A few years ago, Mario Chalmers was a fan favorite among Heat fans. He provided solid help for the Heat during their two championship runs in recent years. But last year in particular, not many seem to have use for you. And if Norris Cole played well, people were calling for his job. All of the contributed to him not knowing if he’d be back.
“I didn’t think I’d be back,” Chalmers said. “I didn’t think that at all. I didn’t even think the Heat would want me back, to be honest. That’s how I felt like my playoff performance was, that they didn’t want me back, they wanted to go another direction. So that was in my mind, too, but I was, like, if it happens, it happens.”
