The HEAT Realm
Heat fans trying to ragebait while being equally serious at the same time is genuinely one of the funniest things in NBA Twitter history
Look at Giannis face reaction after the dunk.
That doesn’t look like a guy who’s “leaving” in 1-2 years.
He’s having the most intense/best training camp of his entire career right now.

Zero Expectations. It sucks long-term, but it seems like fresh air right now after 5 years of disappointment

“I’ve never been apart of something like this. — I want to leave my mark. I want to know when this chapter is over, if I’m only here for a year, two or whatever it’s going to be I want to leave my mark”👀

If you're going to publish a hit piece on another fanbase, it would behoove you to at least do a little research.
Ethan Skolnick on the Bucks fans who are mad at Giannis for leaving them:
“Bucks fans are salty and I don’t understand why. He won Finals MVP and he brought them their only championship…the (Bucks) organization failed him — when he left there wasn’t a single player on the Bucks roster that was drafted after him. Not a single player, they f’d it all up — they waived and stretched Dame.”

Jon Horst on extending Gary Trent Jr.:
"When you look at Gary Trent and what he's done for us in the last 2 seasons — and even before us in his young career — he's an elite shooter, I think one of 5 or 6 players to shoot and make the amount of 3s he has as a reserve over the last couple years. Only 27 years old. Was big for us in playoff moments, so there's a big belief in Gary for what we think matters, and that's elite shooting in the NBA that's hard to find. It's something that Taylor [Jenkins] values, and I think he's even going to maximize more with us, so it was a great opportunity for us to do that, and we acted on it."

Jon Horst's message to Bucks fans about the team’s direction:
"We talked a lot about having a successful offseason, executing a successful draft, hiring a great coach as the pillars of our focus when the season ended last year. We sit here today feeling like we accomplished a number of those things. We're excited about it. Starting here with this guy next to me. There's a great level of energy and excitement, buy-in, collectively with the group, and that gives us a foundation to build from. Everything we're going to do today and going forward, is building, competing and building a group and trying to do it together each and every day".

Wes Edens was asked about the health of the fanbase after there were a lot of empty seats at Fiserv last season:
"Wisconsin fans are fanatical sports fans. Everything kinda goes through a cycle. Obviously when you're winning 60 games a year, it's not hard to fill up your stadium. When you win less than that, it's a little more challenging. But, we've made big investments not just to the arena, but all the programming with it to create the best entertainment that we can. People spend a lot of money to come out on a Tuesday night in February. We want them to feel like they've had the best experience they can, not just on the court but off and all that goes into it".
"I really believe that fans are very intelligent and are very authentic. If you're authentic, they really respond to that, and you don't have to win 75 games to have the arena full again. I feel like we're going to have a really good year on the court and I think we're going to have a good year off the court as well".

Wes Edens hopes other teams won't like to play the Bucks because of how hard they will play:
"If we all did our little straw poll of who were going to be the top 8 teams in the East, I will bet that there would be a lot of diversity in terms of who we would pick. It's going to be a lot of change and a lot of really exciting teams that I'm excited to see play. For a team like ours, we've got a tremendous amount of young talent. We have a very very deep team. I think there's going to be a huge amount of competition within the team. Really what I hope is that competition spills out on the court and we're the team nobody likes to play because of how hard we play".
