That story about him and Noah is still hilarious. He's such a joke.

Now that this charade is over and ownership got their little two extra games of playoff revenue, I'm hoping some management people can have a change of heart this off-season and do things that are a bit more long-term than signing Wade and Rondo. Here are some things I'd like to see.

Try to sign some combination of the following players:

1) Hayward
2) Holiday
3) Porter

- If you strike out on the free agents above, then trade productive role players for future picks, even if doing so might mean more losses for the upcoming season
- Also, if you strike out on the free agents above, then trade Butler to Boston
- Fill the two year old head coaching vacancy, maybe by poaching Spoelstra


Do they have cap room to make any moves? I had thought Paxson said they were going to be against the cap assuming Wade comes back and Mirotic resigns?

Paxson, in that interview, stressed that the young players need to get better for the team to improve.

Given that Gar (and Paxson) often talk about their cap situation as a positive (compared to other team), is there flexibility that he didn't want to talk?

I don't think there's much young talent on this team to be excited about. Portis, Valentin and Payne are all going to get opportunities to become part of next year's rotation, but to expect anything beyond bench players (if that) is a stretch. Payne, in particular, does not look like a NBA talent. Portis showed enough to have limited optimism, and it's too soon to give up on Valentin.

I don't understand why you'd want Mirotic back especially if he is going to be paid 10-12 million (assuming he's somewhere in that area based on the NBA financial windfall).

G.Heyward would be a fantastic signing, but it wouldn't make them anything more than 3-5 seed in the East assuming Butler is healthy. Still way too many holes, not enough athleticism or shooting.

Sounds like Wade is on the way back.
