Between what he’s heard about the Miami Heat, Caron Butler, the Gentleman’s Sweep from the playoffs, and two early games this season, Giannis knows what the Heat are about.
Marketing Themselves To Him As A Franchise
The Miami Heat are an organization with a reputation around the league. Yes, they are going to work you harder than most organizations, but the results will turn out the right way because of it.
This is something that Giannis has not only heard about, but seen with his own eyes. Every time he faces the Heat, it’s a battle.
If that wasn’t enough, you also have the most recent playoff series between the Bucks and the Heat. That was an up-close and personal look at the differences between the two cultures.
They also have two early-season matches to open the year, back to back, so that too should provide Giannis the chance to get a good look. This is all good for the Miami Heat’s opportunity to land the Greek Freak once he blows his way out of The Badger State.
The Miami Heat could go a totally different direction but I believe this is their desired choice. If it is, they are set up to do it and have the opportunity.
His latest quotes show that he isn’t fully committed and that’s a good thing for teams looking to swoop in and grab him. I am sure Pat Riley is paying attention.
