He's not very good, but in really limited minutes at the minimum he wouldn't be a bad investment. It's not like there are defensive fives in this FA class beating their door down to play for minimum anyways.

Right now the Heat are going all in on Rashard Lewis. He is No. 1 on Miami's list. Expect the VIP treatment for Lewis in meeting tomorrow
Rashard without a stupidly large contract could be a nice addition to the Heat.

Heat need to go after Downtown Devin Brown
This means they can opt not to play small and still have guys to space the floor.
A lineup with LeBron as a point forward 3 and Lewis at the 4 would still be deadly.
money down the drain
If Mike Miller can help them win the last game of the finals when he's barely able to walk, there's no doubt a 6'10" Rashard Lewis can bring something to this team. He'll be happy to join up with his old friend and teammate Ray Allen again.
The Heat will be difficult to beat. Fortunately, they play in the east.
Anyone saying it's a bad move. He's 6'10 shooter at the minimum, definitely an upgrade over Curry, Howard and Joel. At the four, he will draw out the opposing bigs spacing the floor.
It's not going to be that bad of a move with the contract that they're going to throw at him now.
Hey, remember when Pop traded Rasho's soft ass for Matt Bonner?
Yeah and he led us to a championship tbh.
yeah but at least they didn't end up paying him 100m in 5 years
magic
tiest contract ever
Lewis on a minimum contract is the definition of a low risk, high reward play.
With Allen, Battier and hopefully a healthy Miller next year, Lewis will just be taking up space. He's also pretty horrible at this point. I'd rather want Camby. Sure Camby is not a tud himself at this point, but I'd rather have another bigman at the floor than Joel Anthony tbh.
Riles is falling in love with perimeter players after the Heat displayed that awesome 3 point bomb show in the Finals. I'd rather have another solid big man after signing Ray Allen for insurance just in case Bosh or Haslem goes down.
agree 100%, if we can only sign one of them i'd like it to be camby rather than lewis, im sick of haslem playing 5 tbh. even though camby is a bit too old, he still has alot to provide and would be a decent #3 or #4 option to use in the paint. and of course, it'd be ing awesome if we get them both, lewis with his size & shooting rage will be a matchup nightmare to the opposing teams
Camby canceled the meeting with the Heat because they could no longer offer more than the minimum. Don't want a money chasing 39yr old. He's likely to break down half the season.
I doubt they are going all in on Lewis. The article is a lie. We get what we want.
Small ball with Lebron at the 4 is deadly. The only potential risk is LA. Even then Lebron can hold his own on defense against Pau.
Reuniting Lewis and Allen. I wonder if they were good friends.
And what you apparently want is Shard Lewis, B...

Bell and Lewis. Both are washed up pieces of .
