Napier his rookie year will be a downgrade from Chalmers. I like the guy alright but he's not close to ready for the NBA.

McRoberts is decent.

Granger is a shell.

Nothing done so far makes me think the Heat will be better even with the return of the big 3. Still probably good enough to easily win the East though.

I don't expect much, if anything, out of Napier this year.

I do expect some contribution from Ennis.

Source: Lebron has reached out to at least one of the Cavs players within the last week and told him, "get ready & be prepared."

Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat With McRoberts, Granger, and with promise of Napier, Ennis, Heat are better than they were at end of season. And haven't lost anyone (yet).

Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat Plus, Heat still have options of sign-and-trades with all of their free agents, so long as (under tax rules) major raises aren't involved.

Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat So basically McRoberts in for Battier, Granger in for Beasley, Napier in for Douglas, Ennis in for (argument's sake) Jones.

Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat With Heat still in position to bring back Birdman, Ray Allen, Rashard, and even Oden, should they so choose, possible each with raises.

Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat The gist being: Heat have made four consecutive NBA Finals, don't need major makeover. And it's not like anyone in East dramatically rising.

Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat Yes, Derrick Rose can change equation for Chicago, but even when Rose was healthy, Heat had enough for Rose-Deng-Noah, and now Deng gone.

This dude is delusional. How can you say the Heat aren't worse right now when LEBRON JAMES ISN'T ON THE ROSTER.

Marc J. Spears @SpearsNBAYahoo LeBron James & Dwyane Wade had dinner at LAVO in Vegas late last night with some friends before going to Marquee Night Club, a source said.

Then again, Wiggins is one of only like 200 people LBJ follows on twitter, and I would think he would be very interested in playing with him.

I'm feeling bust with Wiggins. I'm a KU guy too, but I'm just not feeling it.

Wiggins won't be a bust. He's going to be a solid defender and all this offense would demand from him, if paired with LeBron, is to be unselfish with the ball and shoot/drive when there is an opening. I wouldn't have taken Wiggins first, but with Blatt, it makes perfect sense.

You can teach him to dribble and coach him to use his left. You can improve his jumpshot. There is nobody in this draft with the kind of unteachable physical ability that he has. But right away I believe his floor is a good defender, solid system guy, and occasional but streaky scorer. That's all you an expect from a guy that young.

Oops, sorry. I thought you were saying Wiggins won't be terrible. Wiggins was a terrible pick. Bust written all over him.

Yeah and I really believe any random person who might have purchased his Cavs jersey so soon after draft day might be a complete carrot chompin ****in idiot cum dumpster.

saphojunkie 07-08-2014 03:17 PM

Well, if Wiggins had Fred Hoiberg, the single most sought-after coach in the history of competitive sport, he would have been a hall of famer. Now? Bust city.

I am already through with Wiggins. I heard a rumor that the guy struggled in an exhibition game. If there was ever a cum collection agency that needed to dump their jars of cum somewhere, Wiggins is probably a good target.

Heck I know I wanted to blow my wad on him after his shitty game against Stanford in the NCAA tournament. Wait....no...shit. :(
