Gordon can play Point, he's done it before.

It's obvious Miami's biggest need is locking up Wade long term. You guys could also use some depth at PF/C, and a nice SF. If you guys can lock up Wade, and then manage to get another big time playmaker like a Bosh/Stoudemire in 2010, you guys will be very good.
 
i like that idea.

so, ben gordon, is he a small forward or a shooting guard?
 
Gordon is a very small SG. As the other poster stated, you'd have to put Wade at point or go with a 3 guard lineup. Gordon's problem is that he can only play on a team with a big PG like hes had with Hughes, Hinrich, and Rose. Hes very talented but such a niche player that he'll have a tough time getting the dollars hes after.

As far as the Heat are concerned its a moot point. They can't afford him and its going to take a much better player to get them involved in any sign and trade discussions.
 
Gordon has never played the point, either in college or the pros. In Chicago hes always been paired with Duhon, Hinrich, Hughes, or Rose. He might slide over and defend the opposing PG but on the offensive end hes an off guard.
 
Here's some draft news:

• The Heat -- which has auditioned several potential second-round point guards (France's Rodrique Beaubois , Arkansas/Ukraine's Patrick Beverley , BC's Tyrese Rice, Gonzaga's Jeremy Pargo) --- will watch for Jamaal Tinsley's July 27 grievance hearing. He could be set free in late summer if an arbitrator forces the Pacers to play him (which they won't) or buy him out.
