    Well they don't have his bird rights which means not only are they unable to offer more money and an additional year, they aren't even able to go over the cap to resign him. They'd have to renounce the rights to D-Wade, which I don't see happening. Maybe he takes a 1 year deal and re-ups? I can't see Riley losing him for nothing.

    exactly.... that's why i see him walking, or getting traded so we can get something for him. he's fun as h--- to watch, but clogs up the lane and is horrible on his feet when it comes to defending pick and rolls or getting out to cover stretch 5 and 4's. i won't be insanely upset if we lose him.

    I don't think you guys should be looking for Howard. He wants a max and he's been a shell of his prime for years now. That back surgery really killed his athleticism. He's a bit like Whiteside tbh, great on defense and the boards but no post game. I'd probably take Deandre over both of them since his deal is much more team friendly.

    Honestly I don't think you guys should be trying to move Winslow either. He's the heir to Wade County.

    yep i would be very disappointed if Winslow got traded... he's the real deal. if he can continue to improve his 3 point shooting he's gonna be great.

    @Poohdini tough loss last night?

    4 OT loss is like a 20 inning loss in baseball, bullpen is shot for like a week after that.

    Yeah one of the best games I've seen all year. Pau didn't even travel with the team to NY tonight. They wore him out towards the end, no subs either way for each OT. Kept putting Pau in pnr situations and he wasn't able to get back to his man (Drummond) quick enough. It's ok though, Bobby Portis should be in line for big minutes tonight. JB set a new career high and D Rose has been quietly playing really well since ditching the mask. Dropped 34 and looked really explosive and fit the entire game.

    clippers/thunder game was pretty exciting last night. durant came through in the clutch and paul made a nice bucket down the stretch as well. but the clips are starting to slip. they're only like 3 games over .500 right now and that's obviously not good enough for a team with their talent level.

    i don't think its a big deal tho----i feel like they'll get back on track sooner than later

    Sounds like he'll play although it's not a sure thing yet. Assuming he does play you're seeing him at a good time, it's been by far his best stretch of the season lately.

    Hope you have fun, should be a special moment.

    I think the Magic, Pistons, Celtics, Hornets & Maybe the Wizards fight it out for the 7th and 8 seeds.
