he is about to be on 790 the ticket, Miami's sports radio station
 
.-.
all the Miami media members that cover the Heat talking about how impressive he is in dealing with the media and his responses, during his interview with 790 he was even going through actual plays that Miami already runs and how he would fit in the Heat's offense. lol, one of the guys filling in for Leba*ard said after one interview he already knows he's more mature than Beasley.

How fitting that Bazz has a halo above his head, though with a ball of fire as well. The symbolism is just great! ;)

It would be better if it was a set of Testiculos.
 
Anyone know when the Heat schedule for next season will be released? In cruising in Feb out of Fort Lauderdale. Would love to catch a game.

I want to see them play Charlotte, which is a game I never imagined I would care about in a million years.

UConn taking up the PG positions in Charlotte and Miami. Gotta love how we'll be dominating ACC turf for a while.

Boatwright to the hawks?
 
good read on how Bazz should fit into the Heat's system, there's more in the link, just pasting the opening

Shabazz Napier is a remarkable player.
If all you did was watch random segments of Napier’s game film over his four years at the University of Connecticut, you would notice a ton of jumpers off the dribble. Almost half of his long-distance attempts last year, in fact, came off the bounce. For those of you who swear by the Code of Efficiency, each of those jumpers would raise another red flag. How can a team be successful, much less win multiple National Championships, while depending on so many shots that shrug in the face of efficiency?
Napier, somehow, was as efficient as they come. As he shouldered more and more of the offensive load during his career, his true-shooting percentage spiked – topping .590 over his past two seasons. We can’t make direct 1:1 comparisons between college and the professional level, but for comparison’s sake that .590 mark would have been among the Top 20 in the league this season. At the very least, it’s a good starting point.

Watching the video, a couple things stand out to me.

The heat did a lousy job setting up the press conference. Impossible to hear the questions, and they didn't recap the question before answering, often leaving you trying to figure out what Spo or Bazz was talking about for a bit.

Bazz cleans up especially well. Looked more like a business man than an athlete. Anyone notice that Baz is the only one in the picture wearing a tie?

Bazz is amazingly well spoken and humble. There is none of the 'hood in his public persona. Actually reminds me of Ray in that regard.

The heat mgmt appears to be very, very high on the kid.

I miss him already.
