    Miami Heat have had a bad run of injuries this season, just made worse by today news of Winslow.

    Justise Winslow (right shoulder) will have surgery on Thursday to repair a torn labrum and is likely out for the rest of the season.

    They’re not gonna make the playoffs. Might as well have the surgery.

     this helps with the all important "tank" season. Miami has to rebuild anyhow and need a young stud talent to build around anyhow, so this is a blessing in disquise.

    Riley is smart, he got the Sixers before with a top 10 protected pick, conveniently tanked just enough, and the pick didn’t transfer to Philly. 

    Miami is a real "threat" to finish in the bottom 2.

    I think once Simmons gets back Philly will finish ahead of Miami, which sucks.

    Being at the bottom is the best chance of grabbing a top 2 pick. 

    For me, this draft is all about Fultz and Jackson, and then everyone else.  

    Annoying that Miami has joined the tanking sweepstakes.

     in 2015 b/c they shut it down that year too & I don’t blame them. 

    Teams win in the NBA w/ Great players & unlike MLB or NFL in the NBA there is only one place to get great players & that is in the top 10 of the Draft lottery. 

    Philly got relentless grief NOT b/c they were so blatant about it but b/c Everyone knows it works & now look at what they have Simmons & Embiid are almost the same age & they both could be super stars & it’s a great fit b/c Simmons is so unselfish.

     & thx to Hinkie they’ll have 2 Lottery picks this June when they had Zero 1st round picks in 2017 when Hinkie took over. It’s amazing to think about that Hinkie got Phila Two top 10 Lottery picks in a Crazy deep 2017 Draft in trades for MCW & to move back two spots in the 2014 draft so Orlando could get Elfrid Payton & Hinkie got his man Saric anyway. Imagine if they end up w/ picks #4 & #7 & land Josh Jackson & Malik Monk or Dennis Smith & Jonathan Isaac & their core is Embiid, Simmons, Saric, Jackson & Monk – that’s Insane!

    That’s why I don’t blame Miami. If they get Fultz, they have a Sweet core of Fultz, Whiteside & Winslow. I wish my Lakers would get their Tank on so we can keep our pick. I would luv to see Harry Giles or Markelle Fultz or Josh Jackson in a Lakers Uni. Dallas should tank, Sac-Town should Tiggidy Tank!
