[Akrazotile]

Total game changer. Another asterisk for the King I guess :confusedshrug: .

[SilkkTheShocker]

Might as well. This is the last year Miami is going to have so many old wing players. Next year they are going to be a lot younger in that department.

[Jlamb47]

Lebron called caron

Lebron called caron

Probably Wade and Riley more than anyone else. Allen and his Ohio buddy Oden were the ones LeBron recruited hard.

[Budadiiii]

LeBron needs even more help. :facepalm

Oden and Beasley(number 1 and 2 pick) aren't enough.

If he doesn't win this year then he can never be in the top ten. He just can't.

[DuMa]

is he good? can miami get him?

[Levity]

Would be a good pickup. another serviceable shooter. but how many minutes would he get and at the expense of who?

[jlip]

I didn't even know he was still in the league.

[Hoopz2332]

I don't think he's that good but atleast he he can play some d and give battier and lebron a breather.

My thoughts exactly

I don't think he should even be top 20 if he wins this year

[IncarceratedBob]

Another all star for the Heat, christ this is getting somewhat ridiculous. Great addition, solid defender, good shooter, great teammate

Agreed. If pre-prime Durant wins it all this year, on the team that drafted him, and after everyone declared OKC's title hopes over after trading Harden, then Durant will jump LeBron on the all time lists.

that's the thing tho, he is winning. fifth mvp and third finals mvp. top five all time. and there's nothing your hick ass team can do about it other than embrace it.

[scott0326]

how about you watch him play instead of looking at made up numbers

he looks noticeably more fresh than previous years, he's moving quickly. he's said numerous times he expected this bucks team to be a real playoff contender in the east and he's not really interested in playing for a lottery team. by the time the playoffs roll around he'll be the crunch time 3 for Miami...

Chalmers
Wade
Butler
James
Oden


Obviously he wont be the focal point of the offense but I could see him put up 15/6/4 on 25 mpg on great shooting numbers
Yeah, because Bosh wont be playing in crunch time. :oldlol:

Dumb ass

[Eric Cartman]

I'm not surprised that a thread about a Butler would attract Durant fans.

[inclinerator]

so the cop, had an early christmas with butler going to the bucks. Guess that christmas gift ended early

[Kingwillball]

Yeah, because Bosh wont be playing in crunch time. :oldlol:

Dumb ass


Plus I doubt he Jumps Allen and Battier in crunch time minutes either. Butler gives the heat another solid bench option to play limited backup minutes in certain situations so they don't have to play Chalmers AND Cole at the same time as much and more Cole,Allen,Butler,Birdman with 2nd unit.

[poido123]

So the Heat could potentially have Wade starting, Allen backup and Butler backup backup? :oldlol:

That's hilarious :pimp:

No Butler would get some mintes at the 3 and 2 especially when Lebron Slides over to PF and Heat go Small.

Of course, then you have rashard lewis and battier who can play the 3 also.

Embarassment of riches :lol

I think Spurs will win it this year. This is most likely their last chance at NBA title with Duncan getting close to retirement, everyone on the team knows that so they will do anything they can to get Duncan another ring before he retires.

[Black and White]

This could be a great pickup for the Heat, a bench guy that will add some quality production.

Finally a sensible comment from a non Heat fan! I was half expecting you to claim that adding Butler officially makes the Heat the most stacked team of all time. :lol

Nah, you have to be realistic, Butler isn't half the player he used to be, and realistically how many minutes is he going to get come playoff time?

[Bandito]

:biggums:

Kobe had kwame brown, a number 1 pick, and lost in the 1st round...haha now look how dumb you look and kill yourself bud. :oldlol: :lol :roll:

FYI: Lebron broke into most peoples top ten last year and smart peoples top 6

[Dizzle-2k7]

I used to love Caron back when he was in LA with Kobe.. but hes weak now. So weak.

Heat Haters love this pickup for the Heat. Go Pacers.

Avg 11 ppg with bucks in 34 games and will be much more focused and motivated with Miami. Why would haters be happy if he signs with Miami as he is still between 9-12 man..

[JellyBean]

Dang. If the Heat can land Butler, it really becomes Pacers vs Heat in the ECF. Wow

[JohnFreeman]

He will be better on the Heat, at least he will have championship motivation

[Nash]

:biggums:

as if Miami needed Butler for that

i thought he was already top 10 with 4MVPs and 2FMVPs.

[HurricaneKid]

Caron couldn't get minutes on the Bucks and now LeBron's success is going to have an asterisk?

Some of you cats need to get a grip.

Wait, the ECF wasn't already Heat vs Pacers?

Who you got beating the Heat before the ECF? Lol

[Lord Leoshes]

No on the contrary, i think u r the one that needs to let go of that grip. I've heard stories that you can go blind from to much of that. :no:

[Twiens]

I have a feeling he signs with OKC. He'd get big minutes there, maybe even start with Perkins out. No point of riding the end of Miamis bench...

[longtime lurker]

Wow the NBA is getting hard to watch. The Heat are a top team in the league how much more stacked do they need to get?

[Simple Jack]

Agreed. If pre-prime Durant wins it all this year, on the team that drafted him, and after everyone declared OKC's title hopes over after trading Harden, then Durant will jump LeBron on the all time lists.

OKC is more talented top to bottom than the Heat.

I also don't think anyone in their right mind with even an ounce of logic would believe a statement like this. What kind of criteria is this?

[Simple Jack]

LeBron needs even more help. :facepalm

Oden and Beasley? Lol

[FPJ]

The amount of stupid spread itt is something else (even more than the usual which seemed impossible).

Battier: 4.8pts, 2.1 reb, 0.9 assists
Chalmers: 9.8 2.6 5.0
Cole: 7.4 2.3 3.1
Allen: 9.1 3.0 2.1
Andersen 6.5 4.7 0.4
Beasley 8.3 3.4 0.7
Oden 3.0 2.3 0.0
Lewis 4.2 2.8 1.0
Haslem 2.7 2.8 0.2

So stacked... ****ing idiots
