Heat - Nets Trade:
Heat get Ben Simmons
Nets get Kyle Lowry, Max Struss and a future 1st round Pick
If nets lose Irving In offseason they might keep Lowry for a smaller contract to lure In others to put around KD
Heat get more defense to compete with other top teams

The Heat need to trade J Butler, if they trade for B simmons.
Jimmy would kill him ;-)

Heat can't trade for Simmons with trading Bam first, and they aren't trading Bam.

@Shaq - Brooklyn can't take Bam with Simmons because they are both on designated rookie extensions, but Miami CAN take Simmons and pair him with Bam. The difference is Bam was signed by Miami, where Ben was traded to Brooklyn. The rule is you can't trade for 2 players on designated rookie extensions, but you can still trade for one if the one you have was a home grown signing.
