how did miami get whiteside?

[Mr.Kite]

was it a pick they used themselves?

He was on the Grizzlies earlier in the season. They then released him and the Heat picked him up after he put up some big numbers in the d league.

Miami didn't "get" Wiltside, Wiltside simply chose the Heat to be the recipient of his awesomeness.

Better than Peak Shaq, they even employ hack-a-shaq on him.

[PJR]

Collusion.

Kid played a heck of a game again tonight. 5 blocks to go along with an efficient shooting night + active on the glass. Impressive stuff.

Where'd this guy come from? He was trash when he got drafted to the Kings. Now he's all of a sudden a straight beast? WTF?

There was a former I think Suns front office guy on Lebotard other day saying Whiteside was basically a quote "jackazz" when he came into the league and the stigma was hard to shake. Hit rock bottom, went to europe and i guess got his brain together.

He has to work on not fouling so much so he can play more Minutes.

Tarik Black, Hassan Whiteside

I love it when some random guys come out of nowhere and start to beast Good for the Heat.

This guy's draftexpress is pretty impressive. 9'5 standing reach and a no-step vert similar to max vert... ultimate traits of an elite shot blocker/ rim protector. I'll admit I didn't know where this guy came from, but how did scouts paid to look at players 24/7 miss this guy? It's not like he's Ben Wallace who got passed up on because he's 6'6 or something. He can run the floor too? WTF
