I have to agree with this thinking. Just let the guys grow, DW should be OK with it b/c it will benefit him in the long run when Beasley, Cook and Chalmers develop. let them play that's all I ask!!! Its basketball not rocket science.. This team is going to be very good this year.
Key to Heat's health? Internal medicine
If you weren't privy to Pat Riley's media conference call last week, you were afforded a rerun Monday, when Erik Spoelstra visited with Jorge Sedano and Krystal Fernandez on 790 The Ticket. For the Heat, it clearly will be all abo...
SVG drew up one of the best plays I have ever seen with no time on the clock and Lee BLEW the lay up. Thats not his fault, he put his team in the position to win and they couldn't come through.
SVG is the man and I would take him over Spo' anyday day of the week
Van Gundy left to draw on Heat's Finals days
Down 0-2 in these NBA Finals, Magic coach Stan Van Gundy is drawing upon a page from history that most assume he'd just as soon forget. Although a nominal "advisor" with the team at the time after stepping down earlier t...
JVG is funny, I think he does an excellent job on the broadcast. I would have been very disappointed if he wasn't there.
As for SVG he is the man!! I think he did a great job down here.
All Van Gundy all the time
Had a chance to catch up with Jeff Van Gundy on the conference call in advance of Jeff calling the NBA Finals for ABC, alongside Mike Breen and Mark Jackson. As expected, providing commentary for the games involving his brother Stan, the Magic coach, was a focus. So, too, were the me...
Ira please tell me you are joking??.. You just posted a blog detailing the many mistakes the Heat have made in regards to late draft picks. Know you post something like this? If there is nothing to write about you are better of doing Ask Ira and expanding the # of questions.
The Heat needs to make these picks work. Other teams do it why can't we? In 2003 for example, check the late 2nd round picks:
# 38 - Steve Blake
# 42 - Zaza Pachulia
# 45 - Matt Bonner
# 47 - Mo Williams
# 49 - James Jones *
# 51 - Kyle Korver
Freaking MO WILLIAMS was taken at 47, MO WILLIAMS!!!
I think any of the players listed above would find playing time on this Heat roster.
This team needs as many quality young players as it can get its hands on. If not we will 15-67 again before you know it.
Youth movement: Does the kid stuff have to cease?
The Heat has begun its pre-draft workouts, although one has to wonder about the vigor behind the process, considering the team's lone draft picks in June currently are at Nos. 43 and 60, and considering coach Erik Spoelstra reminded at almost every turn of the youth and inexperience ...

I hope they fire him... I would love him on our side again.

" Me too. I would take SVG or JVG any day over Spo
Stan Van Gundy again draws scrutiny
There is something about former Heat coach Stan Van Gundy and very large people that tends to lead to oversized debate. That certainly proved to be the case again Tuesday, when Magic center Dwight Howard felt Van Gundy ignor...
Nothing new here.. We have been saying this for the longest time.
And there is no guarantee when it comes to young players in this organization anyway. Even if we drafted Michael Jordan, I could see him struggling for playing time. You know he wouldn't be able to step on the floor until he understood, the "Heat" culture .. bla bla bla.
"Heat" culture, what is that?? Is that the same culture that has only won 3 game 7's in the franchises history? Or the culture of getting beat in the 1st round of the playoffs 8 out of the 13 years? Or better yet has gotten swept 3 times in the Riley era?
Give me a break, this franchise lives in a fantasy world.
Daequan Cook is no Big Baby
Went to the NBA draft guide shortly after Glen Davis hit his jumper to tie the series against the Magic and the reality was sobering. 2007 NBA Draft: Daequan Cook, No. 21, first round; Glen Davis, No. 35 pick, second r...
