Miami Heat: The Litmus Test Of Correctness On Letting Jae Crowder Walk

The Miami Heat chose not to give Jae Crowder the years he wanted, thus letting him walk. Here’s the litmus test on whether that was the correct move.

The Miami Heat had a good free agency period. I know, I know.

Some of you are reading this and wondering, “How?”. Right, I get it.

But think about it? The Miami Heat added two guys who fit the culture, filled a need from last season by bringing in a guy who could not only be their answer to guarding opposing lead guards but who could also flat out be a stopper, while also adding a guy that, though, doesn’t equate to Crowder from behind the arc, does offer everything else he offered.

Avery Bradley comes to the Miami Heat as a guy who has somewhat been through it all. He has been on the young up and coming teams. He has been the guy traded as apart of salary matches or salary dumps.

He has experienced being on bad teams and losing seasons. He has also experienced redemption.

Once you throw in the fact that by signing Bradley, you weakened the Los Angeles Lakers simultaneously, it was a win-win move. Then you have Maurice Harkless.
