Rondo's career 3P% is higher than Wade's.  Maybe it won't be so bad if Rondo can replicate the 36.% percent he shot last season and Butler can approach his 38.1% career high.

I heard they're looking to trade for Evan Turner.

Wade has agreed to join the Bulls but they need to clear cap space to make it happen.  They need to get rid of Calderon and Dunleavy.  Would you absorb 1 year of an unneeded contract to pick up say a 1st round pick from the Bulls?

Why did people want Calderon or Dunleavy so badly? We really didn't need them

Yeah, I don't get it, either.

People want some A-C-T-I-O-N!

Meh, we might as well just trade for McDermott, imo, lol ;D.

Three well below average shooters in your main backcourt rotation, trading away Dunleavy. Doug is virtually untouchable now.

Butler's fine, imo, and Rondo did shoot .365 from 3 this past season, but your point still stands.  I don't think Bulls fans ever expected to see 'Doug McDermott' in the same sentence as 'virtually untouchable' ;D. This offseason is nuts.

Dunleavy to Cavs, Calderon to Lakers.

Old news homie.. Calderon to some west coast team, Dunleavy to Cavs.

In the end, I guess Miami didn't want Wade enough, weren't creative enough, or Wade didn't care to stay enough?

How I know? Well... if we assume they couldn't dump McRob (expensive to do so), they could've easily stretched his contract. By doing that they were put in a position to either match the Bulls' offer or even go above it.

Why that scenario didn't play out, the mystery we'll never know.

That made me laugh out loud. Haha

They will need more outside shooting bigs to help spread the floor.  McDermott and Mirotic is a start.

Dwyane Wade is not on the Heat. That is beyond weird to say. Also what a great fit in Hoiberg's pace and space offense, just like Rondo!

Chris Forsberg with this savage comment

"As the Miami Heat watch 34-year-old Dwyane Wade walk away for nothing, it's a good time to remember that the Boston Celtics turned 35-year-old Paul Pierce and 37-year-old Kevin Garnett into a package that included three first-round picks and a trade exception that ultimately helped deliver All-Star Isaiah Thomas to Boston."

It was on the main ESPN page, but only for a few seconds. Heaven forbid ESPN question the Heat or make the Celtics look good.

Rondo's was on extremely limited attempts, though. Like, he didn't even average one made per game.

Just looking at Wade's percentages have me shocked, though. He's only shot 30% or better four times in his career, peaking at 31.7% in 2009, and he's shot below 20% twice in his career. That is terrible, which is obviously not good for three penetrating players.

Combining those three with a non-shooter in Lopez, and you might have the absolute least amount of spacing ever.
