I like the move. Him at 15 minutes is better than Pittman at 15 minutes.

Follow up with Diaw and we are set.

Thanks for the heads up boogydown.

As long as he can actually catch the ball, I'm happy.

Very happy to see this happen. I don't expect a lot, but it'll certainly help, far more than Pittman. I've been reading that Diaw was Tony Parker's best man, so I have to imagine he'll be very tempted to play fo the Spurs, who also need size.

I wouldn't mind seeing them sign Sheed as well.

Good move i guess, i thought Ryan Hollins would give the Heat something they don't have, which is length.

I would add him also. Cut both Howard and Curry.

I say leave Howard out of respect and let him have a ring this season and retire in peace. 8-)

Curry on the other hand......

Juwan won't be going anywhere (he better not ****ing be here next year, but that's another story). All in all, I definitely drop Curry if it means Hollins (or Anthony Carter). I doubt the inquiry will be made though. For some ungodly reason, we seem really committed to this Curry reclamation project.

I remember back in 2005, there was some debate among Heat fans as to who the better draft pick would be -- Wayne Simien or Ronny Turiaf? Both were 4-year players from strong basketball schools. Both were hard workers with high character. Both were relatively unspectacular prospects with similar limitations. And now, seven years later, we can have both. Let's have our cake and eat it too.

Oh, and I like this move.

Is he healthy now??? It would suck to finally get someone who can help and just have him on a suit. Any updates on this?

as long as he plays
