Vertical Limit
Active Roster
As long as Section starts the thread next season, we'll be fine. We don't need to pick anyone up.
He said that he would go over the tax for the RIGHT player. namely a superstar...a Brand type.
So in essence..he wouldn;t to just sign bench players. They were gonna go over for Mo Williams...so that tells you that Mickey doesn't mind it.
At max, Mo Williams was getting the full mid-level from Miami.
Hes talking about the luxury tax, not cap. Mo's contract would of put the Heat well above the tax limit at the time, when they were trying to justify not re-signing Posey and Kapono by using this stupid argument.
Its all a moot point. Riley ended up taking the team above the limit by signing a bunch of scrubs to partially guaranteed contracts and releasing them. The true irony is that Arison could of saved money by handing Posey the 3 mil and not signing the likes of Slaughter and Hardaway.
In hindsight he was right....signing Posey and another bench player for what was left of the MLE wouldn't have made the Heat a contender. But to let other teams have your assets for nothing doesn't make any sense.

Ferrer and 126:
Every Heat game I saw this year with J-Will starting, we turned the ball over more than I could stand.s There is a reason why he was benched in favor of Chris Quinn.
As far as Smush, some of you were saying that he was a good player with LA and he would rise to stardom, becoming a good third option behind Wade and Shaq, but I knew better, he never rose to the occasion in LA and didnt even play well enough here to even have a regular role.

We? That's not Jason Williams' fault. If anything, most of our turnovers are mishandled passes or Dwyane Wade forcing the issue, which I don't blame him for with such a crappy supporting cast. Jason Williams career wise is one of the best players in the league at ball protection. This is an argument that you have absolutely zero chance of winning.Every Heat game I saw this year with J-Will starting, we turned the ball over more than I could stand.s There is a reason why he was benched in favor of Chris Quinn.
I don't think anyone in their right mind thought any of those things about Smush Parker. Most people were dead on: if he becomes a good player, fine. If not, then it's not really going to hurt us financially. Never did I see a single person on here refer to Smush as a possible "good third option" behind Wade & Shaq. The idea was backup PG from the get go, so I don't know where "third option" comes from that.As far as Smush, some of you were saying that he was a good player with LA and he would rise to stardom, becoming a good third option behind Wade and Shaq, but I knew better, he never rose to the occasion in LA and didnt even play well enough here to even have a regular role.
We should go after Baron Davis in the Offseason.
and whomever starts the next Heat thread other than Section should be shot.
