I actually had Mitchell Robinson ahead of Duncan Robinson on my board. Here's to hoping Duncan will be on the Heat for awhile.
Dude's gonna make a lot of money when his current deal is up. Will the Heat pay?
Well, he's an RFA which helps. But yes they will. 2021 free agency is a dumpster fire now, and Riley has a history over overpaying to keep lesser guys than him. I was really referring to the possibility of him being included in a trade to try to get Riley the whale he's always hunting.

Could you cheer for James Harden?

Good pick. His value seems to rest entirely on Harden staying or the players they'd get back in a Harden trade.

Sigh. I really don't want to. I've probably said this before on here but this feels like the Shaq trade. The '03-'04 team was one of my favorite Heat teams ever. Young, scrappy, exciting with some reliable vets. Wade, Caron Butler, Lamar Odom with Brian Grant and Eddie Jones. I loved that team. They traded Butler, Odom, and Grant for 32 year old Shaq. I obviously get it. They won the chip in '06 and were up 3-2 in the ECF in '05 and probably only lost because Wade got hurt. But I never loved those Shaq teams. I wasn't a fan of him before he came and didn't really become a fan when he got here. I did root for him insofar as helped the team win, though. But Shaq broke down during that '06 run and the Heat spent the next 4 years in the wilderness, so the long term look of that trade isn't that great. A potential Harden trade feels very similar to me.

And Shaq is 10X more likeable than Harden...

There were rumors the Celts were interested in him and I had already fallen in love before he signed in Houston. So this might be a heart over head pick.

Yeah, I actually like Shaq decently these days. As a 6th grader I got mad that he left the Magic because I liked him and Penny. And then I hated the Lakers when all the MJ fans became Lakers fans as soon as he retired. My dislike for Harden definitely runs deeper.

Kyle Korver was an All Star. Duncan Novak will never be an All Star.
