Dragic + dion + 1st for CP0
With all the Bustise point guard hype we've been getting i dont think we want another ball dominant PG on the roster. I'm really curious to see how Winslow does playing PG full-time, tho.
Besides, i know CP3 may have another decent to good year or 2 left in the tank but i dont want no part of that contract. :whoa:

And i'm mentally preparing myself that we'll be taking on a super shytty contract in any trade in exchange for Dion Waiters since every team knows we need to get rid of him and he has 2 years left on his contract.

Any team with a sorry player with a albatross contract will offer them up for Dion. I'm thinking some Kent Bazemore's ATL or Tyler Johnson' MIA type contract.
Unless we can package him and Dragic and get a better deal.:manny: Either way we're not in a position of power in this situation.
Lord I hope not, just let him rot. No need for more dead weight

You cant. The NBAPA would file a grievance against the Heat for trying to torpedo a player's chances at his next contract.

These things arent as simple as some of the cats on here wanna make it seem. Any player on a vet min contract comes with an understanding that he's at the end of the bench barring injuries. A player with Dion's contract who's healthy and gets 0 PT can be argued to be something else if yo let him rot for too long and you get the right arbitrator.

Not if there are simply better options available (Herro, and to a far lesser degree Nunn). Fwiw I don't think Nunn is better than Waiters, like I said I see him as another Tyler Johnson type, but if Spo would rather give them Dion's minutes I don't think he has much of a leg to stand on. I support all the guys but going scorched earth on social media aint the way to change your situation.

He bout to be the next Shaq,
I like when players continue making millions after they retire.
MJ did,
Magic
Obviously Shaq and Chuck
Other players do it through coaching or calling games etc.

But most of these dudes, just fade into obsurity living off their millions, trying to invest in get rich quick schemes even though they're already.

Spoelstra is a piece of shyt and a coward. its obvious he plays favorites and is not up front with his players. He's probably a liar too. its why Fizdale was so important because he was the guy that could communicate with Lebron and the other guys.

When guys like Shane Battier and Ray Allen have problems with you(they did in 2013-14) maybe, just maybe you are the problem.

Waiters is 27, healthy and is expected to just allow this guy to fukk with his career and be quiet about it? why because Heat fans are sheep that think the Heat, Spoelstra, and Riley can do no wrong?

Why did Ray and Shane have problems with Spo?

They wanted PT?
