Pat Stood Pat

I'm actually relieved that the Heat did not make any moves before the deadline. As it stands, Miami still has the most cap space for the offseason in the entire NBA. I didn't think Booz or Amare would have made that much of a difference really. (Plus 5 or 6 in the W column perhaps?) Besides the cap space, I really didn't want the Heat to part with either Beasley or Wright - good production for cheap contracts.
Of course, all of these will be moot if we don't get Wade and another max contract-worthy player or if... gasp... Wade bolts.
(Take note of maximum contract "worthy" - a few players will be worthy of a max contract, James, Bosh, Wade ... but another group will get max contracts but really should just be a notch under it, Joe Johnson, Amare, etc..)
Go Heat!
