| In a move that surprised me along with many others, Udonis Haslem has accepted the vet minimum to stay with the Heat. I know he turned down at least 7 mil/year from Dallas. This is a big deal for Miami because he's a solid role player which is just what they need to fill out their roster.
Also, Derek Fisher turned down the Heat to return to the Lakers. Showing his loyalty to the Lakers. Although, it only made sense since he'll probably win another championship there plus he gets more money. | |

| That is a little surprising, but if Haslem wants another ring and likes the system he may be choosing the safer bet in Miami. I think he would have given Dallas a strong presence on D and helped us out, so I was hoping we'd get him, but I thought the price was a little high honestly. |

| Neither move surprises me. Haslem is nothing more than a role player anyway so he may as well stay and try to get another ring. And Fisher has been immortalized in LA. He's the point guard of the defending champions. He's won 5 rings there and they're still the best team in the league until proven otherwise, so it wouldn't have made any sense for him to leave. |

| How much is the vet minimum? Just wondering how much money Haslem is turning down. He's still relatively young so i'm just surprised he didn't go for the most money. | |

| Good news, Haslem is a great hustle player and rebounder and defender. Always drops that jumper from behind the freethrow line. | |

You clearly haven't watched many Heat games. Especially in their lean years... | |

Haslem is one of my favorite players in the league because he does almost everything correctly. Him re-signing with Miami is a huge deal IMO. LOL...exactly. Haslem can start on pretty much any team without a star PF. And he's definitely going to start for the Heat. If I'm not mistaken, he was the starting PF on the championship team. He's obviously doing something right... | |

| Denver also offered Haslem the 7 mil a year for 5 years also. That will definitely help the Heat. The Mike Miller deal is just about done also. I heard about a 3 team trade where Barbosa, Diaw & Tyson Chandler go to Toronto, Jose Calderon to the Bobcats and Hedo Turkoglu to the Suns. The Suns got Josh Childress and Quentin Richardson to the Magic. | |

How could anyone hate Haslem? He's just a hustle player that gets shit done. Don't see how he's does anything to warrant hate. | |

Don't see how he's does anything to warrant hate. go watch the 2005 and 2006 Playoffs Heat vs. Pistons, most annoying player EVER in that series (besides Wade and his referee force field). I also dont like Florida (the college) and Haslem went there | |

No way does an unproven rookie get the nod over him. | |

No way does an unproven rookie get the nod over him. i still doubt he starts, he didnt even start last year, they will get a servicable big, besides i think Haslem would be much better sutied coming off the bench for them, without him they would have no one to spell Bosh at the end of games i can see them both playing though | |

| They will be signing Illgauskas soon. I would assume he will start for them at center and Haslem will come off the bench. I would still envision them splitting minutes. | |

| Since we all seem to converse on here regularly, I'd hope the chances of teams tanking would diminish. We could drop subtle reminders if need be. I thought the bragging rights alone would be enough to keep it interesting. | |
