    Bi-annual exception? Looks like Miami is operating as if the big 3 are back together.

    But are McRoberts+Granger+Napier enough to convince Lebron that the team has substantially upgraded?

    Maybe Granger will be better with one more summer removed from his injuries, but he didn't look like a big difference-maker with the Clips. And isn't Granger basically the kind of older guy that Miami kept on signing the last few years, which resulted in the kind of team that they had losing to the Spurs in the first place.

    Maybe it means that Riley has a ton of confidence. Maybe it means Riley is really desperate. Tea leafs... ugh. I hate tea leafs.

    Didn't see him do anymore than Shard had done for them already. Tries to play D but gets into foul trouble easy

    This can't be enough to convince LeBron to stay, right? McRoberts and Granger? Maybe if they got Deng...

    I hope this blows up in Miami's face.

    Cole - Napier
    Wade
    James - Granger
    McRoberts - Haslem
    Bosh - Andersen

    The domino is slowly falling to pieces and I don't like it.

    I would rather have anyone on the spurs roster than Danny Granger...

    IF Bosh does comes to Houston Miami will not mind since they can go after both Melo and Lebron.

    Add Oden, Haslem and one of Norris Cole or Mario Chalmers and that's a solid core. Lebron won't say no to that IMO. McRoberts is a terrific passer who started at PF for a good defensive team. Granger is easily better than Rashard Lewis. Napier, from what we're hearing, is an upgrade and a Lebron pick.

    Only issue I see is Bosh said he's not as interested in playing inside as he used to be. He's the C on this roster.

    Yes, exactly.

    Granger is not the hero they need. He's the hero they can afford.

    The Heat are more aggressive than us this offseason. Why Thats right we're spending all our energy waiting for Lebron to make his damn decsion. If Granger's garbarge, then what exactly is Casppi? This offseason ain't looking too good
