Magloire or Blount. I hate to say Blount, but I did. Obviously, my first choice is a defensive minded veteran like Magloire. BUT, should he not be conditioned enough, give it to Blount. Definitely NOT Beasley, and definitely not Haslem. Haslem is a PF who can play spot minutes at Center when we run small ball(Cook, Wade, Jones,Marion,Haslem). BUT, he's a PF. Putting him at PF backup ensures a solid fall back for a shaky rookie that Beasley might be for the first half of the year.

I say Blount because despite his lack of rebounding and defense, the guy can score. AND, he can score outside of the post. Him in the lineup leaves a gaping defensive hole, but it also creates offense. I know, defense is a priority for all teams..I agree. BUT, if Beasley learns how to score on the low block quickly and learns how to do it efficiently-there's our low post scorer. With Blount outside the 14 foot area, Beasley's got the wholw post to himself to adapt and learn.

I say Magloire because he's a seasoned veteran, knows how to be a shot-blocking threat, and takes up space and isn't afraid to take a hit. A defensive center. If he conditions and really shows he wants to get back into NBA form and put in a few solid years, then we need to give him a shot. If not, then he's a backup defender.

Zo won't be back by the beginning of the season, and even when he returns, I don't think we'll ask him to start

Your right Blount is also a great option at the center spot...Hope both Blount and Magloire work hard before the season starts. If they be on good shape and fill-in their deficiencies, Heat will be tough to beat...Let's support them guys for our heat...
