D Wade on a private jet with Lebron and Dan Gilbert?

[Jedi32]

Just imagine how terrible Durant would feel thinking he made an easy ring chasing decision, only to be defeated by Wade and the Cavs in the Finals.

Wouldn't surprise me while I get why people assume Warriors will just win the next 5 championships none of the players on that team have proven to me they're champions. "But the Warriors won the championship in 2015" Yeah where every team's pg was injured in the playoffs, then while they deserve credit for coming back from 3-1 on the Thunder they blew it 3-1 to the Cavs, and Durant played poorly in game 6 and was a key reason GS came back on the Thunder. To me they all have a lot to prove.

Having said that, guarding them will be a nightmare.

considering everything you just posted makes me wonder why folks are so up in arms about Durant signing there?

wade is going to turn down 20 mill a year for a MLE deal? Wade has his rings, i'm sure he just wants his money

wade has made more than enough money in his career and his wife is rich as well..i think they are good for life..why would he not chase rings when his career is winding down lol?

Because he's won 3 rings already and he can get paid big time. Wouldn't be that smart on his part turning that much down. If its similar then sure

he has a limited window to win more rings, limited options on how to do it, and his current team is clearly going to be worse next year. The choice is what is more important to him at this point of his career, money or legacy.

D Wade's in Europe. His agent might have taken a flight up to Cleveland (probably to use the Cavs to scare Riley into giving Wade the third year). The only way this happens is if we trade Shump and both LBJ and Wade take significantly less than they can currently get. I would call that possibility remote at best.

I enjoy trolling Heat fans as much as the next guy (I do feel badly for some dude named Iggy who the rest of their board is convinced jinxed them) but this is really unlikely to happen.

They were in europe a few days ago. That doesn't mean they are still there.

Not this crap again. Wake me up when Wade actually leaves Miami instead of heresay and media nonsense.

[UNC_MJ_Fan23]

According to Austin Car's kid (idk who that is) Dwade to cavs is a done deal. No source just what I heard

well like I said, Im sure he has made MORE than enough money lol. I think hes just finding a way to leave Miami tbh because he wants to win a ring, or maybe he really is using this as a way to get paid more by Miami, who knows? But I am pretty sure Wade has his own clothing line, apparels, endorsements, etc..to go along with his Gabbs money lol. They dont need anymore money unless if they really are that greedy haha. He tweeted something out today, something like "relationships matter people", so idk some thought that meant he was gonna join with the Cavs? Who knows. Just really curious to see how this will play out. I doubt Wade would help the Cavs beat the Warriors really. I feel like JR smith is much more important than him at this point due to his 3pt shot, and ability to play defense now as well.

So next year is like La Liga basically?

Real Madrid/Cleveland - LeBron/Ronaldo - Kryie/Bale - Benzema/Love (footy fans will get the reference)
Barcelona/Golden State - Curry/Messi - Neymar/Thompson - Durant/Suarez
Atletico Madrid/San Antonio - Pop/Simeone
Rest of La Liga - Rest of NBA

Sounds about right.

Only problem for me is Curry is nowhere near as talented in bball as Messi is in football

if anything, Kyrie is the Messi of the NBA because of his dribbling and his ability to finish lol. Messi has the soccerball on a string, and so does Kyrie. Messis finishes are acrobatic (idk if thats a term used to soccer or not haha) and so is Kyries..

The Heat already offered him the max they have available. If there is any truth to this rumor, it's not to get more money out of the Heat.

well well well...Jason Carr is his son...Jason Carr reported that the Kevin Love deal was done...And it happened? So maybe hes a reliable source? we shall see

Exactly...I am thinking that he really wants to play for rings, and he knows that he has no chance in hell to compete for one by staying with Miami, especially with Chris Bosh blood clot situation can flare up at anytime..

Have to disagree. There is nobody in the NBA, not now, now ever, who has possessed the raw ability to shoot from anywhere on the court on top of having elite ball handling skills to compliment the lethal range.

Anybody who has the played the game of basketball know that the hardest shot is off the dribble, and nobody does it better than Curry.

Not even close.

[NBAfan3024]

Surely Miami can offer more than 20 million per?

Yeah but Messi has been likely the best player in the entire world for years, Curry still isn't the best in the world at his sport

That's really all I care about lol. Plus.... it was a joke anyhow.

Austin CArrs son reported that the Kevin Love deal was official the last time. Now he just reported that the D wade deal is done lol. So we will see what happens in the next couple days

[puppa bear]

I can see D Wade join them via sign-n-trade. They part with unwanted contract such as Kevin Love. Miami has no choice, they can either take in or leave in. If Miami refuses, he's to wait the Cavs unloading the scrub. And Lebron has to sacrifice his contract to get him. And D Wade knows Miami has no future. He should bite on it and wait.

Sure thing. Love will be great next to Whiteside, and when Bosh's contract comes off the books we'll still have space for a full max to go with a Dragic/Winslow/Love/Whiteside core.

Is it possible for another team with cap space s&t to the Cavs?

Like could some random team (Bucks/76'ers/anybody with enough space) sign and trade Wade for Shumpert and Frye?

Nope, only the team that has his bird rights can S&T him. So you are dealing with Miami. Absolutely no interest in Shumpert or Frye, let alone both. Love would be the only S&T that would interest us.

Cavs can have Bosh as well if they want. Love/TPE (AndyV) for Bosh/Wade ($9.638m)brings the crew back together & gives them a backcourt partner for TT.

It's from his kid's Facebook page so take it for what it's worth.

their offer is something Wade wants, big money. Unless something changed his mind

[puppa bear]

Without moving anyone else it's actually just below $20m.
