There used to be a guy around here called chalm downs. If he ever comes back, just ignore him and he will go away.

Not to mention the Refs pathetic no call on Green's double dribble.

Miami could have a good hard look at;
Jonas Valancunius
24mpg, 14/10/2 and 39% from 3 on 1.4 attempts per game. Good 3 point shooting percentage on what is not the most attempts per game but obviously can stretch the floor, he's got terrific size to guard centers, and he's certainly a great rebounder. Only getting paid 14m through 21-22. Which would still leave us with huge cap space.

Nikola Vucevic
17/12/4 and shot 36% from 3 last year on a really good sample size. Here's a guy who's been criminally underrated for a long time, great rebounder, scorer and passer which would fit our system perfectly. He's got enough reputation as a good shooter who will take them so you have to step out. Would definitely be gettable. He is getting paid 24m through 21-22, does that still leave us with a max for Giannis? Magic once offered him to us for Norris Cole.

Other notable options;
Enes Kanter
Aaron Baynes

How is Jonas in the p&r? I know Vucevic is a poor defender.

DWade been operating as a FA, now joining the FO. Working the connections that FOs can’t work, and getting things set up for the next stage of the Heat. December 15 comes around and Riley makes trades out of nowhere, just as DWade takes his place at the Heat round table.

Well played sirs, well played.

This is most resilient Heat team I've seen in a long time. They refuse to lose 2 in a row, they go into yet another OT, and they win in a tough road environment. This team's conditioning is insane as well.

I think its pretty scummy the way the Heat have gone about things with Dion and JJ. We are led to believe that there were problems prior to this season that were covered up but they still put on positive public spin. That is how it has been “leaked” to the beat writers. So its “we were lying to you then but we’re telling the truth now...”.

These are guys that they glowed about in the past and now treat like lepers. It’s not just them of course. Before them the target was Whiteside. There have been other guys in the past that mysteriously fall out of favor and are put in an eternal doghouse.

From a personnel standpoint we don’t need them and the team is playing great, but I hate the inconsistency with which the team treats its players.

Every circumstance is not the same. Lets say JJ and Dion have similar drug addition which both similarly induces them with being out of shape. That's one knock, however, Dion could be a jerk about it and JJ always apologetic about it but both continue to struggle managing their addiction. There is always a point when enough is enough and this is a business. Dion being a jerk (privately and publicly) is gonna cause people to be less likely to cover for him. Now you hear leaks on Dion, and JJ situation stays hush. You never know everything, and it's impossible to keep everything on the hush. Same as the past, Greens problem stayed quiet because he never made a fuss about publicly, Whiteside was an ass privately, publicly and on the court. Only so much the Heat could do keeping it toned down.

Man, this Dion situation is really bad. I had a small hope that time would heal the wounds (hence the 1st suspension) and he would play towards the 2nd half of the season. But now, it is officially a wrap. I truly hope we don't dump other players just to get rid of him; they shouldn't suffer for his dumb ass mistakes.

Hopefully we don't use Winslow to dump JJ and Dion's contract. I really believe in the offseason there could be multiple allstars available. I'd like to save all our assets in case an opportunity arises especially the Bucks situation. The Bucks are a great regular season team but depending on how the matchups end up, I can see them getting dumped in 2nd round. If so Giannis, doesn't sign an extension, he might available and you'd need every single asset in the cupboard. Sit Dion and JJ home but lets not waste assets on them
