Maybe this is what UD wants tho. His camp is the one putting all this information out.

which is weird, was/is ud expecting something more than the min? can cle offer anything more than the min?

ud isn't a ring chaser. it just doesnt make a lot of sense.

Tim Reynolds was the one that said it's his camp. There always has to be an end. Maybe the end is now for the UD era in Miami. Wish he would just retire and join the coaching staff. We all know he has a job waiting for him in the front office.

It will be sad to see UD go but we will move on. I'm pretty sure no matter what happens this year , UD will be back to the 305 in some role.

i dont mind him being on the roster, he is the life and blood of the team imo. when UD says something, winslow, jrich, tj, mcgruder, whiteside, everyone, listens. and tbh, some of our guys need a babysitter

He can do that on the coaching staff. And if he wants to mix it up in practice with them he can do that as well but Haslem is no longer an NBA caliber player and with the way this team is built he should not be taking a roster spot.

James Johnson will take over the UD locker room enforcer roll.

which is crazy. unless, we ask him to retire/move on and him threatening cle is his way of saying i want to play(?) this season.

wade leaving was a surprise but not a shock. UD leaving miami to play for anyone let along CLE would be shocking to me.

coming from his camp means he wants to play or wants more money, the vet min is 2.0mil now, thats fair to basically babysit hassan whiteside and teach bam how to be a professional

you don't think he can develop a 3pt shot?

:wink:

Its possible that the HEAT believe JJ can fill that role now.

Good point, he may have negotiated some extra money by agreeing to discipline the youngins

only reason i can think of ud going there, wade said he will be there at some point

We gave UD his thank you payment last year. I really hope he's not trying to force us to give him the MLE.

Great seats to be sure. And you get paid to sit there instead of paying to sit there.

Give him that and tell him it's his last check.

And LOL at leBron wanting him...LBJ hated Miami
So much that now he wants the Cavs to become the Heat

Clipper fan here.

Clips are meeting with Willie Reed today. Can you guys give me a primer on his game? If he did sign with Clips, it would be for 2.5M a year.

He's a good backup and played well for us in a few starts with Whiteside was injured. But it will take a lot more than 2.5 mil to get him. If he was willing to take that, he won't be a FA now.

Steal for you guys.

Very good rebounder and hustle player. Never stops moving on either end of the court. I wanted the Heat to re-sign him back. Still raw on the offensive end but on D he's pretty decent.
