THE TRUTH ABOUT EDDIE

It’s common in media to see the Miami Heat linked to trade talks involving Eddie Jones, while no player on a losing team is ‘untradeable’, there is some misdirection going on with regards to the Miami Heat that involve Eddie. The truth is Pat Riley and his coaching staff are very high on Eddie Jones as a person and a player, and despite reports saying they have entertained trades involving him, Brian Grant is the only major contract the Heat would like to shed, and no one is going to help them do that without a premium. The Miami Heat offensive system is very tough to learn, there is very little margin for error and players typically need to be in top condition, this has not been the case for Jones who missed 19 games his first season in Miami. Eddie did well in his second season playing in 81 games, but returned to the bench with injuries last year missing almost half the season. Despite injuries, when Eddie has played he’s played well, averaging better than 18 points a game as a member of the Heat, something he did only once prior in his 9 year NBA career. Eddie is delivering for Miami, and they will admit to it, the problem is surrounding him with players that can play and keeping him healthy. If injuries prove to be a problem this season it’s not a stretch to say he gets shopped at the trade deadline, or dangled to the Charlotte Bobcats in the expansion draft, the pending arrival of Lamar Odom, may put added pressure on Jones, but if he’s healthy, he’s a keeper.

good thing because i just bought a swingman and don't want to see him get traded.

the problem is surrounding him with players that can play

exactly. and he's healthy. it's just sprained ankles which happens. not a broken leg or anything.

hurt wade from growing more? he's playing the 1. even if he wasn't, the guy is a rookie. it's not like he's a 3rd year player or anything and has the talent but haven't had significant playing time. on top of this, jones can be a mentor to wade and all the young players. we need more guys like this and less guys who get charged w/ battery. what's his name again? on yeah, glenn robinson.

I feel that he'll be traded before the end of next season. He hasnt done nothing for him. I see the Heat going in a different direction. Rebuilding without him and his contract.
