Had a good year. Sucks to see him go, but 3/33 fully guaranteed at 37…get that bread, PJ.

Good for him for getting a deal like that. Heat desperately need a PF.

Got to admit it's surprising to me that he wasn't really about the culture, I thought the fit was more then just on the court.

I guess he rather be a hired gun at this point, which is his right.

Appreciate what he gave here but disappointing to see his attitude.

Honestly, if all the players handled themselves this way - there would no point to watch this league. It would be musical chairs with random names cycling from team to team non stop. Whatever.

Nah. He was a mercenary. I don't blame him, bit he doesn't get more than a passing 'see ya' from me.

too bad he couldn't hold up but that's not entirely his fault. can't over-rely on older players esp as an undersized big.

amazing story about a guy who stack around and made a great NBA career and I always respect him for it

his career earnings aren't too big for NBA standards. gotta get the most money and it is what it is

should've gone for Kyle Kuzma as I said Rex :x

I dont get this post. He came here, he played great. We went out and got what the market dictated. It was up to us to match that money or let him go. I don't see where he did anything wrong. Remember this is a business not a family, he did what was best for him. Honestly I can't be mad at him at all.
