A: Understand that the Heat wanted nothing more than to make it work with Josh McRoberts, kept going back to that drawing board to maximize the possibilities of a high-post passing big man who could also defend opposing centers. Had Josh remained healthy, the Heat: 1. Might not have had to spend on Olynyk. 2. Might not have had to forfeit all of the money they could throw into a 2017-18 trade, as they did in the McRoberts deal to Dallas. 3. Might not have had to take on these next two seasons on the contract of A.J. Hammons, who is redundant with this roster. I had shied from such Olynyk-McRoberts comparisons, because I felt it would be taken as some sort of disrespect toward Kelly. But there also are differences. First, Kelly has far more solid build to defend muscular big men in the post. Second, he sees nothing wrong with the simple pass, which wasn't always the case with McRoberts. This roster was built to work with McRoberts' skill set, which is why it has been such a seamless transition to Kelly's game. Clearly, Pat Riley favors big men with big passing games and big hair games.
