Thomas Robinson should be looking for a team where he can get 20 mpg from a team that will sign him for the rest of the season with a player option for next season.   It'd only make sense for the Celtics if he adds an unguaranteed team option for next season.

Miami is one of the teams reported to be talking with Robinson.  With Bosh out, that seems like the best fit for giving him some high-profile minutes to possibly earn more than the minimum on his next contract.  That's if the Heat want him and it's possible they decide to pass on him.

I feel like Robinson is the sort of player who needs the experience of playing in China and the D-League to humble him a bit and make him more open to accepting a role.
