    They need to find a taker for Whiteside / Dragic. Dragic is easier to move, but it WILL cost Miami to move either player.

    The Heat are basically going to be more ****ed than we are if this trade goes through.

    If this can make you feel better, it made me so:
    Rockets just trade a very good wing for one of the best shooter and sixth man of the year in Gordon, a young athletic big man having tons of potential to be better next year!
    And Tucker stays!

    Morey sure hopes so.

    But Butler's basically gone to an awful east team, which is going to be even worse after this trade. Butler must be nuts if he thinks the Heat have any chance of the playoffs any time soon.

    Riley gonna run after Cuban eventually.

    Regardless, don't get your hopes up at this point guys, even if they won't be able to complete this move, i think Butler would probably go to L.A with the Clippers or the Lakers, if not to the Knicks...

    Someone Photoshop Morey holding an iPad over his head outside Butler's house.

    Jokes aside, I'd move on from Jimmy even if he were still available. He's clearly not interested in Houston.

    And people thought our trade for Butler was a mess.

    The Heat are basically giving away their whole team just to get a diva like Butler in. Lol

    Dude wtf LOL. So he just wants to wallow in mediocrity/lower tier status for the prime of his career? I see him probably trying to take less and win a chip when he's old and broken down...now he apparently just wants money. Can't blame a guy for that...but if he wants to win he would've gone with a place that would've at least given him a chance to...Miami is just a cash dig with no chance to do anything.

    At least he stays East.

    The asking price was too much IMO unless we unloaded Paul.

    It will get done. And if it doesn't JB will go to LA. He does not want to play here. Let it go and enjoy the green-house affect people.


    It's over.
