Dion Waiters had a decently good playoff run. He played good defense. I'm surprised he wasn't offered more, his agent def screwed up.
This is true but he seemed to learn a bit from playing for Donovan, and he will certainly learn from playing for Spoelstra. The Heat have a good culture I feel and this could give him a shot to really mature, who knows. I think this is good for the Heat. With Wade gone and Dragic easily capable of taking on a bigger load than last season, it might work out very nicely.
hahaha, he should have took OKC's qualifying offer (before they rescinded it). The qualifying offer was $6.8 million for 1 year.
He had size power and strength and actually could play despite what people here thought. Closest thing available in the free agent market to replace D-Wade.
The Cavs thought he was the next D-Wade when they got him in the draft http://blog.syracuse.com/orangebasketball/2012/06/dion_waiters_cleveland_cavalie_1.html
scrubs are getting 10 million a year. he's no scrub. a productive player on a good/great team last year.
OKC's qualifying offer was $6.8 mill and he turned it down. So yeah, he and his agent screwed the pooch.
