I decided to make it a little less silly and a little more useful. At least one person got to see the joke though.

<this is tough but i'm taking Norris Cole to Cleveland so that Khem Birch can play for the Miami Heat <3

Seth Curry would be a good fit next to Wade since Wade does all the play making already. I'm sure he can eventually learn to play better defense on the Heat.

Cole & Hamilton are definitely "winning".

It's easiest to dispose of White #7; it's best to replace him with Khem Birch with Whiteside's emergence. Cole can be moved elsewhere either in a package or a multi-team deal along with potentially Danny Granger or even Josh McRoberts.

I don't care too much for Birch to be honest,but I would get rid of Justin Hamilton in a heartbeat for him.

Then find a way to trade Cole,Granger,or even Shawne Williams if it means clearing up an additional roster spot.

Hamilton is an example of a D-League player who hasn't made the jump. He had 18 dbl-dbls in 39 games last year at Sioux Falls and a PER of almost 21. This year for the Heat in the Summer League his PER was above 25.

In actual NBA play this year he played 22 games and started 5, made 61 points in about 280 minutes, 48 rebounds (24 off, 24 def). The PER of 8.7 is just a bit above Napier's and Granger's and below Haslem & Cole. The real problem is that he needed to come in for Bosh and we all saw how much the team dropped off. It was horrible to watch.

7 feet tall but doesn't impose physically... It's bizarre, right? He weighs 245 lbs!

He's supposedly a great 3 point shooter. For us, he shot 28%. So little data though 5 for 18.

He was a 2nd round pick in 2012-3 who we traded for (drafted by 76ers 15th). We stashed him overseas in Latvia and Croatia in 2012-3 (similar to James Ennis) and last year he was a star at Sioux Falls.

Yeah, you really made my night with that one. :lol:

Voted for Cole and Hamilton to gtfo. Granger can too, but I'm not sure anybody wants him.

I'm not sure what additions to our roster I would like to see, but if we're serious about making some noise in the playoffs, I think Blatche and one of the Nuggets' Afflalo or Nelson would be near perfect. If we're building for the future, I would go with Curry and Birch.

Granger & Williams have the least amount of upside. At least Cole is useful despite the lack of scoring & PG IQ. Williams doesn't even play anymore & Granger does little to nothing out there.

Williams is also 2nd on the team in total fouls committed despite not playing lately.

delanka · Post #13 » by **delanka** » Mon Feb 9, 2015 12:59 pm

just waived Cole, Hamilton and Granger!

Post #14 » by **DefenseWins** » Mon Feb 9, 2015 2:44 pm

Williams is the new james jones so it's whatever

Cole and Granger have no future with this team

Hamilton I don't know what they are doing with him. I always thought he should be back up PF and Spo FINALLY does it. It didnt look too bad, better than Granger. He even did a little play making and he gives us size.

I changed it to six options now.

don't see the heat just cutting a guy like cole who has been with us for years. I think they'll keep him to the end of the season then just let him walk.

yeah, definitely see this happening ASAP.

Anyway, I'll never understand this fascination with Birch.

I didnt want to be the one to say it. I agree. BUt honestly Id rather have Shawn Jones if we are replacing Haslem.

Haslem is our team captain.
