There was some good news Monday, with the team announcing that forward Dorell Wright, who had missed the previous three games with a sprained ankle, was on the way to Minnesota and is expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves.

How funny that you bash yet again on Walker(subtle shot however) but Wolves lost KG and are Rebuilding, Miami are supposed to "contend"
Wolves have all the reasons to be the worst team in the league, but Miami dosen't have any excuse to be the 2nd worst team
So even if we don't like it Miami is worst with Walker gone, even though Posey and Kapono gone too didn't help
Miami's worst with Ricky Davis in he's a Marbury. Team that Ricky touches team that sucks instanty

Its not Ricky's fault the Heat are doing so poorly. The Heat as a whole are performing miserably, which is nullifying any offensive impact he brings. The Heat could replace Ricky with Smush and they would still have the same record. Sorry, but the Heat's current record isn't a testament to Walker being greater than Ricky.

Miami's so bad, is unfair to blame it on Ricky alone but pl like t use one player as a scapegoat so I used Ricky the same way ppl used Walker
If you seen well Miami lost a whole bunch of games in the 4th quarter and Ricky Davis sucks in the 4th that's a scientific fact, he's takn so many stupid shots especially in the 4th that costs us games so a good load of our losses fall into Ricky shoulders like it or not

I know we're bad...but only 1.5 favorites at Minnesota? I'm looking through my Heat goggles, but I don't know how the hell we don't cover that against the worst team in the league...
I'm dropping the money I won on LSU on the Heat.

With no Shaq and a banged up Wade, we're strong candidates for worst team in the league ourselves. Not much of a surprise. Unless of course Riley unleashes the secret weapon "light em up Luke" tonight.

Compared to Ricky every single shot Walker took as a Heat seemed like a stupid forced up shot. Even his free throws were nearly guaranteed to miss. His performance last season was so poor he became nothing but a black hole that didn't contribute throughout the game. Ricky at least contributes during the first to third quarter with his offense keeping the Heat close in the game until his IQ comes into play and he throws the game away.
Ricky is playing the way Heat fans expected Walker to play which is to become a reliable third scoring option with some decision making issues. All Walker had was inconsistency and low basketball IQ.
