Kawhi kinda screams Heat player in just about every facet. Outside of the weird smoke bomb he’s pulling on San Antonio.
Would give my left nut to get him in a Heat jersey.

Re: Around the NBA 36.0 - Bye Bye, Butterfree
Jabari Parker 'Uncertain' About Future With Bucks:
"Honestly, it's uncertain," Parker said about his future in Milwaukee, according to The Washington Post's Tim Bontemps. "I know that, just looking from afar, (the Bucks) will be fine."
Parker, the No. 2 pick in 2014, returned to the lineup in February after missing a full year of action while recovering from his second ACL tear. Before the campaign started, he turned down the team's reported offer of about $54 million over three years.
He returned to a team that had climbed to fifth place without him. He has since eased back in with averages of 11.9 points on 48.8 percent shooting from the field and 38.5 percent from deep, to go along with 4.3 rebounds and 1.9 assists in a career-low 22.7 minutes per game off the bench.
In short, his bet on himself may not be paying off.
"But I just have to see what's going to happen with my future, and that's uncertain. But I know for them, they'll be fine regardless. They've been doing well."
Whiteside unsure of future with Heat:
Hassan Whiteside isn't a happy camper.
After totaling just 20 minutes of playing time during the Miami Heat's 110-109 overtime loss at home to the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday night, Whiteside - who played in his second game after missing nine with a hip flexor - was fuming over his team once again sitting him because the opposition elected to go small in its frontcourt.
"Man, it's annoying, you know. Why we matching up? We got one of the best centers in the league. Why we matching up?," said Whiteside afterward, according to The Sun Sentinel's Ira Winderman. "A lot of teams don't have a good center. They're going to use their strength.
"It's bull. It's really bull, man. There's a lot of teams that could use a center. ****. That's bull."
Whiteside didn't see the floor again after the 3:55 mark of the third quarter against Brooklyn, as Miami was denied a chance to clinch a berth in the playoffs after failing to qualify last year. He finished with 14 points, six rebounds, two blocks, and a steal on 5-of-10 shooting.
"No. I don’t know if it is because of a minutes restriction or what. The minutes have been like that all year. It’s just really frustrating and it's been frustrating," said Whiteside when asked if it's time to go higher up in the organization to seek answers about his playing time.
"It's tough. I don't know, man, it's crazy. I don't understand it."
His frustrations can be traced back to the start of the regular season. Whiteside missed a stretch of five games from Oct. 21 through Oct. 30 with a bone bruise in his knee and was kept on what he considered to be a minutes restriction upon returning, which he couldn't explain.

Nah I don't think Miami could put a competitive offer. Just for comparison's sake, Wolves gave up a top-10 pick and two young players for Butler, who's a top 10-15 player. Kawhi is top 3-5, so a team would have to give up significantly more that that. Don't think Miami could compete with teams that could give up lottery picks (Boston with LaKings picks, Cle with Nets pick, etc).
Yeah, Boston could probably come up with something appealing with their picks and young players with upside. Scary thought.
Cle, nah.
Depends on the lottery
Still think it's between LA and SA

I think Mil will finish 6th, Heat 7th, WizArds 8th.
I'm not sure we can beat Boston even without Kyrie. Don't like this Heat team tbh

Josh Jackson has been a beast for pretty much the past two or three months. Kid is gonna be good.

yeah I thought he was pretty underwhelming early on but has been balling of late.
he's just one of many examples of how we should not be so quick to judge talents. fultz will probably come around too
