    Watch Batter finally get Defensive 1st team now that he'll get exposure on the Heat. :rolleyes:

    This is already starting to piss me off.

    I think Battier is viewed as a villain to fans outside of team he plays for or played for in the past. He'll fit right in with the Heat in terms of getting hated on. I think it's probably cause he's a Dukey.

    He's going to help that team a ton and I wish him well.

    He will get plenty of minutes just backing up Wade and LeBron. Who else do they have to do it? James Jones? House?

    This is terrible, but not as bad as when Elie left for the Spurs, or Shandn Andersn signed with the Rockets.

    or Wade... in my opinion he was more of an arrogant jackass than Lebron was last year

    I doubt he gets many minutes with Wade, and LeBron.

    Wade
    LeBron
    Battier
    Bosh

    Will this be the year Spoelstra accepts that he has to play his stars out of position at times to win? Bosh needs to quit being a b****, hit the weight room, and put in minutes at the 5.

    I'd have been happy if he'd stayed apart from the Heat. But now that he's a part of the Heat, he's lost to me...

    James Jones avg 20 mpg last year. Miller avg 20 mpg. This is with LeBron and Wade playing around 38 mpg. You don't need either playing that much. there is plenty of time for Battier.

    I doubt he gets many minutes considering he's getting older. A tired LeBron/Wade is going to be too tempting to Erik Spoelstra.

    He may be the missing piece the Superfriends need. A superior defender who can hit 3's in the 4th quarter.
