Honestly, Miami should say **** it and just match Tyler Johnson's offer. Let Wade walk.

Spacing on a Rondo-Wade-Butler-Gibson-Lopez might be worse than what the Bucks had. Also Rondo and Wade on the same team would be... something.

According to Miami beat writer, they're looking to dump McBob to open more capspace for Wade. And execs around the nba believe they need to attach a pick or Winslow to move him!

imagine getting winslow as a cheap Butler on this team!

They cant take back salary, idk if they can waive jerebko, read that he has to be guaranteed to be traded. We have capspace, just give us both players

Maybe Wade can dislocate his elbow again and Rondo will suddenly be an incredible shooter.

Worked in Rookie of the Year.

Is he going to be worth $6,021,175 against our cap next year when we're trying to bring in stars?

I bet he opts out.

If he brings in Winslow, given how ainge views him, I believe so.

Let's see how Riley gets out of this bind. The Heat currently have 5 guaranteed players including Bosh whose health status is still a question mark.

London2Boston · Post #1112 » by **London2Boston** » Thu Jul 7, 2016 12:51 am

Man. The Heat are going to suck real bad if D Wade leaves. We really don't need that.

Fair enough. That's a different scenario than just getting McRoberts. Personally, I will be surprised if Riley trades Winslow just to move McRoberts. I don't see how hurting your roster to keep Wade for two more years does anything for their chances of winning a title any time soon.

He will re-sign with the Heat... it's all just posturing IMO.

CeltsfanSinceBirth · Post #1115 » by **CeltsfanSinceBirth** » Thu Jul 7, 2016 12:56 am

Heat aren't trading Winslow or a pick just to re-up Wade. This is Pat the Rat making a villain out of Wade.

BigTrade92 · Post #1116 » by **BigTrade92** » Thu Jul 7, 2016 1:02 am

LOL Riley would rather ship Winslow to the Sixers for free then send him here for whatever we're offering.

Pat the Rat is never helping the Celtics and the only way he'll trade with us is if it's mutually beneficial.

Dumping Winslow for salary room isn't.

I agree, but what the hell are they thinking in Chicago? Rondo, Wade, and Butler, three ball dominant guards who can't shoot? This is a recipe for disaster. By all means carry on Chicago.

No, we don't want that. We want Wade to stay in Miami. If he leaves, Heat likely tank (bad for Nets pick). We need both Bulls and Heat to stay competitive and yet irrelevant.

Aside: When's the last time three star FAs walked and left the team that drafted them in one offseason?

Wes-J · Post #1119 » by **Wes-J** » Thu Jul 7, 2016 1:12 am

If Utah was in the east, they would be in the conference finals verse the Cavs.

Great young team.

Miami could be better without Wade, it will give Dragic more room to operate. If Bosh comes back, big IF, I don't think Miami would be that worse off.
