If Lowry can play like he did in Houston, then Lowry-Ross-Derozan-Gay is a pretty good core to make the playoffs.

Good bunch of athletic guys but I think too many who are similar. However Gay as a go to guy is better than what you had.

Man I'm still pumped from watching LeBron live for the first time. So exciting. Whenever he had a breakaway dunk, our entire section rose up in anticipation and loudly cheered. Whenever the Heat come to Toronto, I'm gonna try to be there all the time. I envy you guys who live in the Miami area and could see the Heat play all the time.

the rudy gay/derozan combo has the potential to be great. both of those two can put up points in bunches. man bosh went ham on his former team yesterday. i wonder if he's mad about rudy gay possibly having the chance to be the best raptor of all time lol. anyways didn't watch the game but saw the boxscore, great job from the big 3 but everybody else, eh not so much but a win is a win. congrats to spo even tho i'm not happy for him...

I still feel we're missing something off the bench. We all depended on Ray to bring in scoring off the bench but his shooting hasn't been consistent this year.

I wish we had a dependable, multi guard off the bench. Like a Lou Williams or JR Smith type of player. Crawford would have been awesome.

That Miller contract could have been used on someone that GIVES us that type of production. Sigh.

we shouldve kept beasley. i keep telling yeah. sans the anthony and miller contract we couldve easily afforded to keep him and maybe finds someone else on the cheap.

in reality what has miller or anthony done for us. take away millers game 5 which we were gonna win regardless and anthony who barely played in the playoffs.

Righhhtt....Beasley. that's genius.

As much as a bust Miller turned out to be, at least he's a great teamate and a smart player.

What we need is Beasley..of course. the 39% field goal shooter, 32% from 3, bad defender, bad rebounder, bad professional that even PHX would love to get rid of.

Those numbers are only for this season and mostly as the #1 scoring option on a bad team. His other seasons were between 44-48% and that's not too bad for a jumpshooter. I think he'd shoot at least around 50% if he got the open looks the big 3 produce.
The other stuff is unfortunately currently very much true and there's no telling how much he would have improved in those areas had he stayed here.

Beasley is too immature, he can never learn...
