Why would anyone trust a random internet blogger over Pat Freaking Riley. It's just insane how anyone with an a-hole can become an expert with a blog.

Not listening to arguments again, rather finding some obscure internet takes.

1. Everyone thought Iggy is a 3 months rental
2. Iggy alone doesn't move the needle, neither for Dallas, neither for Miami. Throw away bad salaries and bring in borderline all star, picture changes drastically. Iggy might move the needle for the likes of LAL and LAC, he doesn't for us. With the moves Miami made, he possibly came to the LAL and LAC level. Of course we don't know if it will work, but it looks extremely promissing.

Once again, if all players Miami is paying for a season and a half of Iggy and Gallo (possibly also extended) are Winslow, Johnson and Waiters or Olynik, Pat Riley is an absolute genious. You can flip your Iggy takes as much as you can, but this is a fact.

If Gallo deal fails, Riley paid:
Winslow, Johnson, Olynik or Waiters and no picks! for
Iggy, Crowder and Hill.

Not bad either, they still gor rid of 2 bad contracts while not giving away picks. Winslow was not playing much due to injuries, so he was expendable. Move doesn't make them considerably better, but gets them out of tax and gives them some flexibility next year.

Miami did good on the trade and got useful players...
