UD deserves this man. regardless of his lack of on court production he means a lot to the organization

[@Si-ni1wk]

I agree that he means a lot to the organisation but he should have been taken off the active roster and incorporate within the coaching staff or the front office or/and community outreach programme years ago. What all of the people here giving me grief for what I pointed out fail to realise is that he took up a roster spot for all of these years when he wasn't playing. I’m sure you can all realise that roster spot could have come in handy...

@Boxing Fan Haslem said multiple times that he’s not interested in being a full time coach. Although the last 6-7 years he’s been like an unofficial Heat player assistant coach

[@CmoreCash28sbG]

He's been a player/coach the last 5 seasons so his transition would be smooth. 😂

[@VILJL]

Haslem, who turns 43 on June 9, has spent his entire NBA career with the Heat and currently holds the longest streak by any active player with only one team in the league. Haslem is only the third player to spend an entire NBA career lasting at least 20 seasons with one team. The others on that short list are Dirk Nowitzki (21 seasons with Dallas Mavericks) and Kobe Bryant (20 seasons with Los Angeles Lakers), and Haslem is the only one to do it in his hometown. He played high school ball for Miami High and attended the University of Florida. He went undrafted in the 2002 NBA draft and then signed as a free agent with the Miami Heat on August 6, 2003 and have been with the HEAT ever since.

I grew up watching the Miami Heat especially in 2006 when D-Wade, Mourning, Shaq and UD won the 2006 Championship over the Mavs. Haslem stayed loyal to the Miami Heat for 20 seasons. Despite his lack of playing time and taking massive pay cuts to get better players around him that is a true player. I am glad he had a good final game. He won 3 chips with the Miami Heat for staying loyal. You rarely see that in todays day in age.
