The Miami Herald is reporting that there’s a chance that Scottie Pippen, who recently announced his intent to rejoin the NBA, could land with the Miami Heat.

For those of you keeping track at home, the Heat roster currently features the following players and ages: Gary Payton, 38, Alonzo Mourning, 37, Eddie Jones, 35, Shaquille O’Neal, who turns 35 next month. What’s next? I mean, are the Heatin negotiation in Shawn “The Death Stick” Bradley?

I’m not going to blast Pippen for coming back or criticize him for “ruining his legacy” or any of the other reasons people don’t like to see players come out of retirement. If he actually believes he can still play at a high level and wants to give it a shot, I say ‘Why Not?’ If he, or anyone for that matter, thinks that he’s going to log serious minutes and make any kind of significant impact on the floor, they’re nuts.
