Miami Heat: The Pros Of Trading For Bradley Beal

With Beal in Miami, they would get an upgrade in the halfcourt, which Miami desperately needs.

Pros

Beal’s ability to create his own shot is something that Miami’s offense has been missing over the past couple of seasons.

Butler can do it but we all know that’s not what makes him special. Tyler Herro can do it but not consistently enough.

Another thing that would make Beal a good fit in Miami is that he could be the bridge between Butler and Bam Adebayo. Butler is 32 years old and Adebayo is 24 years old.

With Beal being 28, it is a nice bridge for Miami to have in ages.  Beal could be in Butler’s timeline, while also fitting Adebayo’s timeline.

Of course, it would also give Miami a much-needed three-level scorer. There could be even more added to this list.

However, these are the main things and the things that would absolutely cause a team to make a move such as this one.
