Hassan Whiteside: Road To The Max

I am curious what will happen with the Chris Bosh. Nobody is talking about him in regards to KD, Hassan and free agency. If he can not come back, do we get an injury exception spot on the roster? Not sure how that works, but when Amare was with PHX and sat out full years due to micro fracture, I remember the Suns were able to sign players because of some injury exception by the league.

Regardless of when he comes back, Bosh is probably the most untradable contract in the NBA going forward. But it isn't impossible.

Will be an interesting situation moving forward. Especially if we do well in the PO's.

The way Portland violated us in that last game, it took all the "cocky Heat fan" out of me.

We absolutely can not basically bring back this same team next year. Whether we sign Durant or not I think we're probably gonna end up trading Dragic this offseason if the plan is to resign both Wade & Whiteside as well. I like Dragic, but as of now he's the only tradeable asset that could net us something valuable in return.

I want Wade and Whiteside back. Dragic just hasn't got enough going for him, I'm really disappointed with his lack of leadership with Wade out. Hopefully his contract does make him and interesting asset for another team.

Dragic is 29 years old with 4 more years to go on a CP3 level contract. It will be extremely hard to move him besides the fact he is at his prime and most likely about to decline soon. His contract was a head scratcher for me. Hopefully, he rebounds and does well for at least 2-3 out of the remaining 4 years.

They're gonna resign this dude for 17 -18 mil a year. I think he is the kind of dude who would give this team a discount considering they saved his career. That's really naive to say obvs cause money talks, but hassan is a different dude lol. bouncing around the league and not receiving another solid shot to be a good player seems like something that he ways heavily on. I don't think a team in as good of a position as Miami is is going to offer him more. I can see three or four subpar teams attempt to lure him away with 22 mil a year, but he claims he wants to win.

Breaking up a young core as defensively talented as hass, winslow, j-rich, and tj would be a huge mistake, especially with the lack of draft picks miami has in the next couple of years. With some development, I think you could look at this team in a year or two and be content with the talent pool. Why chase a star - unless kd would seriously come here - and attempt to shake things up if you may already have two (winslow,whiteside) on your roster? I think they needa pay the man. He's probably going to get even better.

In the big picture, Goran and Hassan are a great foundation and we need to keep both. To have stability at the PG and C position is a huge recruiting plus. Any franchise player, be it either KD or LeBron, can play the 2,3 or 4 depending on the situation but PG and C are the positions that a free agent usually offers input on before agreeing on a contract. I feel very confident that having these 2 under long term contracts and their relative youth is something that many teams don't have and therefor plays in our favor.

What a strange idea. Why Goran and not Bosh or Wade ?

Surely Whiteside,Winslow, JRich and TJ are a great foundation.

Not really sure that Goran will be around here even as long as Wade is.

Durrrtysouth · Post #1774 » by **Durrrtysouth** » Wed Apr 6, 2016 5:35 pm

Because of their age. There is stability at the 1 and 5 for many years.

HOT TAKEEEEE: imo, Goran is more important to this team's success than dwade. His style fits this core more, and when hes allowed to be himself, most of the other key players also improve their play. IF the youg guys can carry more of the offensive load next year, I woudlnt mind seeing D-Wade come off the bench. This is coming from someone who adores D-Wade, but he really would be better suited as a 26 min a night playmaker going forward. too many cooks in the kitchen. and yeah, if boshs health holds up, hes definitly incuded in this. his game keeps evolving, and i think itll age well.

Drummond's FT shooting is such a liability. Hassan>

Even with the age difference, Drummond is the worst FT shooter in NBA history... literally. That's never going to get up to the efficiency that Hassan has been shooting since the all star break.

At first its funny but then when you think about it, it makes all the sense in the world. I kinda wish Spo would do the same with Wade when he takes a 3.

lol..but he won't have a chance to call a timeout after a Wade 3, since the opponent would have grabbed the rebound and would be off on a fast break

is it laughable to suggest that whiteside should be 3rd team all nba? Like, I think bougie and AD are gonna be the 2nd and 3rd team center selections, but if its between Drummond and whiteside, shouldn't whiteside get the nod? If you compare per 36 min stats, HW is 17 ppg,15 rpg,4.6 blks with a 25 per and Drummond is at 16 ppg, 15 rpg, 2.5 blks with a 21.5 per. Whitesides team is better, and I think at this point whiteside is the better player. Am I high?
