Not only can any team get him, but Miami doesn't even have the money to pay him the Max, unless they shed a lot of contracts

Is this true? My understanding was they were able to get below the repeater tax threshold in order to try and sign Durant in the offseason through trades and waiving players.

No it's not true. As far as I know the biggest contracts on the books after this year are dragic, bosh and mcbob plus the two rookies. Obviously they will try to shed mcroberts but the heat have 5 players on the books for next year.

They have like 42 million in cap space, but that has to cover Deng, Wade and Whiteside, + JJ and Amare + cap holds to fill out the rest of the team.
Basically they need to shed Deng and then hope they can get Wade on a cheaper contract and forget about JJ and Amare to sign Whiteside. Heat need to make some tough decisions.

It looks like Miami only has five guys under contract next year, which means they're pretty well situated to be under the cap if a guy like Durant is available and they want to renounce their cap holds for all of their free agents.

If they want to retain the general core of the team they have now — including Wade — then that cap space gets gobbled up in a hurry and Whiteside is harder to squeeze in. Presumably they wouldn't be too eager to go into next season with Bosh/Wade/Whiteside/Dragic/McRoberts/Winslow/Ricardson and a bunch of floatsam

Spurs are so lucky that they get to try to fix their broken offense against a d league team through the first round.

Because they really aren't a whole lot better than the Grizzlies right now. They can't loving score.
