That's a lot less than I was expecting.
Looking forward to our next move!

not bad, i was expecting 13 mill... if marvin williams gets 2/14, Deng deserves 2/20 without a doubt

He has a player option next year, at least he can prove himself for more money.

Bulls fan here in peace, that is a steal of a deal for Deng in that its only 2 years. If he breaks down in a few years which was our major concern it won't kill you.
I think Deng will be a really good fit for your team, one of his biggest weaknesses besides not really being able to create on his own is shooting but having a guy like Bosh who can stretch the floor is something we never had. Assuming you guys continue to play a kind of "positionless" style I think he'll be very successful, he's a terrific rebounder and an underrated passer and he has the length to guard a lot of 4s. Wish him the best of luck and its going to feel very weird seeing him in a Heat jersey :/

Great deal. Most importantly we have a solid defender to guard the opposing teams best wing.

Welcome to Miami.
Playing the Bulls the past few years, could never have imagined Luol in a Heat jersey.

Fantastic deal from us. Get a very good player to bring us thru the last years of D Wade whilst staying competitive as well as giving us cap space for 2016. Riley does it again!

I honestly thought he would demand more
It looks like he couldn't get what he wanted
He turned down 3/30mil from Bulls and I thought maybe he wouldn't take a 2/20mil, but it is a bit more money cause of no income tax (third year with bulls still more money)
He might be trying to prove himself to get big money in 2016, Riley probably convinced him that way. Who knows.
Things aren't looking so bad after all. Atleast we are playoff bound (in the east lol)

Solid with Deng. Too bad Miami is committed to Haslem because they could get Boozer for the minimum in a few days.

Absolutely perfect. Awesome deal. Great fit. Assuming Wade at about 15 per and UD getting a little over 2, how much cap space is left? One more big move and we're in this.

Compared to other FA deals like Marvin Williams, Jordan Hill, etc. this is a steal at that price and length. Clearly keeping 2016 in mind. Love it!
