Broussard: Heat emerging as front runner to sign Joe Johnson

[Roy H.]

If Broussard reports it, does it mean that has no chance of happening?

Woj's sauces are reporting it, too.

sounds tasty.

I guess if Bosh is out , then they need another scorer .

Heat with Dragic need to PUSH the ball , not drag down court and grind .   I think they are using Dragic wrong to begin with.   Adding Johnson s sluggishness won't help their pace.

No they need to keep letting Wade dominate the ball and park Dragic in the corner.

I hope Miami keeps starting Winslow. They need him in the lineup. They need his defensive quickness out on the perimeter. Winslow is more important to Miami than JJ is.

JJ should be competing with Gerald Green for 20-25mpg off the bench.

Yeah if he takes Green's minutes they should be better.

if JJ really wanted to win a championship he should have stayed in brooklyn

after all, brooklyn is going to be a huge player in free agency this offseason.

Don't understand that move at all...why in the hell he chose Miami? Partying? The Heat have Deng and Winslow at three, is he gonna play at four? Maybe. But that team is above average at best. They are a bunch of underachievers. They don't play like a team rather like bunch of individuals. Bosh is likely out for the season, so the aren't going anywhere. Are they better with him? Yes they are, he can still play. But they are not contenders. He could have gone to Clips, OKC, Tor or Cle... Whatever, hope he plays tomorrow against us so we can whupp his ass along with that diva d-wade...

I'm totally with you.  Why negotiate a buyout for a first round exit?

His contract falling off the books is one of the main reasons they'll be in position to make improvements this Summer.

Disappointed.  Think he woulda fit in nicely here.  Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. the Cheat!

Yes, I'll go to my local 7-Eleven and position myself to win the PowerBall Lottery, too.

JJ would have never seen the court on the Cavs .  He would have come on in last minute situations , like Ray Allen or Pierce to knock down some crazy Hail Mary last second shot .  Otherwise Joe would ride the bench all but maybe five minutes a game.

He can still get some good minutes of court in Miami with Bosh out.

So can't say he is ring chaser like Ray Allen .   Heat are in no position to beat the Raptors , Cavs or the Western contenders.

At this stage, most any move at all that the Nets make can be considered an 'improvement'.

not agreeing or disagreeing, but i dont see the connection between the buy out and nets cap space this summer. am i missing something?
