Wade’s Most Coveted Teammate: Dwight Howard (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=tsn-wadesmostcovetedteam&prov=tsn&type=lgns)

Heat guard Dwyane Wade might not leave South Florida when he becomes a free agent next summer. He could choose to stay in Miami, especially if the team brings in another marquee player.
But, until then, he’ll continue to get asked about his future (as will LeBron James), especially along every stop on the road. Such was the case Wednesday, when Wade was asked which player he’d really like to play with before the team’s game in Orlando.
"If I could pick one player in the league today to play with — and most people think I’d say LeBron James — I would pick Dwight (Howard)," Wade told AOL FanHouse. "I’d love for that to happen at some point. Dwight is already close right here in Orlando. People who say it couldn’t happen (us playing on the same team), they don’t know. I’ve learned in this league that anything is possible."
Wade said playing with a dominant center “changes the whole game.” He also said that even though he wants to stay in Miami, that “there are a lot of possibilities” with free agency.
Magic coach Stan Van Gundy, assuming Wade will not be on his roster next year, had his own friendly advice, according to the Orlando Sentinel. "I would really suggest …West," Van Gundy laughed. "I like him. I’m concerned about him. If he doesn’t go back to Miami, the West would be his best bet."
