We could extract an important asset for him out of Miami. He's clearly on his way out. Get the asset, then waive him.
It's what we should have done last summer when Golden State attached a 1st to move Iggy. We NEED more trade ammunation.
Waiters is toxic...

Agree. Question is, does Miami have assets. They have basically traded away all their first and second round picks:
- First first one is available 2025.
- First second one is available 2027.
This leaves youngsters. Adebayo, Herro and Nunn are certainly off the table. This leaves Jones and Robinson. None of them improves us a lot or has a really high upside imho. Jones is a "younger DFS", Robinson is "McDermott". I have no idea about Okpala.
Difficult :-(
