With the Heat’s Chris Bosh, conversations are continuing regarding potential use of blood thinners that could be out of his system by game time. It remains undecided if the Heat will be OK with that approach (they weren’t when he suggested that last spring) or whether they will clear him to play. There are mixed opinions in the medical community about whether a player who has had two clotting episodes in the span of a year (but doesn’t have the gene that makes him pre-disposed to clotting) should remain on blood thinners beyond the normal six-month cycle. Bosh falls into that category.

Bosh's status is still up in the air

Fukkery this season will be. Man this Bosh shyt is just depressing and it seems he is most against the run and gun style dragic like to play so he might be best with the bench if he returns

Mets :scusthov:


what yall brehs think about potentially grabbing Rudy?

the amount of fukkery on our team currently im indifferent, dont feel like it'll make things better or worse :yeshrug:

Im in for 2016-17 complete fukkery tho :pachaha:
Depends on what we'd need to give up and whether Bosh is playing. If Bosh is out and they're gonna have Rudy as a small ball 4 I'd be cool with it, but if he would be at the 3 over Winslow, then no.

:jbhmm:
Im willing to trade dragic straight up
:mjlol:

:dame:

:scust:

Rudy isn't anywhere near as good as Dragic and he's an idiot. There's a reason he bounced around like he has and teams tend to improve without him.


But shockingly, I'm finally excited for this season. I don't think we'll be good but I'm kinda interested in what our goals over the next few years will be. I'm excited for our growth and to see if there is anything to be salvaged or cultivated from this season.

lol fair enough. Im just not a fan of Dragić and his contract to production ratio :manny:

That being said, hes def a solid player but i guess with the uncertainty surrounding the return of bosh and the style of play we'll be engaging in...his presence has me unenthusiastic.

Gay is the SF version of Gerald Green with a tad more overall talent but Westbrook confidence which is a horrible combination. His ability to confidence ratio is fukked which is why he tends to suck on teams and make them worst despite his stats and talent.

Dragic is actually a pretty decent contract now. He's talented enough where we can move him even if he doesn't work out (Though with all we gave up, it probably won't be worth the huge investment we put into him) and he's playing with a team that is absolutely suited to his strengths.

A bunch of very athletic, very versatile group of athletes and defenders that can cover for Dragic's defensive weakness while all being good enough ball handlers to start the break.

We have the mixture of defensive talent and athletic runners that we can probably turn a lot of missed shots or solid defensive possessions into instant offense.

Don't get me wrong, we're definitely gonna struggle in grind it out games with good offensive teams because we lack half-court talent but we'll play like that annoying fast break 2K team and compete every game.
