Terrel Harris has re-signed with Heat. Probably just a camp invite, but I think he'll make it over Gladness.

Glad Wade's out of Jordan brand. They make terrible basketball shoes these days. I believe those shoes were one of the reasons why Wade got so injury prone last season; those shoes suck at traction and for a player like Wade, it is a necessity.

This. New Jordan's just aren't cool anymore. Its all about the retros.

And orangeparka, this doesn't mean anything about Harrellson. These are camp invites.

Forgot about Jorts though, so we should have the guaranteed 13, plus Madness, Varnado, Harris, Jorts and Dozier. 18. Two camp spots left. Probably a PG and something else (Viney is Europe, y'all.)

Marcus Camby tells Newsday he was close to signing with the Heat instead of the Knicks, but, "I knew that it would have been very hard for me to put on that Miami Heat uniform, especially all the battles we used to have back in the days with [Allan] Houston and those guys. I'm happy things worked out."

...Transalation: "Knicks gave me 3-years, $13.2 mil."

The Heat is still giving thought about whether to sign former Knicks centerJosh Harrellson, who worked out for them the past week. Miami Herald

It's just a hunch, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Heat were angling to find the next Joel Anthony so they could get rid of the current version, who is due $3.8 million in each of the next two seasons. In the Heat's "position-less" small-ball approach, the objective is to have everyone on the floor capable of contributing to the offense, an area where Anthony struggles. For another team, Anthony's defensive value might offset what actually is a reasonable price tag for a contributor. South Florida Sun-Sentinel

If that's Ira, then I give it zero chance of coming true. His personnel ideas are always wrong. PEACE.

Just saw a picture of Juwan Howard on my facebook. Going to miss that guy, congrats the Heat for completing the roster spots. I can't wait to see Ray.

LeBron & Durant are back working out with each other in preparation for training camp. Last year they called it "hell week."

Maybe Durant can tell lebron to stop with fading back when he shoots and Lebron can teach durant to be more of a playmaker. Hope they put the video of this one to up.

Dont mind this at all. Maybe LeBron will show Durant how to bulk up and use his strength to his advantage, and maybe Durant will help LeBron master his jump shot. If either happen they'll have even better years this year.
