I don't think they will. The Korver signing might have solidified it.

He'll be a defensive liability and probably will see 10 minutes a game against Golden State.

I don't want Millsap to end up in Toronto.

Bulls are supposedly shopping Butler again. Jae Crowder Jaylen Brown and the Nets first rounder please.

Korver is actually a pretty decent team defender. He is getting a little creaky in old age though.

He'll have a playoff game where he hits like 6-7 threes.

Kyle can't defend during a playoff series even if his D is somehow passable in January.

Won't matter in the East. They'll blow the doors off of everyone on the other end.

There was a 10 game stretch recently where Eric Gordon made as many threes (44) as the entire Bulls roster did during the same stretch.

He could make threes if he wanted to.

He made 3 the other night against the LeBrons.

I wonder how well he has to shoot 3s for the rest of his career to cease being the worst 3 point shooter in NBA history.

Edit: Never mind. Apparently he's already only the 2nd worst. Oh well.

Been watching many Heat games this year? How are the young guys doing?

This is great...

I saw the Winslow news the other day and immediately felt bad for 4/5. Although by the looks of it he was having a pretty rough year anyway.

Oh shit, I didn't even see the Winslow news.

Prediction: They trade Dragic and go full on tank city USA.

Tyler Johnson tank commander! I bet he could notch a 50 point game if they got rid of Dragic and Whiteside sat out.

Yes to everything. Winslow already had a stretch where he missed about 15 games and hadn't shown much (any?) improvement on his shot. I still had hopes for him showing some growth in the second half, but oh well. Sucks.

Dragic is as good as gone if Riley can find anyone willing to give anything in return. There's so many decent PGs out there I don't know that we're going to get much for him, but he'll be gone soon enough.

Between the lack of talent/depth and the insane amount of injuries he Heat are usually borderline unwatchable so it's been tough. I find it incredibly difficult to watch a bad basketball team and be able to tell if guys are getting numbers because they're actually decent surrounded by trash or if they're just getting numbers because the game is 48 minutes and somebody has to get them. So I'm not as high on the Winslow/Whiteside/Richardson/Johnson youth movement as I was 6 months ago. I have no idea what the draft looks like, but hopefully Miami bottoms out this year and can get a true franchise player in the draft. I still think those 4 guys can be good in supporting roles, but I don't know if they're much more than that.

I'm in a vicious Facebook battle with an idiot who thinks Jimmy Butler is an untradeable top 10 player right now.

I'm right about this aren't I?
