Thinking about a random non-trade: Daryl Morey offered four 1sts to Minnesota for Jimmy Butler in 2018. Minny turned him down and took RoCo+Saric.
Houston might’ve won the title with Butler. Minny got a package with no picks. The blockbuster landscape has done a complete 180. – 1:39 PM

Fascinating that prideful Lowry didn’t give an inch publicly after Riley said he needs to be better shape: “Honestly, he has his opinion. Right? Everyone has their opinion and it doesn’t do anything for me.” But he’s a pro & will be in shape. miamiherald.com/sports/spt-col… – 1:11 PM

Lowry shrugged off Riley’s May challenge for him to be in better shape, saying he never heard the comment initially, saying Riley is entitled to his opinion and said he doesn’t know if he’s at same weight and body fat as the end of last year. – 12:33 PM

At some point, probably before the February trade deadline, the Heat might need to add a helpful rotation piece instead of clinging to all its first-round draft inventory like a squirrel clenching acorns. Now is not the time to do it, not for Jae Crowder, Myles Turner or Bojan Bogdanovic. But at some point, if we get to January and the Heat looks clearly behind the Celtics and Bucks — and anybody else — it will be time to temporarily ditch the hoarding-picks-for-a-star strategy if there’s the opportunity to trade a first-rounder for a high-quality rotation piece. So yearn if you wish. But the waiting for a star seems more wishful thinking than plausible strategy at this point. If you’re going to yearn, yearn for Kyle Lowry and Victor Oladipo to return to their 2019 All-Star form. That seems more realistic, at this point, than hoping a star tries to force his team to trade him to Miami. -via Miami Herald / September 15, 2022
