    hmmm...i think he's a great utility big. honestly, if we could find the center version of him (looking at you, robin lopez), we're set in the front court.

    at the vet min, sure. just can't hurt flexibility elsewhere trying to sign a bench wing, imo.

    also, i kind of like mckinnie and wonder if he would look better with consistent minutes.

    No ill will towards Keef. He had some stretches where he chipped in some solid contributions, and seemed like a good locker room guy.

    I like Morris for team chemistry and toughness. He adds a ton to the team even when he's not on the floor. Thanks for everything you did during your tenure, gonna be missed

    Seems like a great locker room presence and a guy who can provide some solid contributions when given some playing time. Wish him nothing but the best.

    Good luck Kieff! No hard feelings at all, he contributed as much as he could.

    Good luck Kieff and now you’ll be able to chip in more for that joint bank account with Marcus. Allegedly. :)

    I liked him, he was a great team guy, but him missing like 50 threes in a row makes it a little easier to take.

    like the guy but he's a brick machine, best for all involved that he leaves

    good luck in Miami

    He will probably shoot 45% from three for the Heat. That's just the way it goes.

    in fairness, the last backup tweener pf we let go because he missed too many threes won a couple more titles with his clutch shooting after the fact...

    Kept his head together even when he was not playing...did the same for his teammates. Could be a very good assistant coach down the line. Thank you Keif!

    Was a good teammate and one of the leaders in the locker room. He and Tucker are going to rough some guys up in Miami.

    Seems like Miami is signing all the "dogs" around the league.

    Gonna be interesting to see them this season suffocating opponents.

    Great guy. He would fall out of the rotation and never b****ed about it. He always gave everything on court. All the best for him
