This is a wild pick but provided the Heat can’t re-sign Dragic, the team once again lacks a point guard playmaker.

While the team could continue to start Mario Chalmers at point guard, it wouldn’t be in the best interest of the team. The Heat need a true playmaking point guard and Dragic has displayed the impact a ball distributor at the point can have in this offense.

Rajon Rondo’s best days are behind him although he is just 29 years of age. The Dallas Mavericks aren’t likely to re-sign Rondo as he’s already clashed with head coach Rick Carlisle and is shooting an atrocious 34 percent from the free-throw line.

Though Rondo can be a problem child, the Heat could sign the veteran point guard to a short-term bargain deal in the offseason.

Can you imagine a lineup featuring Rondo, Dwyane Wade, Deng, Bosh and Whiteside?
