give me hawes vc caron and nelson and we good

We need young fresh legs to complement our Big 3. A collection of hawes (26) vc (37) caron (34) and nelson (31) works out to average 32yo. That's not what we are looking for.

I say, we sign Lance Stephenson (23), Patrick Patterson (25), Andray Blatche (27) and Jameer Nelson (31). That works out to average 26.5yo and we will be good.

if we can get those 3 guys id assume ray allen and birdman would take less to resign and maybe boozer would consider signing for the vet min

collison/napier
wade/allen/ennis
james/williams/beasley
bosh/boozer/haslem
okafor/andersen/oden/hamilton


Thats actually a solid bench. I would be ok with this.

yeah and imo its something attainable not a pipe dream, i havent really ran the numbers but williams and collison arent exactly hot names right now. depending on okafors health id wager to start williams at the 4 and have bosh at the 5 again.

oh well. As long as the Big 3 are back ,we're good. Still the favorites.

grab hill and marion and call it a day. resign ray and bird

nappier/cole/billups or blake
wade/ray/
bron/marion/ennis
bosh/lewis/ud
hill/bird/oden

im ok with something like that.

marion is still really good and billups would be great in the juwan howard role and can play spot minutes at the 2 as well. not so sure about bringing back lewis. id like to see beasley instead with another training camp under his belt and a larger role

Is there a reason anyone is more interested in Marion than in Vince Carter? Carter is the vastly superior 3-point shooter. If they are available for the same price, give me Carter by a long shot over Marion

we need a good wing defedner that can replace battier, marion is still an above average defender. i like vince too, but we need an elite wing defender who can give bron a rest

http://www.nba.com/freeagents/2014/

this page is comprehensive list of free agents both UFA/RFA
even if we miss out on big names there are still some players out there that can fit this team
im not worried

i dont necessarily believe all these rumors surrounding the big 3. if lebron was really worried about where he was going to play next season why is he taking long vacations while other FA are already getting calls and meetings

the big 3 all opted out as planned and so did haslem. we have a ton of cap space to work with here

again riley said re-tool not rebuild!!!

everyone needs to chillax lol

Lebbitz says no big free agent signings; only discounted vets.

Gonna smoke a lot of weed tomorrow. Over/under 15+ blunts, no sure yet. Hopefully the Gunners lock up Alexis Sanchez to take some of this pain away.

its gotta be interesting that okc is going after guys with minimal cap space, and u hear nothing about the heat doing anything, even though we could potentially have some decent space.

D.Collison and the Kings talking. Know some Heat fans wanted him on board before if we didn't get Lowry

You never hear anything coming out of our front office. They are very tight lipped. It's usually agents with agendas or reporters guessing

Honestly, if we featured Chris Bosh more in the offense as our 2nd option then that would alleviate a lot of the 'problems' surrounding this team.
Super Eagles GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Return to Miami Heat
