It's all about the money, Senior Dukie....

DAT excerpt:

"First of all, unless the Heat renounce their rights to Dwyane Wade, NBA salary cap rules will preclude them from offering Whiteside his full market value. Miami would be able to offer between $8-9 million, which is at least half of what the kid can get on the open market. On a full max deal, Whiteside would be looking at a $90 million payday, and nobody walks away from a $90 million payday.

So he’s a goner, one way or another. And the Heat know it."

Basically, they looking at Whiteside like, "U NOT WORTH NO $90 MIL...We can find someone already on a contract that can block shots and rebound and get something for u before u bolt...."
