I would rather develop EC as a 3 who can hold down the 4 in spurts. His abilities are better suited at the 3 (perimeter D, above average handles for a big, 3pt range). He'd be a huge SF but a bit undersized at the 4.
If we keep Amare, going forward we could have a big front-court of EC/Amare/Lopez.
I agree that he needs to stop settling for jumpers and attack the rim more.

That was never confirmed. Just an "insider" from another board.

Maybe but it sounded like they did than Kerr was being demanding by trying to make them find a third team and than once the Cavs put their offer on the table and management was actually considering it they pulled Beasley. So could have or could not, we will never know...

Slightly worried about Wade going to Chicago, but not at all with the Knicks, Wade always blows off Knicks rumors whenever they pop up.

I think Miami's absolute floor in free agency is Amare or Boozer, so I'm really not worried about Wade leaving, but I'd prefer we make a deal now, and if not, I'd definitely hope for Bosh in the summer.

Yeah, just trade our entire starting front court which has been absolutely tearing it up lately. Good idea there.


Yeah, tearing it up alright.....I think you guys overrate sideshow bob a little much. He looks like a gomper out there. Its basically what they were offering us for Amare and add Beasley for Rolo
Beasley>>>>>>>>>RoLo


I don't care what he looks like. He seems to be getting 15/8, 17/10 since he started playing. I'm fine with that. We need that. Amare's been able to focus on offense.

I read on a few articles Riley wanted RoLo, actually.

Robin has one double double on the year and that was against Memphis the other night....
