He'd probably still be playing. A perfect modern big.

If he had prioritized himself after stinking up the 2014 finals we would have never been in that position, but he got played like a fiddle by his boy Cabron. Wade opted out of a contract that would have paid him 42 million over the next 2 years. He ended up signing a 1+1 for an avg of 15 mil, opted out the next year and got another 20.

"Ok so hijacking this comment. It appears Jimmy told Spo "Don't threaten me like I'm a bitch." and Spo said "You think I'm gonna **** fight you?" while Haslem was saying "Show them! Show them! (talking about the Warriors) We're not you're mother **** enemy. We not your enemy!" then Jimmy stood up and looked like he starred Haslem down (maybe said "**** you" at this point?) and he was just checking him at that point"

If this is true, then JB is a b*tch. Spo may have called him out for being passive this past few games.

Trade his *ss somewhere if continues to be cancer. Even a prime LeBron and Dwade didn't go down to this level with Spo. Shooting the ball lethargically ain't gonna help either.

LeBron has said some things to Spo fam lmfao

Those practices got out of control sometimes.

Like 4-5 years later that Riley still regrets to this day?

Wade made us relevant regardless of who was in what circle, let’s just be real.


Wade's a champion but LeBron made him disloyal to Riley and broke the harmony. Wade became a different guy late in his career. He sacrificed and won more titles but his love affair with lebrons agenda left a scorched Earth behind.


The whole thing about Wade had nothing to do with Bron. Wade wanted to get paid that 3rd year for the sacrifices. Heat really didn't want to do it. It's all family and loyalty till money becomes an issue. But the FO had a responsibility to make best decision for the team long term. And I Wade has a right to ask for what he thinks he's owed. No one was wrong there. They just had different interests that couldn't be bridged.


what sacrifices??? wade left money on the table ONE time. ONCE. to form the Big 3 to win titles.

every other contract wade got from the heat was max money. if wade didn't want lebron and wanted max money, he woulda got that too.

No. He only really got max once. That was the deal after his rookie contract. He left a bit when the big 3 formed. He also left money when he reupped after Bron left to give Heat flexibility to sign other players.

The Jimmy contract will be chickens coming home to roost. They're gonna be paying a worse player than Wade 50 million at age 37. I have nothing more to add on that issue.

Jimmy's play and salary is not an issue. He was playing MVP ball until his series of injuries.

This is a team chemistry issue currently. Jimmy needs to get right and have himself a great postseason.

Long story short Wade and LeBron made us relevant and we’re the major factor in turning this franchise into a dynasty. Give him whatever money he wants.

Didn't watch the game. Woke up this morning and saw the score. Rolled my eyes. Heard later on the radio about the incident. Was actually glad to hear it. This team needs to be woken the F up

AirP. wrote:Windhaurst also talks about the situation. He believes Spoelstra tried to use the situation to fire up the team, I guess that's what the clipboard being thrown down was. Later he notes this is the toughest the Eastern Conference he's seen in 20 years.

Stephan A. says Miami handled it correctly when he contacted them last night, they didn't give any details but didn't dodge the questions. He also says Miami is good enough to get to the finals or bounced in the 1st round which is exactly right.



Yeah if everything goes perfect with health and matchups we can make the finals, if we get a bad matchup we can be out the first round. For us to win everyone of our big three needs to be playing great and even then that’s not enough some games when Herro is out.

Give who what money? Lol

Wade could have won at least one title with Bosh and no LeBron, especially with LeBrons choking attributes.

The Celtics were the main obstacle.

Give Wade whatever money he asked for lol, we wouldn’t have missed out on anything if we did. We signed bums like JJ TJ Dion Whiteside KO to huge contracts

I don't know. He was missing a lot of games but he got a good deal in Chicago. They outbid Miami. Wade was copying LeBron and going home.

Wade should be able to ask for full ownership of Carnival Cruises and get it.
