Would you happen to have a link for this rumor? Also, any speculation as to who would be moved, and for what?

Wonder if it'd be Wade or Lebron.

If we win nobody is going anywhere, so there isn't much sense speculating about it at this point in time. If we lose we'll have enough time to overanalyze our options.
All im gonna say is Wade and Bron are here to stay no matter what.

The only person getting moved is Spo.

This makes no sense (that they would get rid of Wade). LeBron came to play with Wade and basically team up with Bosh.
He'd want to leave if we're basically going to become the Miami Cavs.
I can't see Riley getting rid of the very man he drafted.
And don't give me that "he's aging" garbage. Riley goes for vets, gave an aging Miller a contract nobody wants and it's LONG, and we have OLD ASS JUWAN HOWARD ON THIS TEAM CMON MAN LOL.
Bosh would be gone and I could see Miller too. Not Wade. That is an overreaction to losing this season. This is Wade county, I just can't imagine the outrage lol.
LeBron would be stuck in one awkward situation lol.
I'd be pissed as **** though if Riley removes Wade BEFORE SPO.

Uh yeah trading away Wade would be like trading away Marino IMO. You don't do that.

he talked about it on first take today. specifically said "make no mistake, bosh and wade know this". he made it sound like bosh was a given and wade was also a possibility.
i don't think he is tied to wade like he was to magic and supposedly he hasn't been thrilled with some of the choices wade has made since lebron came to town. while i agree him being moved is unlikely, the whole "wade county" argument has little merit. what do you think is more important to riley....winning or keeping wade here? not saying they are exclusive right now, but i'm willing to bet riley would choose the former. and it's not like players greater than him haven't been traded before.
i don't see the comparison between wade and miller/howard. wade is a core centerpiece, those guys are role players.
i agree spo should be replaced before a wade deal.

Load of BS.
Like Riley would really mess with Bosh and Wade's psyche mid-season by telling them they're gone if the team doesn't win this year. Nothing leaks from the Heat's offices, I'm not about to believe something like this would.
Oh and if this franchise ever trades Wade I'll never forgive them. The man has to retire in a Heat jersey.

Riley would be a **** boss if he has the guts to trade Wade out of town cuz that would be tough as hell. Imagine the Wade fanboys' reaction, lmao.

We play the Knicks in the 1st round.
This would be a huge distraction right? And it is.
SAS is a Knicks fan.... interesting...
oh shiz, this is against the Heat.... things adding up? Conspiracy theory but he is still apart of the media and his own agenda.
Ugh I will just copy and paste what I said in the other thread.
I cannot see Riley backstabbing the guy he drafted. Riley is not like that. I think he had that one trade where he traded Glen Rice for Zo (who turned out to be one of the best Heat players of all time), but that's different to me because he didn't draft Rice.
LeBron would have the awkward situation of taking MIami alone then. He came here to play with Wade. If Wade gets shipped out, I really doubt LeBron would want to stay here any longer or something. He left Cleveland so he wouldn't have to do anything alone. Him and Wade make a great 4th quarter duo. But if they both leave... I mean really? Who can Wade be replaced with?
Bosh isn't the big man Riley thought. Riley is a guy who has been around Abdul-Jabbar, Ewing, Zo, and Shaq for a bit, and knows their dominance. He knows "no rebounds, no rings". Bosh is definitely gone somehow if they want to shake things up. Unless Bosh turns into a mini Zo in the playoffs or something. There's a reason why the line up Riley envisioned has all tall guys, and Bosh AT THE CENTER (Miller, UD, Haslem, Wade, LeBron). Then it became apparent, holy **** we need a Center, especially when UD went down last year.
People say how Wade is aging, so what? Riley goes after vets all the friggin time. Might as well keep Wade til he's Juwan's age, RIGHT? HE IS THE DAMN ROSTER!! JUWAN HOWARD!! LOL!!!

This exact stupidity from the media is the reason i never wanted that Knicks series for us in the first place.

What?
Someone has to be a fanboy to be crushed if this franchise trades Wade? I can't imagine an actual Heat fan writing that post you just did.

And yea Riley would tell two players they're being traded if they don't win it all this season, right before the playoffs started.
How does one even come up with this stuff

Easiest way to avoid this whole scenario? Win the title.
