Hindsight is 20/20. There are quite a few teams that took a look at Whiteside and passed. The Heat didn't even see Whiteside coming. The only reason they signed him was because they were desperate for a big, so they took a flier. That's why they didn't sign him until the season was over half way done.
Of course, I'm aware of the circumstances. It's just painful to have a guy emerge that you will now chase with max money that basically slipped through your fingertips once already. To a lesser extent, it could happen with Bazemore this summer as well.
