The Portland Trail Blazers acquired Hassan Whiteside from the Miami Heat via trade this past offseason. On Wednesday, Shandel Richardson of The Athletic asked him whether he left his old team on bad terms.
"I feel like everything I say nowadays is kind of twisted and it's like, 'He's saying this about the Heat.' No, I'm not. I don't have anything to say about them. It was great. Miami is a great place to live. I still got my house there. Coach (Erik Spoelstra), Pat, we're good. I chose them over several other teams before I signed a new contract.
