That said

Hello everyone!

Having seen a lot of sentences with that said and having said that, I tried to learn it means. Even though there are lots of topics about the use of those phrases, I still don't understand. Could you please explain me?

Detroit's skill level is top-notch,that being said /that said/ having said that, Miami Heat is able to beat them.

Also can I omit the that? ( Having said, Miami...)

As far as I know, other meaning of that said is knowing this, but I can't think of any example, would you please give an example and tell me whether I am right about the meaning of it being knowing this?( I hope this sentence is correct)

Thanks.

You cannot omit 'that': it is not a conjunction, it is a demonstrative pronoun. Detroit's skill level is top-notch. Even in that case /Even though that is true / In spite of that , Miami Heat is able to beat them.

Thank you Mr.M. Did you change that said to Even in that case because of that said being wrong or that said and even in that case being interchangeable? If that said is wrong, could you please give an example? Because I can't think of any example with that said right now. Thanks.

Also I hope I'm not making grammar mistakes whilst writing those.

I changed the phrase to a synonym so that you can better understand it.
