    The Heat are unlikely to swing any trades from now until the start of the season, writes Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.

    J.R. Smith and Rudy Fernandez are available on the NBA trade market.

    Winderman writes that the Heat don't have many trade chips.

    By NBA rule, any free agent signed in the offseason cannot be traded until Dec. 15.

    The exceptions are draft picks, who can be dealt 30 days after signing.

    That means Miami has just two players that can be traded currently: Mario Chalmers and Dexter Pittman.

    Ah but close to that All-Star Break, that hasn't been ruled out.

    I'm not sure they make any moves this year but I think more importantly I want to see what the new CBA is like. Since the NBA cap actually went up this year things can't be so bad.

    Actually Miami have a lot of money to spend, I don't get it why they let Beasly go, they would have enough money for him, no problem. Or have I missed out something?

    They had to get rid of Beasley in order to sign Miller/Haslem/etc. I believe. ; )
