McRoberts -> Miami. Rugged, underrated power forward... And in the real story, Good news for #LeBron who doesn't like having to guard fours.

Somebody is leaving Miami

How does that mean he's leaving?

The heat gave their mid level exception to Mcroberts.. 4 years 23 MILLION, wow.

Almost 8 mil/year...woah!

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Bosh isn't a max player, there.

Same old argument...
He's not a top 10-15 player, but that doesn't matter when you have a salary cap and a max amount a player can earn.

It isn't like baseball when ones true value can be separated by top salary.

The heat gave their mid level exception to Mcroberts.. 4 years 23 MILLION, wow.

Almost 6 mil/year...woah! Well that is about right.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Almost 8 mil/year...woah!

?????

It's about the MLE...5.8 million.

Well just like Amare. He is making $23 mil, definitely not worth it

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Almost 8 mil/year...woah!

Actually average of less than 6/yr.

Anyway, he's the best 'center' of the Big 3 era...and probably the best 'big' that we could have afforded to sign.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

How can you compare a healthy, in his prime, current annual all star to Amare?

Bosh is very talented...but in a unique way for his size.

 

[Kold]

How does that mean he's leaving?

I said SOMEBODY. It's almost like they are pushing Bosh out of the door by signing Mcroberts to that contract. I mean I'm pretty sure that they could get somebody more valuable than Mcbob for that. The plot thickens....

 

[DJ Fieri]

The average player in the NBA makes around 5.5 million. McRambis is a solid role player and will give them a bruiser off the bench who can rebound, pass and score a little. He's also an under-rated defender and can guard PF's, something James didn't like doing.

 

[Davis_Mike]

$6 mil a year for a role player that averages 8/4/4. It's not that I dislike McRoberts, but if you have limited funds to build a team around 3 players, that is a lot of money to spend on a solid but unspectacular role player. And using the MLE makes the Heat hard-capped for 2014/15.

He's a bruiser, and he gives alot of effort, I'll give him that..but other than that, I don't really see him as that big a contributor

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Prediction: The Heat will soon be welcoming Caron Butler back, a player we sure could have used last post season, and wanted to be here.

 

[bksballer89]

He's a solid role player. Role players usually get around that just look at meeks, Bradley, and diaw. Pretty sure they couldn't get him for less.

Doesn't mean he's leaving he can guard 4s such as david west

Almost 8 mil/year...woah!

More like 5.7
