Always amusing how talented players never are "fits" for the Heat
Ibaka would look great there. As would a Duncan, as would a Gasol so on and so forth.
You can keep your dumb generalization that was not made by me to yourself.

You act like Lowry sucks or something... he would be the 2nd best player on that team behind LBJ. And is 1 of the best rebounding PGs in the NBA. And adding him would take some of the load off of LBJ. '
But, this wont happen anyways. Toronto wont let Lowry leave. They are gonna pay him. And he deserves it. Actually, getting Lowry for $10m a year is a pretty good deal.

You made a dumb statement and now you're trying to flip it into something else?
Lowry is a massive upgrade over Mario Chalmers. Are you making up shite and arguing with yourself while pretending I said it?
Please do.

So a massive upgrade but not a "fit."

I think he was talking more about a waste of talent because he wants the ball more than he would get it with Wade and James.
Which could be true, but it also could be false if James wants to step back next year and just facilitate rather than be the star. But I don't see that happening to any large degree.

I guess you're too dense to understand. I mean I already explained it in a previous post. There are far bigger needs on that team than a PG... which would be a luxury. Filling that position with a 10+ million dollar player at PG leaves them completely bare down low. So, while he is a massive upgrade at PG, at the rate and position that he plays, with players such as Lebron and Wade dominating the ball, he doesn't exactly fit.
You get it yet? No? Just read it over and over. Then over and over and over again.

No other position than PG were the heat exploited more but they have bigger needs?
Lowry would be a steal at $10 mil dude

Lowry is meh to me since Lebron handles the ball so much.
They need a true big man or another versatile wing player that can hit shots before they need a PG.

They were abused down low the most. They had no answer for Thiago fricking Splitter let alone Tim Duncan.
They had goofy footed Birdman covering their Center, that tells you all you need to know right there. They need an athletic big to clog up the middle for when Tony Parker drives the lane in game 7 of the NBA Finals 2015.

Dude, if you think he's a logical fit there, power to you. They could always start Greg Oden down low next season and maybe they could hit the jackpot in the draft too.

kige that mostly (except ragging on Bird man since he's also a steal at 1.5 million).
but I don't see the Knicks and Heat swapping Wade for Chandler so I expect the Heat to still be vulnerable to a balanced team like the Spurs

Oh I def agree they need help at both spots, PG and a big.
And LBJ is great at ball handling. But thats also why I think they need a legit PG... that way LBJ wont have to do everything and have the ball at all times. Im in no way a Heat fan... but I do feel for LBJ. He left Cleveland because he didnt have any help. He gets to Miami... and nothings really changed. He still has to lead his team in ppg, rebs, assists, steals, and guards the other teams top player just so they can have a chance at winning. He pretty much has to be near a triple double for them to have the chance at being successful. Hes carrying that entire team. Getting a PG, like a Lowry, would help keep LBJ fresh and he wouldnt have to do everything like he does right now.
And, in regards to a post player, I dont think they really need a big name post guy. I never thought I would say this, but a guy like Reggie Evans would be perfect for them. A big that is physical in the paint and a beast on the boards. Thats what they need IMO. A guy that can battle in the paint and hold his own and be a rebounding machine.
But, I dont see them getting Lowry. They really need just as much help at the PG spot as they do in the post. I just think getting a PG would take some of the responsibilities off of LBJ and he wouldnt have to literally do everything / have the ball in his hands at all time. They need help at both spots though.

The fuk am I reading? Splitter didn't do shite against the heat. Check the game log.
The series was lost at the point position.

he would be the 2nd best player on that team behind LBJ.

You act like Lowry sucks or something

Maybe Lebron should adjust his playing style so players other than shooters are "fits"
