Richardson starting tonight. Heat starting: Dragić, Richardson, Winslow, Olynyk, Whiteside.
All players that were listed as part of the trade at some point. The dream appears dead.
I reckon Miami is trying to bluff us.

Have a solid offer on the table from Miami (per rumors) but we are trying to squeeze more out of it instead of moving on. Wiggins is playing like a D leaguer.

I'd be mad at Thibs if this wasn't the MO of this team for 30 years.

Sad Moses.
I don't think Miami has enough assets on their roster to trade for Jimmy Butler.
........but maybe Im too greedy.

Ainge has played this league like a fiddle. Boston should be good for years to come filled with home-grown talent. I just wish we could do that. Why can't we do that!!!???
Because Thibbs traded all of it. The Wolves were finally on that path - young version of GSW. With the passing of Flip, that dream died with him.

Watching Mitchell was hell, and then watching Thibbs come in and intentionally tank the dream in order to try and rebuild his past is like watching him spit on Flip’s grave.

I really can’t watch much more of this.

RIP FLIP.
A young version of GSW?!? :lol:

Jesus.

The guy who is rooting for Thibbs and thinks he’s doing a bang up job is laughing...imagine that.

I would find it hard to believe there is one person on this board that wouldn’t want that roster we had 2 to 3 years ago right now over what we have today. Imagine if they had built upon that squad instead of prematurely blowing the load on a one.... wait.....maybe one and 1/2 year rental of Butler and Teague and Taj. Taj alone added to the previous roster was probably enough to get them in the playoffs.

This thread delivers. Joda apparently thinks Taj Gibson is MosesMalone and would make a 31 win team a 47 win team.

Would you trade LaVine, Dunn, and Markkanen for whatever Miami is offering?
And remember, when we made the trade, the consensus was we fleeced the Bulls.

I don’t think think the 31 Win Team was a 31 Win Team - Thibbs tanked that season and that team to get another pick to throw at Chicago for Butler.

Team should have won 9 more games without Thibbs tanking.

But Thibblodytes believe he walks on water. Boy were they wrong and jodaman01 was so right.

I’ll take my record of predictions these last two seasons over anyone here.
