Mike is from Florida right?

He played at UF but I don't believe he's from Florida.

Nice signing and that probably also had alot to do with Mike wanting to go there. Back at home since he played for the Magic

Some more news coming from the Heat:

The Heat is finalizing a deal with Washington Wizards free-agent swingman Mike Miller that is expected to net the former University of Florida standout a five-year, $30 million contract.

The Heat also is finishing off a sign-and-trade agreement with the Toronto Raptors that will allow recently acquired power forward Chris Bosh to receive a six-year free-agent contract instead of the maximum five-year contract an outside free agent can receive. The Raptors, in turn, will receive a package of draft picks from the Heat and a trade exception of roughly $15 million.

Unlike Bosh, Cleveland Cavaliers free-agent forward LeBron James will receive a five-year contract, with the right to opt out after four seasons. Guard Dwyane Wade, in re-signing with the Heat, will take a six-year contract, with the right to opt out after five.

and Haslem:

The Heat still is addressing the possibility of retaining free-agent power forward Udonis Haslem. However, under its current salary structure, the Heat only could offer Haslem a veteran-minimum 2010-11 contract of $1.1 million. The Heat then could make up the money to Haslem in 2011-12 and beyond.

However, such an approach would leave Haslem with no financial protection against a career-ending injury, possibly costing him the $30 million or so he could receive by signing with another team this summer. Haslem has had contact with several teams, with the Utah Jazz emerging as a suitor in the wake of losing free-agent power forward Carlos Boozer to the Chicago Bulls.

I think we all missed it. I'm just glad it wasn't here in Chicago.

Except for Anthony (if he wasn't renounced) and Wade, nobody. All the bird rights to all their free agent players are gone.

Apparently this "era" didn't happen on an basketball court.

Re: Free Agent Tracker (PG 1) & Off Season Movement

You know who would fit nicely with the Heat? Earl Waston....I've always thought if got on a team with great players he would do some damage. He is pretty solid too. Jason Williams is out there too. So many players to choose from.
