He plays Defense and He likes to play Defense. He knows his Role!


he absolutly doesn't know his role. mostly because he has a very low BBIQ.
yes, he plays defense and is athletic, but that's it.
the problem is, he also wants to be a bigger part of the offense, constantly brakes plays and takes stupid shots.
it wasn't without a reason, that he demanded MLE money, but no team in the league was willing to give him this kind of money. if you get him for a half MLE contract, fine.

I laugh at this BBIQ idea.
I remember when the Dolphins were perennial contenders

He plays Defense and He likes to play Defense. He knows his Role! And he Wants to be a MIAMI HEAT!!!! He shoots a nice Corner 3, something we are missing and he is Young and would not Cost us the Bank. It maybe that G-State did us a Favor by not playing him this year, he will not be asking for that much since his stock should be Low.


He is just ok game time. Let's not make him the next Tyshaun Prince now. He can't even get on the court with Golden State. The kid is talented and athletic but it is well documented that he lacks in the IQ dept.

I wouldn't be opposed to adding him to our roster as a free agent next summer so he can play off the bench for us; however, to trade one of our assets to acquire him is not a good move IMO.

Compared to Mikael, Bobby Flay has a very high BBQ.

And yeah, I'm not that high on Pietrus either. He's a good athlete, and that's it. I don't feel there's really anything he does...running fast, jumping high, shadowing and chasing around opposing scorers, hitting occasional open jump shots...that we can't get from Dorell.

After the drubbing we got from the more active and energetic Bulls last post season, I wanted us to go into the offseason with the sole priority of adding exceptional physical specimens, which is why I was alright with letting go of an aging EJ and slow-footed Kapono, and was in support of signing a pogo-legged Smush Parker. But now after the disaster this season has been so far, it's obvious that we need to start the process of slowly but surely re-acquiring some actual, tangible skill.

we need someone at SF that gets garbage points, like putbacks and stuff..theres only so many shots to go around..thats the problem with Wright, he needs a play ran for him to score, mostly the corner jump shot.

its a great thing that Riley's plan to fix the Heat CANNOT include dealing our 08 1st rounder at the trade deadline. Because we owe it to Minny if we make the playoffs, it cant be dealt until we are eliminated. (the draft)

if that wasnt the case I have a feeling Riley would try to nab Kidd using expirings (JWill, RDavis, Zo) young players (Wright and/or Cook) and that pick.

That's a good point. I always thought Riley could make the trading of the pick conditional on us being in the lottery to avoid that conflict, but then we would owe Minnesota the following years pick, and you can't trade draft picks in consecutive years.

Yes. I'd put a silver spoon in her mouth if you know what I mean.

This was my favorite episode, with the dude with the weird unibrow and Erin acting all sexy and husky and red and sweaty.

I like how all the girls back then had small natural breasts. My preference overall.

if I know the words to Silver Spoons off the top of my head, does that mean there is something wrong with me?

It truly is amazing to see how far Miami's come since these days. In many ways, we're looking ahead in the same way.

Wow! This is my post 7yrs ago! Cant even remember it until this revival.

As long as Riley is with the Heat. Expect the best!
