I wonder how he feels about Miami. He was very positive about being here in preseason, about coming in to this culture and being fostered if i remember correctly. Wonder if he is totally soured or learned anything being on the bench

He was very positive, that they gave him a one year contract at about $4.5 mil and a real chance at playing time. No other team was probably offering more then a deep bench role at a really cheap rate. What was he going to say about Miami? "I'm here, because they returned my agents calls"

Also, the way his career has gone he has to be upbeat because he can't really afford to tick any franchises off.

Hopefully he finds the slice of humble pie he needs here and spends the rest of the year working on his shooting. If he had improved his shot and shown some interest in defending like he was asked to then he would have been getting a lot more PT.

No ill will, I just hope he gets the things he needs to make the same type of self-reflective decisions Hassan made on his way back.
