I hate to say it, but Wade's better days are behind him already.

Where'd you get surgery from?

The report is stating treatment, not an operation.

Dwyane Wade's season is over.

Heat coach Pat Riley said at Monday's shootaround that the team has decided not to continue to walk on eggshells when it comes to the guard's tender left knee.

Instead, Riley said Wade would undergo a specialized treatment on the knee that would keep him off the court for 30 days.

Per Wiretap

The Miami HEAT announced Monday that guard Dwyane Wade will undergo OssaTron treatment (Shock wave therapy) on his left knee and is expected to miss the remainder of the 2007-08 season.

The procedure which is non-surgical and will take approximately 30 minutes will be performed later this week.

Wade is probably done for the season and miami is definitely done. Doesn't make a lot of sense to have him come back for the last few gaes of the regular season. Let the tanking begin.

This is actually a good thing for Miami... Hopefully they get first draft pick... and Draft someone who will help them out next year... Wade will get back, he just needed this season off IMO.

Would you like some TANK?

I bet Riley has seen who he wants in the first and has figured lets just tank(well, more than they already were).... Wade is now prolly doing something he would have done in the offseason early so he can get better early...I think he will be fine and with basically having about a season or so off he will be pretty rejuvinated for the next few season...Next will be Marion, doing some sort of rehab...

nah Marion will play..this is not a tank move, we are already bad enough and tanking with him...its because of injuries.

He wouldn't miss the season if you were in the playoff chance. Whatever you call it, Miami certainly isn't trying to win. Not that it matters, they should tank being out of the playoffs.

I hope we dont lose 70 games, its likely..but we should be able to pull out a couple wins though, hopefully.

It was expected. They are going after the first pick hard...

last year paul pierce and the celtics, now wade and the heat, i hope they don't get one of the highest picks, wolves and sonics deserve that more because they are rebuilding, also the knicks need some love.

Is Marion bolting this summer or will he resign? Does he have to opt out first or can he look at other offers and then decide to stay? I know he has a player option for 17 mill next season. If he doesnt opt out he would be a free agent at the age of 31 how many teams would be willing to give a big long contract to a 31 year old, would it be less then the amount that would give one to a 30 year old? If he does opt out its gonna have to be a sign and trade unless the Sixers are the ones that sign him instead of AI.

the heat are gonna rewrite the book on tanking... i never heard of a head coach leaving the team to go and scout college kids... what a joke
