What's wrong with the Heat???
The Miami Heat look very confused on the floor. Nobody knows what there doing out there anymore. Shaq lost his balls from the divorce and just sits on thesideline looking depressed, we're trying to turn Ricky Davis into Reggie Miller, putting him out on the perimeter trying to hit 3s when his game is more DWade like driving to the hole and pulling up for 15ft jumpers - not good to have 2 players with similar playing styles, Dorrell Wright is starting

- not deserving and needs to play off the bench to be that change of pace and hustle guy,J Will needs to hang up the sneakers and call it quits - this guy is always injured with some *******t injury & why is he always pulling up for 3s whenthere is nobody under the basket and his ball distribution is as good as Marburys, & the only 2 out there that are playing some ball are Wade and Haslem.

The Heat are abusing Wade and frankly im tired of it. They have this dude doing everything - playing the PG position, so he brings up the ball which he getsfull court pressed about 75% of the time then he either creates his own shot, gets doubled and tripled teamed, when he drives to the hole he usual gets fouledhard, and he has to create shots for his teammates. The guy seems to be the only player out there for us. He plays PG, SG and sometime SF all at the same time.I'm just saying at the end of the year this guy will have nothing left in the tank. And you can tell he's tired because on defense he doesn't guardthe best player and he plays loose of defense coinciding open shots and not getting up on the offensive player.

Reality???
With all that said the Heat suck and are at the bottom of the Eastern Conference as I type this. Yea there is half the season to go and we can turn thisaround, but still if we some how miraculously have an outside chance to make the playoffs i want no part of it. There is no way we break into the top 5 or 6,which means if we do get in they we must face the Pistons and Celtics and that is going to be the 2nd year in a row that we get sweep in the playoffs.

Hope????
Missing the playoffs, the Heat are going to be in the Lottery. We are probably going to finish in the bottom 5 of the entire NBA giving us a good shot at thetop players in the upcoming draft. This draft should be loaded with young, promising talent that the Heat deeply need. Players like Beasley, Rose, Mayo,Gordon, Bayless, Hibbert, & Jordan. Anyone one of these players should be good for the Heat, but right now we need NEED over best prospect. We need a PG& SM and some depth at the C position to back up Shaq and hopefully take over we he hangs them up. Hopefully we come up with the pick that will lock upDerrick Rose 6-3 PG that this team desperately needs. Someone to get Shaq and Wade the ball.


Future????
Apart of Riley's master plan was trading Walker away and freeing up that big contract. Now with R Davis is an expiring contract, and along with J Willsexpiring contract, Mournings and a few other small expiring contracts the Heat will be a major player in this years free agent market. A free agent market thatconsist of S MARION, R ARTEST, G ARENAS, E BRAND, C MAGGETTE, & B DAVIS. The Heat should make a good run at S Marion, but if we miss out on him then AntawnJaminson is a player that we must land. Jaminson is the best fit for our team, unselfish, rebounds, hits the open jumper, has a post up game, and mostimportantly plays without the ball.

Championship????
So the Heat's lineup 2008-09 should look like:
Starting PG: Derrick ROSE 1st round pick
t1_rose.jpg

Pure PG that the Heat have been desperately needed


Backup PG: Chris QUINN
act_chris_quinn.jpg

Solid backup PG, that can really shoot the ball; has range and a 3pter


Starting SG: Dwayne WADE
d-wade.jpg

Has everything, except a 3pt shot, but it should be around sooner than later


Backup SG: Daequan COOK
daequancook.jpg

Pure Shooter, that can hit it from anywhere on the floor


Starting SF: Shawn MARION F.A.
7spurs.jpg

Perfect SF that can do everything on the floor, including guarding the best player on the floor, getting 10+ Rebs, and ability to score


OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Starting SF: Antwan JAMINSON F.A.
act_antawn_jamison.jpg

Great offensive skills, ability to play with other All-Stars, 3pt range


Backup SF: Dorell WRIGHT
hpg0506_wright_060103.jpg

Rebounding Machine, Showing ability to hit a constant 17ft jump shot


Starting PF: Udonis HASLEM
act_udonis_haslem.jpg

Mr. Hustle, goes after and gets every rebound, constant 15ft jumpshot, becoming a clutch player


