The Heat are looking for ways to free up cap space in an effort to sign Dwyane Wade. One option they're considering is trading Chris "Birdman" Andersen and Mario Chalmers.
Mario Chalmers has been on the Heat since he was drafted in the 2008-09 season. Chris Andersen was brought in during the middle of the 2012-13 season. Neither of their pasts matter, however, because now they could be shipped off to a new team.
Dwyane Wade is becoming more and more interested in signing with the Lakers. He would get more money there, as we don't have much cap space to sign him. But the Heat won't go down easy, so they are now doing all they can to get D-Wade back where he belongs. And one way to do that is free up some cap space by getting rid of a few players. And Mario Chalmers and Birdman are the ones on the chopping block.
Mario Chalmers was a second round pick for the Heat in the 2008 draft (their first round pick was Michael Beasley, who would be cut by the Heat for a while but was resigned) and was very successful. He eventually became the starting point guard. Birdman is known for his mohawk and many tattoos, not to mention his great plays on offense and defense. However, neither of them have had more of an impact then Dwyane, who led the Heat to the 2006 ring and helped win the 2012 and 2013 championships too. So now, it's clear ANYTHING can happen this offseason. We just have to wait and see!
