He seems to be at a decline and with his age and next yrs new tax penalties, would miami be disloyal if they trade him?

Makes no sense to trade him. He's a free agent next year, just resign him for cheap and see who else you can get along with him.

Yes? Wade has done a ton for their franchise, including convincing Lebron and Bosh to come to Miami. They wouldn't do that to him.

Hakeem ended up in Toronto, Patrick Ewing played in Orlando. There is no loyalty in the NBA, it's a business.

People really dont know what regular season means.... At the time of playoffs you will understand why he is untradeable.... Dont look at his stats because Lebron handles the ball

Wade isn't going to take a mle deal to stay, a 3 yr 45 million would probably still b offered from some team, as a mavs fan I'd give mayo and Kaman for wade

Trading a very very old player away from a rebuilding team is a little different than trading away an early-30s player from a championship team

He's only 30 years old, I don't know why he looks so bad. I'm pretty sure he's got something left in the tank, somebody is definitely going to throw a lot of money at him when he hits free agency.

Lebron looked also bad in 2011 but what happened in 2012..... the point is : Wade is still IMHO a top 5 player and you dont trade them.... plain and simple

LeBron looked bad in the finals because he was being guarded by excellentdefenders, he was still athletic and explosive his shot was just off which he's never been a great shooter, wade now lacks explosiveness and he'll be 31 hitting fa

Heat won't, nor should they trade Wade.

However, calling him a top 5 player at this point in his career is rather laughable. There is arguably 2 better players on his team alone.

No one can guard Lebron, even excellent defenders.... my point : Wade had a bad playoff series , but who cares?With bad I mean bad for his standarts (which means still top 10)!

If he plays bad again the you are right, but until then you have to wait, because its still regular season!

And its not ridiculous to call Wade a top 5 player... Because after Lebron and Howard, Wade Kobe Durant Dirk and I think Anthony also, are arguable.....

If he plays bad again at 31 his trade value plummets

Quit being a homer man.

Lebron
Bosh
Kobe
Howard
Rondo
Durant
Duncan

Are all clearly better than Wade. This doesn't counter injured players like Rose and Love who are both better than Wade at this point in their careers also.

Wade has been vastly over-hyped, which I don't understand because Bosh has been vastly underhyped.

Yes, Wade is a special player for them. Of course in professional sports, nobody is untouchable forever, but i can't imagine the fanbase accepting a decision like that.