Backup PF: Joey DORSEY 2nd round pick
t1_dorsey_ap.jpg

High energy guy to come off the bench, dirty work, block shooter


Starting C: Shaq O'NEAL
shaqDunks.jpg

Not the same Shaq, but can still get you 15 & 10, but has to be more involved and stay out of foul trouble


Backup C: Mark BLOUNT
Act_marc_blount.jpg

Spread the floor Center, can shoot inside the 3pt line, good change of pace from Shaq

And did you read what I wrote....

I said the Heat will try and sign a big name free agent this summer and hopefully it will be Marion or Jamison; that is why I have both of them there eitheror
 
Hope is a wonderful thing. You are right about Wade they are shortening his career. JWill is a backup at best along with Shaq these days and hopefully his egocan realize that.

Honestly, if the Heat somehow get a higher pick they need to get Beasley. Rose may be too close to Wade-type.
 
jamison plays zero D, and I watch almost all wizards game, don't kid yourself, you would have a better toine walker who doesn't shimmy
 
How the hell do you know they'll get all those players?? Because they will be so impressed with the Heat's current winning and the fact that Shaq, whois already in serious decline, will be yet another year older?
 
even with the expiring contracts, i don't think the heat have enough money to entice the top free agents next summer.

The Heat's two biggest needs are PG and SF. First of all the Heat are not the worst team in the league so the 1st pick is a little of a reach, unlesswe get really lucky cause Michael Beasley will be the 1st pick. Second the Heat are going to have a shot at multiple SFs this summer, so we should be able tofill that spot through free agency. Third, Rose being too Wade like? Not at all. The Heat have no one to bring the ball up the floor and hand it off to Shaqand Wade. That's all he needs to do and hit an open jumper.
 
Ima Heat fan to man but thats way to many ifs there tha facts are they need to rebuild and will be lucky to scrape anything good out of this season if theyeven get into tha playoffs I mean are they gonna even get out tha first round.

Theyve got to have an overhaul at the end of the season we all know this its a shame they didnt do something last off season and loyal Heat fans have to watchthis all season.

I for one am really sad at the demise and decline of JWill wether its the injurys hes had or wether he just doesnt want it enough anymore,people forget how oldhe is though remember he was 25 his rookie year so hes already 33 this season its just a shame that somebody with as gooda skills as him has fallen so fast.

Now I know you guys might think im crazy saying this but isnt Steve Nash a more efficiant polished version of the 99-2002 Kings JWill but with better defenseof course lol J could never lock anybody down.Nash plays in that uptempo style and has got the flashy passing and 3 point game that makes me think of the 2that way of course Nash is a better leader its just a shame J wasnt more productive for longer.

Best us Heat fans can hope for is getting a good 1st and 2nd round pick.

Peace

The Heat will be $20 million free of cap space from this season, and probably $21 million when Smush leaves the team.
 
Joey DORSEY 2nd round pick


He'll be a 1st round pick....I think you are getting some of your info from a certain mock-draft site which compared Deshawn Stevenson to MichaelJordan....
 
If this happens I will...
*Looks at Japan Air*
Nevermind, this won't happen though

That facts still remain that we have Shaq is under contract for 2 more years and as the consensus is around the world is that Shaq has declined, OKAY, butstill take a look at his numbers Shaq is 6th in scoring among Centers and 16th in Rebounding with only 28 minutes per game, Dude's getting backup centerminutes and still putting up numbers. Everyone has gotten used to seeing him put up 30pts and 15 rebs, but we're not in Orlando. And when we get rid of allthese expiring contracts this summer, the Heat will be in rebuilding mode. Building around their superstars and role players. The Heat have holes on the team,big holes and this summer Pat Riley will be looking to fill those holes.

Joey Dorsey has no offensive skill set. Dude is 6-9 playing C. No way is he a 1st round talent, unless the Knicks are going to take him with their 1stround pick.
