So the heat are in the second apron now? Isn't that why Boston traded away their guys to avoid penalties?

I would be happier if I were confident we were going to do anything this summer.

Love Duncan, but he just Jason Kapono'd himself out of the nba. This will be his last contract before he goes to greece.

You're saying it like it's a bad thing. Greece is amazing 8-) Especially if you're a multi-millionaire like Duncan.

No they're not. They just can't exceed it. Which means nothing because this team has no interest in touching the first apron.

Each had value at different points in time, we never sold high on any of them. Whether we planned on keeping them or not

I'm not happy with Pat Riley and the FO either, but losing Duncan is not a reason to be upset. I was never a huge fan.

Pat doesn’t have any aprons because he can’t cook for chit.

How can you sell high in the middle of those playoff runs?

Dragic left it all on the line in the bubble....but he was cooked after that. We should've traded him pre-bubble right after we signed Jimmy?

I swear this must have always been the plan since before Duncan opted out. They agreed to do this and stuck to the plan. Can’t admit otherwise since that would mean some sort of colluding.

No kidding….

Duncan, Caleb, Vincent, Strus were about to get their CDL licenses and start driving trucks around the country… the Heat took a chance at them, developed their low skill/talent and changed their lives forever with the contracts they got.

Tucker and Crowder were finished by the time we trwded them. dragic was beyond done.

The only real mistake on that list is the Rozier trade.

The runner-up would be letting Crowder walk.

What the hell do people think we could've fetched for Gabe Vincent???

They got a 2nd for Strus....which is all you could expect.
