HEAT’s off-season moves are making me sick… From 15 strong in 06, we are down to 5 strong

     Okay, so I’m not the type of person that likes to burn my team to the ground, let alone a hall of famer in Pat Riley, BUT this offseason is just making me sicker by the minute. I don’t get it! Okay, we got Beasley and we got Chalmers.. We have Wade, and we still have Marion (for now). and what about Alonzo Mourning? Is he retired? or are we seeing the Brett Farve of the NBA in Zo? I thought that after the 15-67 season Pat Riley would be ashamed of what he had done and bring together a brand new roster to this HEAT team in 2008-2009.

     Sure, he has done some of that with drafting Beasley, and trading for Mario Chalmers (The PG of the future). but with that we signed James Jones, Bobby Jones (remember him), and oh this guy named Yakhouba Diawara! oh yeah try to say that name. it’s ridiculous. apparently Yakhouba Diawar played two NBA Seasons, he played both of them with the Denver Nuggets and was averaging like 4 Points per game. he’s a bench player, and the best thing, he’s a forward… PAT! WE DON”T NEED ANYMORE FORWARDS! stop signing meaningless players and start trying to trade for players that are proved in the NBA! Perhaps a trade with the Pacers for Jamaal Tinsley? They have said they want to part ways with him.. a trade that would perhaps include Udonis Haslem could work? All i know is that we are in desperate need at the PG position. SG we got it covered with D-Wade and Ricky Davis.. opps i forgot, he signed with the Clippers. well at least we can get a PG to back-up Jason Williams? ops i forgot again, HE SIGNED WITH THE CLIPPERS as well.

     Who do we have in our roster as of today? well not any big names besides, D-Wade, The Matrix, B-Easy, Super Mario, Zo, and U-D. well tha’t right there is a very solid Starting 5: Wade, Chalmers, Beasley, Marion, and Zo. but the question is.. Who will be the bench players? sure, we have Marcus Banks and Dorell Wright. But D-Wright is looking for a better offer and if he gets it we are down to 4 strong from our championship run.. and i would hate to see Dorell leave he is my second favorite player, i got his autograph and everything. to back up at PG we have, Banks and Quinn. to back up at Forward we have Wright and Haslem. and at center… umm Mark Blount? i don’t like that. Some people are telling me that this James Jones guy is a solid player.. I’m not buying it until i see him play. And for this, you could call me Doubting Thomas i don’t really care. But please, don’t try to tell me that Bobby Jones is a “solid” player.. he’s not, that’s why he only had a 15-day contract with the HEAT last season. There are so many good free agents out there still.. Shaun Livingston, Jannero Pargo, and Stephon Marbury if the Knicks eventually cut him. I don’t care what people are saying, Marbury will have my support if he comes down to south beach. look at Ron Artest and the Rockets.. No one is throwing stones at them! so why throw stones at the HEAT? If we have Marbury and Wade at the guards, Marion and Beasley at the Forwards, and Zo Comes back.. that’s a sick line-up. Listen up HEAT fans, I know that last year was a horrible year, and I know that what Pat Riley is doing right now is making you hate him more and more. But please, KEEP HOPE ALIVE.

 Look on the bright side, not all Florida Teams are stinking this year! Look at the 1st place Tampa bay Rays! and you can’t forget to look at the 2nd place Florida Marlins!!!! AND… DWYANE WADE is owning in the olympics! (that’s my topic for next time!), and we have Micheal Beasley and Mario Chalmers!!!!

GO HEAT
