Did the Miami Heat allow money to get in the way when it came to re-signing Dru Smith and trading Haywood Highsmith?

The Heat opted to sign Smith instead of a backup center such as Kai Jones, who auditioned for Miami last week, or veteran center Trey Lyes, who also has been linked to the Heat. Miami isn't expected to add a backup center in free agency anytime soon, though it's conceivable that could be addressed with another trade.
