wrong. but go ahead & think that. The reports were that they were going to give Pat time to build the team. It hasnt even been 2 days of free agency.
Do you not understand with each day that goes by - the FA pool shrinks and shrinks, and not only that, while Riley work outs what happens with the Big Three, teams will be busy negotiating deals with the free agents that are left - throwing absurd amounts of money at them.

They might have the MLE, but they can't offer more than the veteran's minimum if they're already over the cap. They aren't at the luxury tax yet, but at $68 million, they could only offer big deals to their own free agents. They have to clear a lot of space if they want to realistically sign Pau.
That's what they have to offer right now, if they can somehow S&T Perkins for Pau, it'll mean they'll be able to offer him more. They only have to move Perkins to realistically land Pau. That's why I said, it's highly unlikely they'll amnesty him.

I dunno bruh, I just think he's making his rounds by visiting those teams and to keep all the "collusion" talks down. Them MIA nikkas didn't opt out for nothing, I think they all done agreed to this shyt already and are just waiting for him to finish his lil tour.

That could be it...because that way they would avoid any collusion or tampering talk....but wouldn't the other stars in the league already know.

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
I honestly think the spurs run is done..avenging the heat loss was there one last huge motivation now age and injury will finally hit..


Nah, they have another year in them, Pop is a master at managing rotations, nobody on that team played 30mpg last season and they still won the most games in the league.

If they offers that to the lakers with a first round pick I don't see the Lakers turning it down since Pau wants out and they want him gone.

what free agents have been signed that the Heat have interest in? Besides Gortat(who i never thought we had a chance to sign)? Look i understand there is some panic because of these big contracts. But its not like the we need some big name free agent. There will still be some good role players out there that can help us win(Battier, Ray type of vets). Also we dont know what Riles has planned man there is so much bullshyt floating around right now. All we can do is speculate & act like we know for sure, who & what is Riley is planning.
