't know if I agree completely about Bosh. But Wade sat 30+ games to avoid looking spent in the playoffs. I'm not sure it worked.

And his game does not seem to lend itself to an extended career.

Does anyone think Wade gets the Kobe treatment? The guy did win 3 titles for the franchise. It would seem a little cold to not bring him back even though his effectiveness is so low right now. I think Lebron leaves and they let Bosh and Wade play out their careers in MIA if they chose. I can't see Riley asking them to opt out with the intention of cutting one of them loose to bring in another star.

MS, why would we trade Martin if we're just going to take back Jack's contract? Counterproductive if you ask me. It's easier to find a backup PG than it is a good SG in this league.

I like Jack's style of play. Martin's not so much. I wasn't focusing on the contracts, just a good veteran leader off the bench to lead our 2nd unit. Martin is not a leader, and doesn't show up in big moments. He's not the veteran I want surrounded by a bunch of young, promising players.
