Reports of Celtics having interest in JR Smith. Don't see signing JR as a possibility given their cap number and 16 guaranteed contracts.Comment

Re: 2016 NBA Offseason Thread
What a crazy situation. I get both sides but Riley is always going to come out as the scum in this and, honestly, hard to disagree with anyone that sees it that way. He's a slimy dude.Thoughts on the latest Bosh/Heat wrinkle?

Re: 2016 NBA Offseason Thread
Man, I can't really say I blame him. Miami isn't going to let the dude risk his life if their doctors are worried. And Pat surely isn't going to keep him around and pay him if he can't play.
Obviously it's going to look bad, but it's kinda a no brainer.

Re: 2016 NBA Offseason Thread
I have no idea how Riley really handled the situation, but I'd rather be called every name in the book then to be someone who was in any way complicit with letting some risk their life in this way.
He's still going to get 75 mil from them even if they waive him. Yep they're trying to save their cap situation, and keep him from playing. IMO, it's totally worth whatever hit his reputation takes.Jordan Mychal Lemos

Apparently Deandre said if they can get him to the Clippers he'll come off the bench.

Re: 2016 NBA Offseason Thread
IF another team was willing to play him, what would have to happen?
Make a trade with Miami unless the Heat release him?
Even if the team didn't have to give the Heat compensation, wouldn't they need room in the salary cap to fit him in?
Bosh presumably would only want to play for teams which are playoffs contenders, most of whom wouldn't be able to absorb his salary.Comment

Is the Riley hate so strong that people forget a blood clot can kill faster than a cop who feels threatened by a civilian.Comment

Re: 2016 NBA Offseason Thread
I'm not saying I think Riley is wrong. I'm saying people will feel he is holding Bosh back from playing especially since Bosh keeps saying he wants to play.
I absolutely think Riley is doing the right thing.
You don't want Bosh dying on the court. The NBA should probably step in sometime soon."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied.
