    I dare say it, but I wish D-Wade had just enough left in the tank to make one last run with Lebron. He’s exactly the type of guy we need.

    I was watching him being interviewed on line after the Philly game and really liked him.

    True actually, we could use him. How was he last season? 15/4/4 @37? That's insane. But he's done, otherwise Bron would find the way to recruit him already. He has something left in the tank, he's probably just tired.

    He said prior to the year he’d be working out with Lebron before Laker games this year. To my knowledge, that hasn’t happened. I think he is happy in retirement

    Wade is a professional. He's not going to un-retire and disrespect the Miami Heat like that. And he was on record saying that he wanted to be more involved with his family. I'd reckon his 2nd youngest child is going through a difficult transition and Wade just really wanted to be there for him. Zaire is also heading to college so it makes sense for Wade to just move on from the game. Now that I think about it, this Miami Heat team with Wade would have been fun to watch. He should have at least gone one more season.

    The one thing Wade would have going for him if he came back is we are in Los Angeles, and he lives in Los Angeles now. That being said. 0.0001% chance it happens.

    How would that even work out?

    We have catch and shoot guys in KCP and DG, both better defenders. KCP is better at putting ball on the floor and attacking

    We will barely even have any time at guard spots with Avery, KCP, DG, CARUSO (better still get minutes) and now Dion. And then add JR???? Didn't even mention Rondo, who will probably get some time unfortunately at time.

    Unless we want to play Kuzma and Kieff like 2 minutes each.

    Well the Clippers have the same problem don't they with this awful "depth" thing?

    Except those players are good lol

    Also we have no more space

    Cutting Cook hurts our cap slightly the next year

    I really like Dudley for what he brings off the court and even on the court at times

    Yep. This is the roster. And we don't have the horses to run with the Bucks and Clippers. The only way we win the title is if Lebron goes 2015-2016 Lebron, AD plays at the peak of his potential (something he hasn't done in 4th quarters), Rondo turns into playoff Rondo, Kuz finally gets it......and of course Caruso gets 40 minutes a game.

    Well not “everyone” literally. Isn’t there a minimum total aggregate salaries threshold? I think?

    there is a hard cap scenario from doing snt players into a team over the cap but we're not in that situation, you could have 4max players (from drafting them all) that take up all your cap but that doesn't mean you can't sign the remaining 8players to vet min deals
