Wade is pretty slick with his answers

I particularly enjoyed "this is the last time i'm going out the first round for awhile"

What I got from it was: Bring in good players, and I stay. It's as simple as that, now it's up to the FO/Riley on July 1st to get some guys here.

Wade in response to a question about any pressure on him to make a decision quickly: "Nah, there's no pressure on me at all. The front office has some work to do."

End of that interview, Wade definitely seemed like he was sending Riles a message. Get it done.

Someone posted it already but the standout quote of that conference was "This will be my last first round exit for a while."

I will be happy to see all the heavy weights lose, first Lakers, then Cavs, then Boston, then Orlando
What would ESPN do, if they don't have LeBron and Kobe to suck up on.
I wanna see if Oklahoma gets rid fo the Lakers in the first round.

I have no doubt Wade is staying, he said in the interview a few times "You know where my heart is" and we bring in someone else and Wade is staying and im confident this head office will bring in another gun to play with Wade.
Just the next few months will be so excruciating to wait it out.

For all I get on Beasley, there is no doubt Wade doesn't REALLY like the kid, and has not done the best job of embracing him.

Pretty much. If he leaves, it's because the organization failed him. I couldn't even blame him if that was the case.

I could ramble about my frustrations, voice critiques, defame certain players and decisions; blah, blah, blah. However, having had a chance to calm down, it doesn't matter. We all knew what this season was going to be back in October; another holding pattern. Time for Riley to back up that talk.

Is it July 1 yet?

I think Wade likes Beasley off the court. But he definitely doesn't like playing with him

"This will be my last first round exit for a while."

Translation: Don't call me on July 1st New York and New Jersey :lol:

Now if only the Cavs can finish off those pesky Bulls.

I don't even want LeBron, its weird. I mean part of me does, but part of me would just feel dirty. Its like in baseball, I'd never want to root for a team with A-Rod or Clemens on it.

Just get Bosh, and some other good pieces, and I'll be happy.

I don't like LeBron hype machine, don't even like him much, but I love winning, I would do anything to win. So winning overrides anything, with LeBron equals dynasty.
There is no way I would not want LeBron, winning overrides everything.
