Finley Miami Bound?
Please not Miami
Quote:
|
The Mavericks may release Finley under the one-time amnesty waiver opportunity, which frees Dallas of any luxury-tax liability incurred by Finley's remaining $51.8 million of salary over the next three years. Phoenix may have a bigger problem than the timing of the Johnson ordeal because industry insiders believe Finley is bound for Miami either way.

Please Dallas, don't let Finley walk and go to a team like Miami. That might just seal the deal for a team like them.

Re: Finley Miami Bound?
This is exactly the type of scenario that should prevent Dallas from just flat out cutting Finley. Yeah, you may save a ton of money, but you also might just give another team a championship by doing this. Finley can't singlehandedly win a championship for a team, but adding him onto a team like Detroit, Miami, or Phoenix would almost be the icing on the cake.

Re: Finley Miami Bound?
Yea we cant release him and let him go to a team that will hinder our chances for a championship. Trade him or keep him. Why dont we just keep him until the trade deadline.

Re: Finley Miami Bound?
Who would be stupid enough to take Finley's contract?(well Memphis did take such a player in EJ)
I think he still will go to Phoenix where they most likey will get him more minutes.

Re: Finley Miami Bound?
I dont think the Mavs will release. But if they do then Whichever team offers more money is the team he's going to.

Re: Finley Miami Bound?
and the one with the higher chance of being championship bound, and the place where he will get minutes. So I'm guessing Miami would be better for him

Re: Finley Miami Bound?
Christie has reportedly agreed with the Mavs on a contract, so Finley can officially start packing his bags now.

Re: Finley Miami Bound?
It looks like we will be releasing Finley now that we got Christie. I hope I'm wrong.

Re: Finley Miami Bound?
Supposedly Brian Grant is also looking at Phoenix and Miami as options to sign after being axed from the Lakers. If he's healthy he could provide a good back up choice, but I don't see how Miami could have room for him. They'd be stacked with veterans at the forward and center position.

Re: Finley Miami Bound?
I heard that the Mavs are looking at a few other bigmen such as DeSagana Diop, Mikki Moore or Ervin Johnson to serve as Erick Dampier's backup.

**** this amnesty **** is really pissing me off now; just encourages coat-tail riding and make already stacked teams even worse.
