Are we going to really piss away the potential of Briante Weber or Rod McGruder for Waiters? Makes no sense at all.
G: Tyler Johnson, Josh Richardson, Briante Weber, Goran Dragic, Dion Waiters, Rodney McGruder, Wayne Ellington
F: James Johnson, Justise Winslow, Derrick Williams, Josh McRoberts, Udonis Haslem, Luke Babbitt, Okaro White, Chris Bosh
C: Hassan Whiteside, Willie Reed, Stefan Jankovic
Ok, with Waiters signing, McGruder loses his chance, right? We have to keep Weber or we're stupid. Okaro White and Jankovic are probably for later anyhow. That leaves us 15 guys.

I don't see Waiters instead of McGruder as an advantage. If Weber is out instead, nothing makes sense anymore. The kid is very gifted and was a steal (& is on a great contract.)
I hope he proves me wrong.
I'm afraid it's much worst then you even imagine.
It's not Weber I'm worried about, it's TJ and Rich.
You think Waiters signed here to be the 4th guard? you're very mistaken. He expected and maybe was promised a big role, you can bet on that.
How much plating time this leaves for TJ and Rich? That's the question that should give Heat fan nightmares.
