Completely unfair. The Heat were scouting Zoran on his own merits. In the one time we gave him minutes, he had a game score of 14.2. Yes, it was against the 76ers but c'mon... Let's forget his last name and give him a chance, shall we?

I'm hoping Zoki gets a real shot, but the way it is looking: J-Rich and Winslow will get minutes and either Zoki or Ennis will see consistent minutes

Someone needs to get that big goofball in a room with Steve Nash and Kendrick Perkins for about two hours.

Cheap, athletic young contributors is what we need right now around our core veteran guys.

The funny thing is while Winslow has way more upside than Richardson, Richardson is actually the better player right now. He is 6'6 Guard that can run the point and is a good defender. He shot .798 from the line and .359 from 3 point range. I won't expect either Winslow or Richardson to be a great contributors next year but wouldn't be too surprise if Richardson performs on par with Winslow if we keep him around.

Let's pump the brakes.

I am excited to watch this Richardson project unfold, though. Definitely has some NBA athleticism

Even if richardson was the better player right now(and i disagree with that), he would have went a lot higher than 40...

6 steals and 4 blocks in 2 first summer league games.

Defense looks legit, and when he put in as a PG his handle looked legit too.

Still need o see him draining shots.

Not sure about you all, but couldn't help but think of another Josh when watching JRich ... Josh Howard. Just the way he runs, long arms etc .. eerily similar to Howard .. but it could just be me.

richardson spent 4 years in college cultuvating his game while Winslow is coming off his first year as a freshman (while winning a title)

These guys are just ready to contribute bottom line but if Winslow spent 4 years in college too he would be waaay better and much different

People these days...

Josh isn't going anywhere. He'll be on that final 15-man roster.

Who do you think is gone from our deep pool of guards? Rio, Napier?

I'm guessing he gets to start today

I really think if we want to compete for a championship next year we should keep Rio. He has proven that even with all his flaws he can help us win championships. Napier and Birdman are my candidates to be trades. Napier because TJ just has more natural ability and can learn the point this year while watching Dragic, Chalmers and even Wade. Birdman because of fiances and age. While he can be great in stretches it would be more prudent to have a young guy as your 4th big because that young player will be cheaper and has the possibility to develop into something more than they are currently.

I could see Josh taking an extra year of polishing his offensive game before he makes the final roster.

We're selling his jersey and gave him a press conference..I can't remember a 2nd round pick getting that before he got cut lol

J. Rich has looked good defensively.
