Is it possible We're 1 piece away from contending?

[Shewasfly]

I don't really care what a Lebron fan thinks about the capabilities of this Heat team. A LeBron fan will always automatically say we are far away from contending and need a million pieces to get back to contention just because Lebron is no longer on the team. They must at all times feed this narrative that Lebron is god.

I still think we are 1 piece away. I don't get so high and low as everyone else every time we win or lose. If we get a good center and Wade stays healthy, we can compete with anyone.

I voted for "5". I don't think we are one piece away. I appreciate what Lebron James did for us, but I'm not a fan. He's not on our team anymore.

[TMIMITW]

I actually think its our bench and validity in our starting rotation that is needed.
Napier is the real deal.... watching this guy get better every game is incredible. ( The double crossover on DWILL was spectacular, minus the turnover pass) As he get comfortable expect Tony Parker esc type player.

James Ennis is also a strong piece, learning from Deng will make him great

Besides that who really is our bench. . Rio, Granger, williams, cole, and bird. we need a jamal crawford, ginobli, taj, nate rob, type player to push us to contend.

Just my opinion

[kyphi]

get Plumlee

We are 4-5 away. 3-4 of which are out injured.

[The Miami Heat]

We need a center to contend.

its not realistic but would love to get Faried from the Nuggets. (there are rumors the nuggets mngt doesnt like him so I can dream!) - Give up Ennis/Mcbob/Cole +picks

PG - Napier/Chalmers
SG - Wade/Brown/Dawkins
SF - Deng/ Granger
PF - Faried /Williams/UD
C - Bosh /Birdman/Hamilton

We need a Center, not another PF to join Mcbob, Williams, Haslem and Bosh (Who is really a PF too).

Faried can't shot or defend anyone, we need paint defense.

[Smash3]

Past three years I have said: Wade will go back to his healthy self this season. Heat are going no where with his bum ass knees.

Really? Was that before or after they signed him to a 4 year extension last month? Whoever that person is that said that, block them on twitter and change stations if/when they're on TV or radio.

Adrian Wojnarowski ✔ @WojYahooNBA
Denver Nuggets, Kenneth Faried have reworked extension agreement. Faried will sign a 4-year, $50 million deal, league sources tell Yahoo.'

[MarvinGaye1983]

Early November was such a good time.

[Rodrizzle]

Yes and that one piece is a prime Michael Jordan

[Shewasfly]

Yes. The one piece is a new coach. There is NO reason this team should be this bad.

[Rodrizzle]

Its nice to see Whiteside in this game. Damn shows how much we miss having a big man

[EscapoTHB]

Why are we so terrible? There are pieces on this team. I mean how are the Bucks a better team than us? The Pacers without George or Lance Stephenson? WTF?

1 Piece...we need at least two pieces. That one piece, and a new coach. Spo has just flat out forgotten how to coach after four years of having Lebron validate his bad ideas.

[Paz]

One word... SPO!!!

[DefenseWins]

Spo had better defenses than this with worse players, besides a prime Wade.

There is something wrong. I don't know what it is...

No identity whatsoever.

defense my friend.

Bucks in top 10, and are young, so they can fly around and be a good defensive team

Pacers have always been good defensively as well. They still have Hibbert and West too. But this team is 25th in defense... I don't get why the defense is bad. I am starting to think it's personnel.

[IggieCC]

LOLOL I forgot about this thread. Funny shiiiit

Actually we are only 3 pieces away from contending I think. All we need is a 3 team trade like this one
http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=nwruxh5

R. Jackson/whoever
Wade/whoever
Durant/whoever
Bosh/whoever
A.Davis/whoever

Bench/whoever
Spo/whoever

I bet we can win despite Spo or anything else with this team. Do it!!
