Talks between Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat have stalled. It looks like Pat Riley doesn't want to give Wade the max, or will try to sign Whiteside first and use the BIRD on D Wade.
This could be a case of his agents trying to force the hand of the Heat, but I wouldnt be surprised if he left. Imagine him on the Spurs... YES
I would, absolutely, but he's probably looking for too much money.
For lazy ass OP
He's leaving cause he wants to be paid big time. Spurs won't be able to do that. Or they at least shouldn't.
Because you can't just take my word for it? Calling me lazy when you're probably fatter than the Atlanta Hawks version of DiawQuote:

This. The only reason I'd see him leaving Miami is because they're expecting/asking him to take too large of a discount. He'd likely have to take even less to come here.Quote:

Wade's not coming here :lol. Furthermore, I don't think any team is going to give him the contract he seeks. He likely stays in Miami when it's all said and done.
You need to relax. All I posted was that he has interest in the Spurs and mavs. Why the hell should I have to copy / paste a source for a rumor anyways? The point is IT'S A RUMOR. It could be true or false with or without a source. And I'm on my phone. Have fun sitting on your computer and copy / pasting tweets all day on Spurs Talk along with your other 18,000 copy / pastesQuote:

I think I'll pass on Wade after seeing how LDN just completely shut him down in the Finals two years ago.
He's actually a good fit for Dallas. And for irony.
as much as i would like him here its BS tbh
Why? Are they in the market for washed up guards who can't shoot the three?Quote:

Man, I love wade but I'm afraid he wants Kevin Durant money. At his age, that's not possible
Today's Wade :lolQuote:

No. We already have old Manu.
A SG that can shoot and finish at the rim AND create his own shot. Not bad at defense either. Would be a huge upgrade over Verde imo

I would love to see Wade as a Spur but not gonna happen. Actually it's disgusting how Agents use the Spurs as leverage. WTF.
I would love to have him. He probably feels insulted by Riley bc he's still their most significant creator and scorer and he maxed both Bosh (who is injured and unable to play, but nobody would have known that at the time), and Dragic. Riley is now looking to max Whiteside. D.Wade has probably had enough and I am thinking if he's considering of taking less money (bc Riley won't max him), he would rather take that less money (still might seem like a lot to us but not a max) playing for a real contender in a youngish team (big 3 aside, the team's core is young and the team has some youngsters with upside and is looking to refresh)
I wonder if SA would really consider it, specially when our bench and our guard situation in general was pitiful last season. Wade is on the downturn of his career, but we have a lot of youngsters that the Spurs were already using to spare Manu's body through the season.
Will the Spurs considering moving the contracts it will take?
Fat chance...
Wade gives no effort on D anymore, unfortunately.Quote:

Again people are missing the point. Wade won't take a pay cut from Heat because the Heat have ZERO chance to win a title...he's playing in MIA to sell tickets. If he took less to come to SA it'd be for a legit chance to contend...question is how much? Which is why his camp called.
Wade is the Heat. No way he leaves.
I wouldnt mind him on the Spurs but most Mavs fans in dfw hate d Wade. Ticket or fan did a poll and they hated him more than James or even Kobe.
If Wade were to leave (and money wasn't the driving force), I think he'd be more likely to join Lebron in Cleveland for a year than come to SA (unless the Spurs do throw a considerable amount of money at him).
You guys this is all pure market boost leverage BS, notice this guy uses 2 teams that beat the Heat in the Finals (Spurs, Mavs). He did this with the Bulls in the 2010 free agency. Wade ain't leaving Miami if he does it's to Cleveland.
Not.
Going.
To.
Happen.
good point.Quote:

Most literal astute post in the last 9 months from you and it was a good one. He's a Heat as Duncan is Spur.Quote:

Spurs don't sign guys who have "Camps" (that kind anyway).
They would fall in love overnight; they are desperate for talent in Dallas. Cuban has been outstanding throwing said talent away for little to no return since 2011.Quote:

Would love him at a discount and coming off the bench in the Manu role. But he still thinks he's a top tier player and his ego obviously won't let that scenario happen. Pass, obviously.
There's a 0% chance of Wade joining the Spurs:lol..
LeBatard(who is close friends with Riley and many people in the Heat organization) said Wade is upset that the Heat want him to keep taking paycuts and prioritizing Whiteside over him..he just wants the money and respect from the Heat, using the Spurs for leverage, as every FA seems to do..
He would be a terrible fit with the Spurs' starters, though..Parker/Wade wouldn't make any sense as a duo..

This guy is one of the last guys you have to worry about
competing on the court. And he always turns it up in the PO.
And of course he would be more efficient on the Spurs, as he'd rest more.
As much as I HATE to say it, because of his 34 years of age,
if I'm the Spurs, I'd offer him 4 years 85m if it will pry him away from the
Heat.
If I am the Spurs, my new off-season goals are KD, then Wade.

LOL, I don't have enough fingers and toes to count all the guys (or their agents) who have threatened to be considering the Spurs, in order to get their current teams to cough up more money. If Wade "put out feelers" to the Spurs, there would be no advantage to announcing it.
He could start at pg for us instead porker...
Comes off the bench with Manu, fathead, Boris, and TD.... closing unit starting 5... TP, Wade, Kawhi, LMA, Pau.... I'm okay with this.
asshole, just using spurs and their name tho :depressed
Calling you lazy because, how hard is it to post a link? Everything is bullshit, especially around here unless there's some sort of proof with the news.Quote:

Need to pick up Wade at all costs imo
