According to Miami Heat Twitter
Harrelson that is. Good for him, he went to workout and made the team. Not happy in that this former asset of ours found a home with a rival. He actually complements their style of play very well. Wonder if he'll last there?
Appears he may get the minutes Dexter Pittman would have received. I also forgot the Heat drafted Varnado and signed him this off-season too. They shored up the depth of their team on the cheap. I don't think they spent over $8mil this off-season. That's crazy. They will have to pay the Tax though
I think Harrelson is going to be solid.. Especially getting open looks from Lebron.. That team is scary good with all the shooters they've surrounded him with.. Ray, Rashard Lewis..
Happy for Jorts, hope he has a solid career. I'm sure MSG will give him a warm ovation for his short time with us, but hope he and the Heat get clobbered when we meet.
This Heat team is going to be sick. I can't believe they added Ray Allen.
Assuming Dwight Howard comes back healthy this year (I know its not a foregone conclusion), the NBA is a two team show next year. Everyone else is just cannon fodder.
Jorts was really overrated as a 3pt shooter. Just another crazy idea from Dantoni. Putting a 6'10'' 270 pounder at the 3pt line. Notice he didn't attempt any 3's under Dantoni let alone any playing time
I just liked him as the Anti-David Lee. Defense, Rebounds, Hustle.
Who the guy that just had a better season then Amare and would fit in perfectly with Tyson and Melo?

David Lee? Mr. Double Double? Lee was Lazy? No hustle?
How do you finish 15th in the league in rebounding and not hustle?
Defense is a good arguement but when your the best big man on the team, playing center at 6-9 your coach is likely telling you not to foul.
Jorts foul count was not a problem was it?

I don't completely agree. I believe, no matter how good LA is, OKC still has a shot out West. So, the NBA is a three team show next year and everyone else is just cannon fodder.

But that's not good at all. Excluding what the Knicks are doing of course, rendering everything but the NBA Finals useless just sucks.

Was his coach telling him to wind sprint in the opposite direction anytime any opposing player SMELLED the lane? Please. Let this die. Hustling is not just ensuring you're racking up double doubles.
I'll take Jorts' foul count over a 6'9 PF who wouldn't stop you from making a layup, but would jump over the entire opposing team to get that 10th rebound. Hustle is not a selective trait.
Lee made Gallo look like Bill Russell.
