I agree but why wouldn't Bosh have announced he was doing the same with Wade and Haslem they all share the same agent.

What about it? I have no problems with players chasing money at all, but it's silly to say all he wants to do is win while taking that much. If wade didn't care for competing and keeping James, he would take his 22 easily and eat like a fat cat.

tee, hee.

That's 5 talking.

Maybe Wade's desperate to keep him. He doeesn't have any more 2010 seasons left.

I know everyone feels like throwing dirt on Wade, but is he really done?

I mean he still averaged about 18 ppg on 50% shooting in the playoffs. In fact, all the big three performed quite well on the whole. If nothing else, this core is the formula to getting into the finals from the east -- what is that worth to an owner?

So would Dallas fan cheer Wade coming?

[Robz4000]

If Bosh has opted out as well, I think it's safe to say they'll all be resigning with the Heat for less (sans Lebron). Not sure what they'll be able to reload with in that case however; Napier doesn't move the needle.

Bosh is gonna it all up for Miami.

He missed 28 games for rest. It seems like he's breaking down.

[ChumpDumper]

I can't see Bosh and Wade's signing anywhere else for more money, but if they take less that is a load of money to leave on the table.

Offensively he was solid to great up until the Finals, but his defense has fallen off a cliff. Doesn't help his style of play clashes with the modern NBA. He could still be a great contributor as a third option/6th man but I'm not sure he can have a positive impact on the floor with Lebron again.

wade did not play 22 games in regular season

[D-Wade]

Without James he's light 2

And if James showed up even just a little in 2011, Wade would have 2FMVPs and the Heat would have wrapped up their 3 peat last year.

[ducks]

I think heat should bring wade off the bench help bench production and use bosh and james more
forget iso for wade

Gino looked done last year and look now.

In the moment, I was saying Wade should hang it all up but who knows. He deserves the benefit of the doubt for another year.

[ChumpDumper]

wade did not play 22 games in regular season

Neither did Manu in 12-13.

I agree he's not a $20 million man, and he'll need a Danny/Marco supporting cast to preserve his effectiveness -- but it doesn't seem impossible. Again, the Heat is on Riley to actually do something.

[RsxPiimp]

Riley would be ing stupid to offer Bosh more than $12 mil/yr, and thats being generous.

[Mal]

Correct me if wrong, but Miami cant be in tax range next year, cause there are heavy penalties for being in tax for too long.

[ducks]

manu is not a starter wade is
wade needs to be off the bench and embrace being a 6 man and try to win that award

owner worth 6.5 BILLION

I doubt it with Bibby, Joel Anthony, and Juwan Howard playing important minutes of that Finals. And that Dallas team was fierce. Not sure why no Miami fan can seem to give them credit.
