Re: Andray Blatche: Am I crazy?
I like him in this situation. Cheap. You can let him go whenever you want.
He's not a great player, he's not efficient, but he always played in teams that needed him to help more than he's able.
He's ok as a backup, grabbing some rebounds, going for easy baskets. Fouling bigs when needed. I think he can be efficient if he stops taking those 20ft 2pt shots.
He can have a 60 TS% if not shoting from distance.

John Lucas tweeted he's signing with Brooklyn. I guess JLIII got in his ear and said "anywhere but Miami man, please!'

Re: Andray Blatche: Am I crazy?
I'm gonna feel real dirty...and kinda stupid...having to cheer for this dude, if he comes to Miami. I'll have to take back all the bad things I said about him. I can't hate on one of our guys. I didn't like Juwan, but I didn't really hate him either. If we give Blatche an offer, I can only hope the best for him. Hopefully if we're seriously tendering an offer to him, then he's actually good. However, I believe he's just using us as leverage. PEACE.

Re: Andray Blatche: Am I crazy?
I heard he's going to the Nets, and I say: GOOD !!!
He's young, athletic and got some talent, but he's a selfish idiot and not the kind of player that has a winning mentality. He'd be a horrible fit personality wise on a team where pretty much everybody has sacrificed something: money, shots, ego. Him taking little money would only be because he has not been offered more elsewhere, not because he wanted to be part of something special.
Whenever I look at him I see a less-talented more-selfish Vince Carter. The guy who by my count is on his 3rd team that reached the finals before he got there and then fared worse with him on the roster. And yeah, I know there were other factors, but still, it's the 3rd time. If he were to somehow end up on the Thunder, I'd bet on them not reaching the finals again.
So yeah, I don't want Blatche anywhere near Miami's roster.
