And maybe Carlos Arroyo will be ready to beat the Heat with a REAL contender. Lets go 18!

I have to say that I'm very, very surprised by this.  It's not that I didn't have faith in Danny, it's just that I thought Murphy would get more PT in Miami. 

And quite frankly, if I was his agent, I probably would've told him not to come here.  As much as I love the Murphy signing, if JO and Shaq are healthy come playoff time, it's possible Murphy doesn't sniff the floor (and even possible that he isn't on the active roster). 

I am amazed that Orlando didn't figure more prominently in this.

They offered, by far, the best opportunity for playing time and were the team that was the most desperate for another big man. Plus as a stretch four, he fitted their system.

Anyway ... major mistake by Otis Smith.

They also had the LLE to offer him as well right? So basically twice as much money. I'm also surprised that they weren't more in the mix as well

When are things going to get inked? you never know what could happen till it's official, it'd be nice to see him wed but even if suited probably wouldn't play yet
