i've been hearing Knight rumors for up to a year before we traded him. it made perfect sense to make that swap. a 28 year old Bled and a 31 year old Dragic, only three years from now, does not a contender make. doesn't matter who you add to that.
it's funny - Gerald is probably taking the shots Dragic needs to take! i love that Miami team, because it's got our imprint all over it. the question is, how do they make those pieces work, offensively and defensively, in ways we couldn't? what do you do with a 30 year old Dragic and a 34 year old Wade, both on max deals? (Wade, by the way, is only on a 1 year deal. he could bolt.....maybe, if he feels he isn't getting paid enough.)
i never thought the Heat were a legit contender. never. the pace difference between Dragic and Wade couldn't be bigger.....i never knew how they were going to incorporate Mr. Fast Break into one of the 5 slowest teams in the league. but, i'm happy for Goran, Gerald, and Amar'e.
unfortunately, you reap what you sow. Goran disrespected the FO. maybe there's a better fit out there, but for right now, he's just gotta make it work with Wade. don't think it'll happen this year, though
