    MAMA WE DID IT

    THE EAST GOES THROUGH SOUTH BEACH

    *let me cope*

    Coming off the worst season of his career. Oh well

  3. Number333

    He was considered one of the worst players on a disaster Pistons team during that losing streak.

    He went to the Knicks and had a ridiculously poor regular season in limited minutes.

    But in the playoffs, with NY hurt to hell against Indiana, he honestly did pretty great as a spark plug scorer who hadn’t played meaningful minutes in over 2 months.

    **Final Verdict:** I doubt he plays much at all with us. This feels Moe Harkless-tier rather than anybody who’s actually gonna get consistent minutes for us.

    Niceeeeee another Knicks free agent!
    Ya remember Mo Harkless?”

    😑

  5. Clearly he’s gonna be mid all season til he just randomly decides to drop 40 on the Celtics

  6. At least this will end the Klutch nonsense that Heat twitter loves to spread.

    Vet min shooter, meh not amazing but I’ll take it. We’ve been fortunate to be able to utilize guys in roles where shooting may be their only or main strength, Babbitt, Ellington, Duncan etc. I don’t know that he’ll play a ton, but he should be able to provide some spacing and spot mins at the least.

  8. nofaplove-it

    He actually did really well in the playoffs last year

    Herro, Duncan, Burks, Larssen, Richardson….. yeah Herro or Duncan is surely about to get shipped out.

    This smells of “the deal before the deal”

    When given minutes, this man can score. It’s about all he can do but for a team with an anemic bench on the offensive tip, it’s not bad.

  11. If there’s one thing the team needed, it’s yet another streaky SG

  12. Pat said “HAHA Now you can’t say we ran it back” 🫵

    I like how I expected this from the get-go. Dollar store Demar lol

  14. KindParamedic6657

    Not a bad move. Nothing big but I don’t hate it.

  15. Tragic_Bronson91

    Pat is just looking at the highest rated players in 2k free agency that are basically willing to take close to minimum. This season will not be fun

  16. Severe-Vermicelli-71

    Bottom 10 offense, Burks is a 6’6 bucket getter, several seasons shooting >40% from 3. That part of it makes sense. Miami probably viewing this as an upgrade for the patty mills spot. Role is basically if one of Tyler or Duncan is out, you get 20 mins and you better be willing to shoot.

    For a minimum ill take it, but not moving the needle much, I’d rather have Delon even if J-Rich and Delon are duplicative, Delon is probably the best out of the 3.
