p: I am a little worried that our "run it back" mentality becomes the year after the final, when the Bucks swept us away. We try to repair the four points with a MOE without small will, in the same way as it seems that we will try the same thing with Caleb Martin. Even if Caleb is our initiator, we do not have four backups. Was Haywood Highsmith's contract better as a bidirectional, so that it opens up a place in the list to say a Blake Griffin? - Sylvester, Philadelphia.
A: Haywood's Highsmith element is the one who fell into the summer league. The problem is the way in which the Haywood contract is structured, another team can claim it outside of exemptions on the NBA-Minimum scale and not have to worry about guaranteeing its contract. Thus, basically, it would be unlikely that this eliminates the exemptions, which would be a required movement if the warmth sought (and that the highsmith would accept) will bring a change to a double sense. But there are other ways to add a veteran presence in the future, whether it is a Blake Giffin or Markieff Morris or another player without signature. The main one would be to use the list of the list in another way you take. Of course, the heat could also simply play Haslem, who is a power attacker. Beyond that, the heat retains the possibility of adding a thirteenth player now in an avant-garde, then working later to go below the luxury tax at the end of the season. Or it may simply feel comfortable with the Martin and Highsmith swimming pool, as well as with other large or large alignments, in energy rotation. And remember, if the heat sends more players in an exchange of those they bring, a place would open on the list for such a power attacker business.
p: anger, if Pat Riley cannot find another superstar at a market price, or make an exchange for someone like Harrison Barnes or Gordon Hayward for the deadline for negotiation, the best movement could be to target a player like Kevin Love after a purchase. - Gabe, Miami.
A: First, the riders, who plan to be in the career in playoffs, are not necessarily sellers. But, during the Enigma raised in the previous issue, an addition in the deadline of purchase could also provide an answer. However, it would be a resolutely long vision, given that such movements generally do not reach at the end of February or March.
.Q: Bring Hassan Whiteside. He matured. - Shane.
A: Although this has certainly become a valid position, the heat is barely able to sign another center, with Dewayne Dedmon again signed and with the development possibilities of Omer Yurtseven. It is often reduced to equipment that wants to try something new. At 33 (yes, he is so old), Hassan Whiteside could simply have aged.
