No, he mixed metaphors. He's like Dirk after winning the championship. "I feel like I'm on top of the iceberg!"

Still think they try and get ray after getting jones and miller?


Wouldn't be shocked

Sam Smith was on Carmen and Jurko saying the Cavs and Bulls are trying to land him. This was before the James Jones news however.

That's what he said. I thought our roster was set.

This offseason has been fun. That's about the third name mentioned that I didn't even realize that he's still playing

In comparison to what he would have made if he didn't opt out of his contract

Ohh he signed the two year contract. I thought it was 4/60

You think he retires in 2 years?

Probably depends on how much he has left in the tank and what Miami's current situation looks like.

Going to be hard to retire right around the time the new TV deal will likely be complete considering the jump in salary cap.

The guy I listen to on the radio in Memphis joked that because of Sterling's racist comments forcing the sale of the Clippers for 2 Billion dollars just made a ton of black guys richer.

I think Wade has a resurgence. It may just be my reaction because of all these people on here writing him off.

As much as injuries have held him back, I think his style of play hasn't helped. He's gonna have to reapproach the way he plays. Start shooting more 3's, don't attack the basket so hard, etc.

He has tendinitis in his knees I think is what I've heard so his knees will continuously degenerate until he retires. He's got a pretty good mid range game now but it will be interesting how he does playing every night. I think he can still average 20 a game but who knows

I agree. But think removing LeBron and putting D Wade back into his leadership role as the creator and driver, will actually help. He can pick his spots better, decide more on his terms when to drive the lane or bang or spot up. I think he'll be a lot more relaxed and confident, and will be able to adjust his game efficiently to his shape now. Those adjustments must be made, as all players of similar skill set do when they age. It's a lot easier to figure out and make those adjustments when you've got the ball every play and you're running the show. He couldn't do that with LeBron.


Basically I don't think Wade knows what he's good at and shitty at anymore, and he didn't have an opportunity to figure it out. Maybe he will this year.
