Yeah, people are really sleeping on Reggie Williams. Also getting rid of a back SG to sign another stretch 4 would make me throw up.


Is Shawne unable to play SG?



No way at all he can still play SG. He was never all that athletic and now hes probably sitting around 6'8 235. Hes an undersized PF, I wouldn't even want him guarding SF's. Hes also an awful rebounder.

Hes pretty much like a shorter Reshard Lewis who plays worse defense.

Surely he can't be that bad? If that's true, I'll pass.

Watching some more clips of Reggie now and he's not as one dimensional as I thought. Nice.

What don't you get about it? He's a stretch four.

Is Kyle being made available? His rebounding and block shots numbers are pretty impressive at 17 MPG..

What about bringing in a throwback Riley Man Crush Elton Brand if Okafor is deemed unhealthy. I know he is getting up there in age but this man can still defend the low post and can still score down low at a pretty decent rate. Thoughts?


If you can't stand the HEAT then get out of Miami.

Will have to trade with ORL, nothing on MIA that ORL would want I would think.

EDIT: Also from what I've read, people are really high on his work ethic and character. He's an active big...but like I said i'm not sure we have much to offer.

We can sever Norris Cole in half and complete a three-team trade. One half of Norris Cole goes to New York for Shumpert; the other half goes to Orlando for O'Quinn.

Denver is pretty high on Mozgov and I don't think we can offer a better deal than Cleveland can (they're pursuing him)

Yeah, I watched some of it. It was about an hour and a half long and he's on the stage for like 20 minutes. Before that, the speakers just had one huge circle jerk about how amazing Lebron is. No championship predictions, but it's not really different from our welcome party

Blatche is out of our price range and Okafor is probably done.

hollins and o'neal will help u with D and rebounding


JO was dead when we last had him. Neither player are any good - don't live in the past.

well you guys desperately need some size. so how about this?. since BOS & DEN have a glu of C's, you S&T tony douglas or ray allen to DEN for mcgee or to BOS for olynyck.

Allen & Douglas are UFA's
And i really doubt that Boston is willing to trade Olynyk away. Same with Denver about Mozgov.

I'd take both but that isn't the real world
I remember when the Dolphins were perennial contenders
