Since when if the NBA 3-point champ considered a 12th man? Cook, Dorrell, Haslem, James Jones and even Joel would be more than a 12th man on the Raptors. This team filled with 12th men and rookie around one player was good enough to be the 5th seed in the playoffs last year while the Raptors were sitting at home with their star thinking if he even wanted to stay there. So don't come here and start talking smack about our team having no talent and being a bunch of scrubs when your squad can't even make the playoffs. Our "core" is obviously doing something right when they're making the playoffs. Like Poe said, Beasley's minutes depend on his defense. Spo doesn't mess around with Beasley and much like Riley would do he'll sit him if he isn't playing defense. In a year like 2010 with all the potential free agents, yes, a contender can be built easily. Our long term plans include Wade, another superstar, Beasley, Chalmers, Cook and hopefully Udonis, Dorrell and Joel Anthony. Wade lobbied for Q to come to Miami because they are best friends. Wade, Dorrell and Q are all extremely close. Jermaine O'Neal is playing exceptional right now so I don't think Wade is being "forced" to play with anyone. One player doesn't make an entire roster. It takes a team with good chemistry, a good foundation and consistency to win which is what the Heat has right now and will only improve after free agency this summer. Riley did the right thing. Are you really going to question Pat Riley as a GM? I think his resume speaks for itself. Why waste your money on two overrated players in Boozer and Stoudemire when in 2010 you can land either Bosh or LeBron and keep Wade.
