STILL WILL defend that contract.
 
I was hoping Toronto would give up on him already and put him in the Jack deal. The Hornets would never take his contract, though.

I don't find it beneficial to pay a dude that kind of money and play him less than 20 minutes a game in favor of the worst offensive player in the league.

I've never seen someone let the ball roll to keep the clock still, and the other team actually steal it.

But CP3 actually wins the jump ball.

Worst? I don't know. He's absolutely terrible no doubt. But when you have guys like DJ MBenga and DeSanaga Diop in the league...

Amir is definitely a ton better than Reggie though... I mean Reggie is a BEASTLY rebounder, but it's not like Amir is bad himself.

[h1]Hurt Haslem sidelined at least until late February[/h1]
The torn ligament in the left foot of Miami Heat forward Udonis Haslem(notes) will at least keep him out until the All-Star break in February – and possibly for a significant portion of the regular season, a league source told Yahoo! Sports on Sunday night.Haslem will be examined by a foot specialist Monday, and that doctor will make a recommendation on whether the Heat’s top inside presence will need surgery to repair the injury. Nevertheless, the Heat and Haslem are prepared for the fact that late February and probably March are likely his earliest possible returns to the floor. If surgery is needed, the recovery could push into the spring.

Haslem suffered the injury in a loss to the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday night. An MRI confirming the torn ligament was performed on Sunday in Miami.

Haslem has averaged 8.0 points and 8.2 rebounds in 13 games for the Heat, who will miss his toughness on the boards and defensive interior. The Heat will have to turn to Zydrunas Illgauskas to play more minutes in the frontcourt and use lineups that will include LeBron James(notes) at power forward.

Free-agent center Erick Dampier(notes) is still available, but Heat president Riley has only shown modest interest in him. The Heat have been willing to use point guard Mario Chalmers(notes) as a trading chip, but that had mostly been with an eye on adding another veteran point guard, front office sources said.

As if point guards and big men couldn't salivate enough at playing Miami's interior defense before...
