I thought I made it clear that if we're getting Cousin, Wade back and a chance to get KD or DeRozan. So then, I agree losing Whiteside even with a small chance of signing KD or DeRozan coz we have Cousin. Just like I said above, I agree to trade him but with qualifications, otherwise stick with him and hope he sign's back close to Tristan Thompson or Draymond Green's contract.
That just doesn't make any sense to me. We're not getting any major assets for Whiteside. His lack of bird rights basically makes his trade value next to nothing.
Thats really one of my worries. That is why if given the opportunity to have a good deal like getting Cousin, you grab it... My other worries is, if he resigns and takes a lot of the Heat cap space that will impede the progress of the team. I will say it again, this current team will not beat the Cavs. Heat need to add a free agent like KD.
So if we don't resign him we will be losing him for nothing.
That is a big possibility.. like you said, Miami doesn't have full bird rights. Even though Heat has cap space, he can choose to sign elsewhere he likes.
The thinks that is good next summer, the free agent situation is loaded at center. So its a matter of priorities..
Do you max Whiteside instead of Durant, if given the opportunities???
