The SGA/Haliburton model: Would Miami Heat trade Tyler Herro for a rookie contract? May 21, 2025

Show notes

As we continue to explore ideas to reset the Miami Heat roster --- and maybe their close -- we look at what Indiana and Oklahoma City did to get young stars who hadn't fully emerged yet, in exchange for All-Stars. Could Miami look to do the same by dealing Tyler Herro before his next big payday? Alex Toledo gives Ethan Skolnick some (albeit unlikely) options.

Show notes

With rumors swirling that the 76ers might try to unload Paul George and their #3 overall pick for another star, maybe even Kevin Durant, should the Miami Heat look at taking what the 76ers or another team in their position might offer? Would it make sense to take back a big contract for a declining player if it nets them a young star? Ethan Skolnick is joined by Eternal Bast and Digital Adel to deliberate.

Show notes

With the All-Rookie team being announced, and Ke'lel Ware likely on it, Ethan Skolnick and Alex Toledo compare Ware's similar rookie season with that of Bam Adebayo. And ask, whether Ware can ever progress as much? Further, should he be as untouchable now as Bam became.

Ethan Skolnick and Brady Hawk discuss whether there's anything the Heat can do to restore value, either on the court or in a trade.
