Oden say he's ready to play. Mentions only Miami

Oden has interest in the Heat if they ever were to be interested.

“Obviously, if the Heat wanted him, who wouldn’t want to play for the Heat?’’ Conley said of the defending champions. “That goes without saying. They have roster spots and a need (at center).

Kelly dwyer is on it. I would love to have a him on this team (especially riley). Unless we amnesty someone like joel anthony or mike miller he would have to sign for the vet min. Such a shame that we have no money to pay him at least half his market value..

Oden: "I'm taking my ailments to South Beach."

Heat Nation: "Meh?"

my thoughts on the offseason

I said at the start of the offseason that my dream would be

1) One of Allen/Nash
2) Lewis
3) Oden

July 1st

I wrote:Realistically, I don't think this can happen, and don't expect to get either Ray Allen or Steve Nash, but my wish list would be one of those two, plus Rashard Lewis and Greg Oden on 2-year min deals.


Lewis and Oden weren't on anyone's radar at that point in time. I'm a prophet.

Imagine anyone trying to score on this lineup: Wade | Battier | Lebron | Bosh | Oden

Demolition.

Dude is done. If he signs here, he will basically have conned Mickey out of money. Though if there's a guy who would take a chance like this, it's Pat. He is the one who gave Shaun Livingston his chance back in the league, afterall

His body has structural flaws, he's more than likely going to suffer another gruesome looking injury, he hasn't really had that much time to rehab since the microfracture surgery.
