I know his contract was wack, but i really liked TJ.
tough SOB, smart, very likeable kid.

we found him out of nowhere and he really became a solid nba guard. thats amazing.

good luck TJ, hoping hell come back here on a better contract next time.

JJ probably isn't too pleased about this.

Anyway, awesome, fearless player. Beat the odds by making it to the NBA by working his ass off.

TJ lasted longer than expected. Still a stupid move to match the Nets.

Every since he lost his tooth he stopped attacking the rim

Ain't gonna lie, I'm kinda happy to see TJ gone. His contract was a thorn in my side, and watching him try to create off the dribble was painful.

Having said that, respect to the guy. Came up from nothing to be a solid rotation worthy SG - he'll get more opportunity in PHX, and perhaps a faster play style will allow him to reach that next level. Gives him an opportunity to get another solid contract next summer.

Good night sweet prince :(

He was a nice story until Brooklyn **** it up. I really wish the NBA would adopt a franchise tag like policy to RFA. If a team wants to poison pill your guys, fine, but make them pay 2 first round picks as compensation.

Fare thee well. You provided us with some entertaining moments, but they were too few and far between. Hopefully Phoenix lets him flourish. However, I can't remember a player leaving the Heat and suddenly becoming a revelation elsewhere. We tend to extract the best from players, which suggests this roster is pretty poor.

That makes no sense especially for us as a franchise. We poach teams for star players, like Pat said we don’t care about the draft.

At the end of the day we voluntarily chose to match that contract and let be real we took advantage of the low cap hit for two years so we can’t say a world. Especially with our recent moves like giving money to Dion :roll:

Good guy and a good player. One of those guys that got overpaid and now his contract makes him toxic. He is a hard worker and I wouldn’t mind him returning for what he is, a min contract scrappy player.
