I have to applaud Haslem for doing this. Other teams, notably Cleveland and Atlanta, offered him between 10-15 million more over the course of the contract. However, he decided to be loyal to the team that gave him his "first chance". He also wanted to stay home and play where he grew up. For those of you who don't know, Haslem won a championship at Miami High. In the age of the athlete who just takes as much money as possible, even it it means losing game after game, Udonis Haslem should be applauded for re-upping with the Heat.
