We'll end up trading the league's leading scorer midseason to NY for their first round pick when Rose goes down.

If Bosh is back we could be the 2 seed (yes people will want to kill me for that but I truly believe that). The only thing we'd really be lacking is depth/bench scoring.

That said in the playoffs when the game slows down we'd definitely miss Wade. Goran is our most capable guy against a strangling defense if we need one person to create a shot, and that's not a good thing.

And if you want to match TJ, why sign a lot of replacements?

10 year age difference between the two. Wade is going to be with his foot out the door at age 38 while TJ will at very least be a productive rotation player.

Thus endeth the lesson.

CB changes everything, If he was back, fully healthy (IF) We'd be floating around the 4-5th seed easily.

I'll rather just trade Dragic.

Nah. We need him to keep the pressure off Hassan and the kids. Also to keep those three point shooters we have active. I can't believe i just typed that while discussing a Miami Heat basketball team

You just can't come to grips about even the remote chance of this team being successful without Wade can you :nonono:


:roll:

No you're right. Wade isn't a big loss, Wayne Ellington and TJ can definitely equal the production. Also of course with Wade gone now the superstar Dragic who Wade was just holding back is going to lead us to the promised land by playing super fast (and no team is going to be able to stop this ever btw). Even though he had a far better team than this in Phx and had a crappy season there.

But you're right, its that I'm invested in this team not being successful without Wade. Not that you can't come to grips with the fact that we lost a lot by letting him leave.

Id say sign Christian Wood or another young prospect that doesnt make a final roster with the 2.9 remaining. Or sign Beno, we will need him when we trade Dragic.

With TJ back and Willie Reed signing, I think we can have a 39-43 season. Ok, we will get our no.13 pick in 2017 draft. Dunno if it's good enough even in this loaded draft.

I think both TJ and Richardson will outperform Dragic by THIS season

Yeah, I said it. Overrated as ****. Dragic is not a good shooter, plays in one speed , overuses his left hand too often to be a real scoring threat. He is only good in transition and sucks against set defenses. Expect him to be a no show in 4th quarters, which benefits to the tanking.

This is only valid if Bosh was to be back though. Without Bosh it wouldnt justify it.

Nobody's sure about our success, we just don't want to pour bleach down our throats and assume its all over yet. Well, most of us.

Nets forced to go after Dion. Serves them right.
