OffSeason Free Agent Thread...Let's build a DYNASTY! 3.0

[NorrisColeWorld]

Unless Dwight signs with the Hawks looks like hes moving out East.So really we only need a Center for the chance that we play the Lakers in the finals or if Roy Hibbert improved dramatically lol.Im really not worried,I think its us Vs Clippers or Thunder next year.

I said it before, but we should have drafted festus ezeli

Please let Riley get a meeting with this man.

[GetMoney]

his agent will make sure riley doesnt get to speak to him

[narmerguy]

NO, just no. Let's not even start this discussion. No way no one bids at least the minimum on him, particularly since every team in the league knows Miami would be there to gobble him up. For as much as centers are getting paid, some team under the cap will scoop him up at a heavy discount.

omg you are such a pessimist! rage rage rage! im so mad at u !

Yeah.. players might love Miami Heat and Riley.....but their agents probably hate our guts

[NorrisColeWorld]

Us not getting Haywood through this process is common sense,us "not getting Allen" was pessimistic assumption.You really are just making a fool out of yourself at this point.

[Jan_Sobieski]

Let see if that big man trickles down to Heat lol Its a long shot but worth it if it happens

I want! I want! I want!

honestly every time i've watched Haywood play in the last couple seasons he's looked pretty terrible... I don't know if it's ongoing injuries or what but his mobility is terrible and his ability as a finisher is questionable. It's not out of the ballpark to think that Kwame Brown is his equal or even better nowadays. Remember in 2010 when he was like the first Riley met with face to face and would have probably been part of a plan B had we not signed the big 3? Thank goodness plan A worked out

[G.cracker]

I'd love Heywood Jablome. If only because the nba won't let us heat fans get our free BJs from those two skanks.

Decent rebounder, defender, can catch, dunk and has size. What else do we need? His no Howard but were just looking for someone better than Joel which he is.

[SweetTouch]

Haywood is pretty much a lil taller Perkins, can guard Centers thats about it

would work for vet min

[MartyCONLONNN]

yeah if he falls through it would be a decent pickup.. im just saying he's not as good as his name sounds, he still ends up as a situational C splitting backup minutes with Joel probably. But we could definitely use a big body like his to shore up the front line. Unfortunately I think he gets bid on.

[TrueRain]

We're not getting him so I don't even see the point in entertaining the thought

[FlashFlare]

LOL someone will pick Haywood off waivers just to make sure he doesn't fall to us Watch Dan Gilbert do it

Great video of Ray Allen.

Good Story for those; I was talking to a friend who worked for Boston Celtics when Ray signed with them. He said when he first arrived the first few weeks the Basketball OP's had to rearrange the timeline of events because of Ray. Ray would show up so early to practice that at first the gym was close or the lights were off. The guy was a workaholic. That his been around the game for a long time and his never seen a player work as much as Ray. He said till today he is still working that hard.

Exactly. It's just like last year. At first we were going to get Gasol, Chandler or Nene. Then we were willing to settle for Dalembert or Kwame Brown. But we ended up with Eddy Curry.
