My reaction to this

Why you hating? More rings for D Wade can only be a good thing.

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

Vander as DW's backup?

NO.

Vander as DW's backup's backup?

No.

Vander as  PG for heat?

No.

Vander getting a favor from DW because some Euro scouts will be there looking at the other guys?

Yes

I really don't like Lebron and Pat Riley and think its time the next generation of MU ballers start winning (see jimmy butler)

So would you rather Vander not have a workout with an NBA team????

Honestly, Vander has so much to gain from learning from guys like Lebron and D.Wade.  Can't possibly see how this is a bad thing.

I think you guys are mistaking my reaction with me wanting vander to not make it.  Would it be better if I posted a guy screaming "why?!" As in "why the heat" as opposed to guy screaming "no!" As in "no! not the heat!"

Good luck to Blue, I hope he gets a shot there. He could absolutely play on some NBA teams, I just don't think the Heat are in that category.

The Heat have so much salary tied up in their superstars that they have to fill the back end of their bench with inexpensive young players.  Why not Blue?

Blue is likely to end up on a cash-strapped team like Miami or even the Knicks, or on a team looking for cheap 1-year options, like the Lakers.

That's actually a really good point that I hadn't considered. Maybe this could be the perfect fit for him.

This is where I'd say, "Vander is simply not an NBA player," but now that Lockett and Buycks are in the league, I can't say that with any certainty. I hope he catches on with somebody; Miami certainly seems to have the roster spots open and a need for cheap talent to fill those spots.

I Usha Vander all the best. I'd like to see him land on his feet in the nba this year. Good luck, VB!

Obviously he's not a guard, but not sure how many more roster spots they have open

Your saying Lebron doesnt win?  Any MU player who ends up with the Heat will be getting his ring finger fitted by end of the season.

He didn't say that at all.

He said "I really don't like Lebron and Pat Riley" "It's time for the next generation of MU Ballers to start winning (see JFB)"

No where in there did he say Lebron doesn't win.  He would just like to see somebody else win.

Wait I didn't say Lebron doesn't win... I know he wins, what i was saying is that its time for the new generation of mu ballers to win rather than just wade.  But while I'm a bulls fan I'd be ok with the raptors or Dallas or Knicks (HS connection to Shump) etc. winning so that we can say more MU players have nba championships now.
