Cool!

This team in the off-season needs to find a few younger legs to keep this run going. I'm not saying a rookie but some guys that can run. A dream off-season would be Lewis & Shane retiring with Miami picking up, Wesley Johnson/Marvin Williams and Ben Gordan type SG/PG.

We don't need Lewis to retire. His contract is up. Pass on Ben Gordon as the primary backup to Wade -- who will surely miss time. That is awful. This isn't the Ben Gordon of 5 years ago. That guy is basically done.

Marvin Williams isn't an awful option for cheap.

What this team will be able to do in the offseason will depend completely on the big 3 contract situations.

He will be WAY too expensive and I don't think he will be willing to take a big pay cut.

TBH he's worth more than that. Tax payer's exception seems fair, no?

I'm not opposed to veterans providing a spark off the bench for this team, but not at the expense of young legs. We need a consistent balance of youth and experience on this team. If we're able to convince Vince Carter to leave a good situation in Dallas (might be harder than you think), we had better counter his signing with some young talents as well. I don't want a repeat of this season where our guys are basically forcing LeBron to drop 30+ every night in addition to 11 assists and 10 rebounds just so we have a chance.

This roster cannot return with the same guys. We need youth. If we sign VC, let's bring in Xavier Henry as well. Both will help us immensely in limited roles. We need to build for the future while remaining a championship contender in the present. As far as Lewis is concerned, I don't know. There has to be someone out there that can push Lewis into Juwan Howard's role two years ago. We need more help in that department.

VC is old. I like how he's played the past two years, but that's no guarantee that he'll continue to play that way. Just like our older guys who used to be good, when that decline comes it comes pretty hard and fast.
