florida really is the place to retire...

Go to Miami and u can roate with Penny at SF......

Does Allan Houston even play defense or did he only have to play offense in NY & the same w/Penny.

While it was years ago, he wasn't horrible on D. Then again, he had Ewing behind him ...

god,what the hell r the heat doing?????????

why dont hte heat bring back glen rice?im serious.hes a fan favorite and with shaq inside he can still bury it from outside.he doesnt have bad knees like penny or houston and not as old as reggie miller.

All new Heat players must attend AARP meetings.

So .. when are they gonna offer a contract to Scottie Pippen?

Christ....wtf are the heat thinking? Why are they assembling a geriatric team?

no they're assembling a 90's all star team..you got mourning, shaq, penny, houston too bad they cut payton now they have gotta get reggie, webber or pippen too complete the line up...

Houston has never played for Riley. He came to the Knicks for the 96-97 season. Riley's last season with the Knicks was 94-95.

i know hoston is a vols alm but i hated him when he was a knick. i wonder if miami fans can forvive him for destroying s in those playoff series

Great!! Houston to heat! I must also remind Riley that Webber and Juan Howard are also available!!! A pity Miller pulled out. Would have been great to wattch:
Shaq, Webber, Houston, Miller, Payton and WALKER 'play' together !! hehehehe - I meant play senior ball :-)

Houston was never that great in NY, once they gave him that fat contract. He played better ball in Detroit.

Why do we keep talking about these 40 somethings in the NBA? There is no way that any of them are going to actually make a comeback.

Another media-fabricated "story".

lol, the heat are making a big mistake i think picking up houstan... but if its cheap and short contract, what is really the harm... i honestly think they are making their line-up worse but obviously they don't have much cap space or possible movable players to make some offerings... doesn't matter, they are just setting themselves for the playoffs not to be contenders anyways... i think riley just doesn't want to be blamed for their unsuccessful season the coming year

I think he mismanaged his money and is just looking for another one of those guaranteed contracts.

I believe he should just stay on ESPN's roster. The game is too fast for him.

um ... great story but Houston never played for the knicks when Riley was the coach?

Allan houston played better ball in NY than detroit
