Heat dreams of winning Giannis trade race are crushed if rumor is true
"Though there were never any direct rumors linking Antetokounmpo to Miami, whenever a major superstar is mentioned in trade talks, the Heat come up. They are a major market, they have established a winning culture over the years, and they always seem to be interested in chasing trades for stars (even though almost nothing ever comes to fruition). Bleacher Report has written up trades mocking Antetokounmpo to Miami, and plenty of Heat fans have undoubtedly Photoshopped him into Heat jerseys."
"Unfortunately for the Heat, Antetokounmpo's thought process definitely makes sense, especially with what the current state of the East looks like. For years, Antetokounmpo has made it painfully clear that he wants to compete for championships, and right now, the Knicks are set up much better than the Heat are when it comes to pushing for titles. Where the Heat would likely be left with Antetokounmpo and one of Bam Adebayo"
Giannis Antetokounmpo would only consider leaving the Milwaukee Bucks to play for the New York Knicks if he were to exit Milwaukee. His U.S.-based representative fielded heavy interest and evaluated potential outside fits ahead of any trade push. Multiple teams were discussed internally, but the Knicks emerged as the sole acceptable non-Bucks destination. The Miami Heat frequently appear in hypothetical trade scenarios due to market size and a winning culture, but Antetokounmpo is not interested in Miami. Antetokounmpo prioritizes championship contention, and the Knicks currently offer a stronger immediate title outlook in the Eastern Conference than the Heat.
