I'm rooting for him but I also have to call it like I see it. He struggled badly for the Heat during their playoff run, to the point where he was playing on the third pair in pretty limited minutes.

That was a severe knee injury he had. Takes a long time to come back but you wonder how much it permanently affects his skating. You think that has much to do with it?
