You were right. No issue saying I was wrong. Lebron got these dudes to sign up again. Really didn’t see it happening at this age. I wouldn’t. About the only thing I really didn’t consider is how many regular season minutes these guys see looking at bigger contracts. Still think they’re dumb if they’re young and have other options. Miami rescinded Nunn straight up, but they’re on border of hard cap, so just business decision for them.

He is dude who fought his way up from G League and, I’m pretty sure, is consider good at defense and improved efficiency both years. Heat, I’d have to think, hated to let him go. Seems like their type. I didn’t watch him a lot, but seems really solid.


About the only thing is every guy they signed besides Nunn sucks at defense. Like real bad. AD staying healthy is literally everything. I’d be hesitant to hardly play him regular season. It’s going to be a high scoring DNP regular season, but if healthy, I can’t see who beats them in playoffs until Nets. Nets added Mills, which is really good, so rich get richer per usual.
Nunn? My understanding is he barely played last season down the stretch except when he had to because players were hurt because he sucks at defense which isn't entirely his fault, as he is short and has a slim frame. My understanding (mainly from listening to Simmons and Rusillo) is that Spoelstra hated how much he had to play him because of his D and couldn't wait to replace him. I looked up his height and Wiki says he is 6'2" 190. I would guess that is an exaggeration on both fronts.

From what I saw, he is basically a poor man's Lou Williams. I don't think the Lakers can play him and Westbrook together, but I am sure Westbrook will miss a bunch of games due to injuries/rest so he can fill in. The news report says he turned down more money from other teams, which is crazy to me as I think he could be out of the league in a couple years.
Nunn will be out of the league in a couple years? He's played 2 years and averaged 15 ppg and is a good shooter. Was all NBA rookie first team.
