Sorry, I got tired of typing NOOOO! these days and got lazy. 8-)

I have officially given up on our point guard situation.. so I don't really care anymore.

But yeah, let's not sign Rio and let me take my chance with Shabazz & Cole Train!!!

The problem with Rio isn't just that he's terrible. I think we'd all agree he's better than nothing. It's that it means that Napier likely won't see playing time and the Heat don't sign a SG or a SF. I'd almost prefer not signing Chalmers just because it means Napier develops that much faster.

Source: Mario Chalmers has verbally committed to re-signing with the Heat. Deal expected to be 2yrs / $6M total. Pat Riley slowly building.

This guy seems like he knows a thing or two. Broke the Lionel Hollins story a couple days before others. What do you guys think of the signing?

Well dam....

If we get Rio for cheap fine whatever but I would like to see something different.

Man, I've wondered this for a while. Why does it say you're suspended yet you post here all the time? lol

I got suspended during the 2013 ECF after I argued with a Pacers fan when UD flagrant fouled Hansborough for what he did to Wade. I basically said that UD was gonna **** him up lol.

I do think Mario will be back. I doubt we want to use the TPE on a point guard in lieu of a guy like Morrow. And I don't think we'll find someone better than Super Nintendo for the vet min.

A lot of people at the start of last season and at the end of last season thought we needed to get younger and more athletic. Napier, Ennis, McRoberts, even Granger (replacing James Jones or Shard, lol) all accomplish those goals. That's what re-tooling looks like, no?

Backup PG sounds more adequate for Rio.

Steve Blake or Goggle Man don't want a ring?

Jameer can be scratched from our lists, he wants 3-5m.

He can be ball boy, or he can wave a fan at LeBron when it's hot, or baby sit his future daughter, or even shine LeBron rims, or even wash his car, carry his bags, and getting LeBron lunch.... Chalmers would be a great fit for this organization for these roles

Rebounding, Blocked Shots, Paint Defense...... come on man. I love Bosh, but he needs to go.........

Dwight and defense doesn't belong in the same sentence, maybe back a few years ago when he was in the Magic before his back problems, but as a Rocket everyone was having their way on the paint, their defense was better with Asik.

What? Dwight is not Orlando Dwight but he is still damn good on defense. Houston sucks on defense overall because their wings and PGs suck defensively except for Beverly. Team defense is a combination of your perimeter players reducing easy penetration to the hoop and then rim protection. It doesn't matter how good of a rim protector you are, if your perimeter defense is porous you can't do much. A player only has 6 fouls after all.

all better than wario Chalmers. I don't even have to type the amount of bonehead plays and times he killed our momentum

Average. Not too shabby. Not too good. But for $6m per, I would rather have Marvin Williams. McBob is the superior shooter whereas Marv is more of a 2-way shooter-cum-defender.

I can't believe that even the more respectable posters here continue to throw rio under the bus. He played like **** in the finals (a 5 game sample) and all of a sudden 3 mil per yr for him is bad? Ben phucking gordon got 4.5 mil for christ's sake. And some people here were asking for Isaiah Thomas

So since Ben Gordon is overpaid, Miami should overpay players too? Is this a new trend?

Hope you are kidding about a 5 game sample. Because it was clearly the entire playoffs. Maybe he had 3 acceptable games out of 20 playoff games this year, maybe.
6.4 PPG 3.6 APG 2.3 RPG 1.5 TOV 26.8MPG of pure garbageness. I'm not even including the horrible lazy crybaby defense or overall **** attitude here.

Garbage!
