Cool but why are the Heat trading their starting PG for 2 more SFs?
Because he is almost 33, has missed half their games this year, and is still owed 37 million dollars over the next two years. Now don't you see why he would be such a great acquisition for us? Oh, he is also at his lowest win share/48 of this decade.

Why couldn't we send a MIL first round pick to them for Hill?

Probably couldn't match salaries at the moment. We announced the signing of Evans 2 minutes before this trade was announced. I'm sure we were negotiating.

We could have agreed to give them Ariza in a week, and they could buy him out. Perhaps we were negotiating. Too bad we have nobody experienced at negotiating in our front office.

Daniel Theis was +50. That has to be a single game +/- record.

56 points isn't even close - Cleveland beat Miami by 68 (148-80) on 12/17/91.

It’s amazing that we have three of the bottom seven +/- performances in history, all in the last calendar year, and it’s three different players in three different games.

My bad. I thought NBA TV said that. Must have been some kind of qualifier.
