Mario Chalmers has evolved into the perfect pg that Miami needs.

Strong defensive skills.
Good passing.
Can drive and create.

Does just enough, not too much, not too little.

Yup. And the thing that makes him so valuable to this team is his ability to be productive without needing the ball in his hands that much... A LOT of great PGs in the NBA can't do that (see: Steve Nash on the Lakers).

To be fair Chalmers doesn't have nearly the responsibility that a lot of great PGs do but I agree he's a good fit for this team and finds ways to be effective with the ball not in his hands as much as other PGs. I know before the season started he said he wants to make All-Defensive team and lead the league in steals, may not happen but it's good to see him looking to make improvements in his game.

A little disappointed with how bad UD has looked with his shot. I thought it was supposed to be better this year after having a full year to get himself right physically. I know it's only been two preseason games and one real game, but he is 1-8 from the field since getting back. He may just be washed up at this point, but if he could become a legitimate threat on offense again, that would make this team completely unguardable.
