I do. He has one more year, then a player option. Keep him for one more year, and then when Lebron opts out tell Wade to opt out and resign for less, if not you take measures.
There are literally no measures that can be taken when you have a then-going-on-33 year old player under a max deal for 2 seasons. Who is going to take that contract? What will happen is that Wade will likely stay on his deal, Bosh and LeBron opt out and re-up at a lower rate. Wade is balanced out by guys like Miller and UD coming off the books.
Me or does David West look like someone cut gas in closed quarters around him every time he doesnt get the call lol
All 3 players have the same contract. They all have 1 more year and a 2nd player option year. All 3 will most likely opt out, whether to leave for other teams, or to make better contracts for them or the team. The team has the amnesty clause, that is their measure for now. However as i said, i would not amnesty Wade. He is still a good player. I would hope if they don't get traded, all 3 will opt out and again take less money to allow the team to get players around them. I would hope Wade specially takes the least money of the 3.
I just realized how ridiculous it is that Lebron could probably hold a ball in his teeth and dunk on an NBA rim with his face.
Get ready for everyone to scream how the refs and Stern helped the Heat win the game and series. You know it's coming.
Nah Nah, Nah Nah Naaah Nah, Hey Hey Hey, Gooooood bye! Nice to know ya, Mr. George. ...now, for Mr. Herpaderpt's 6th foul.
Best part of Heat winning..... goodbye Kerr and Reggie Miller. I could say i'd miss you, but that would be lying!
Yes, all three have the same contract structure—not the same contract itself. They also have different situations due to age and team role. You're not seeing that. Wade will not be amnestied ever. If the Heat hasn't amnestied Miller by now, they're not going to use it on Wade. Wade has no incentive to take even less than he currently is on his contract.
The contract money difference is very minimal in comparison. What are you saying i am not seeing? That Wade will not opt out because his contract is better than his performance? I say you're wrong. Wade will opt out because each and every one of these players have shown they value team over more money. They will opt out and they will take less. I was not the one that suggested amnestying Wade. Someone else did, and i said they shouldn't and they wouldn't. You're wrong saying Wade has no incentive to take less money too. He has plenty of incentive. Like: Keeping Lebron. Keeping a team capable of winning. Helping a team that by all accounts is not a team but a family. He can get his money elsewhere. The move from shoe company IMO is a preemptive measure to balance out the loss of money from future contract.
That's a tough one. For one, i don't have to listen to Barkley's moronic insights and predictions. On the other, now i have to listen to Wilbon and Simmons.
Granted, but at least Inside the NBA is ENTERTAINING. I am praying to every deity that Disney does not bid again for the NBA in 2016.
Wow. 3 straight years back to the finals... can't believe this is the same team I have loved all my life. Just totally spoiled by how awesome this franchise is you know? Hope we bring it on Thursday!
Fun fact of the night: No one has yet informed Norris Cole that he may come back to the court... edit: Dang it, someone told him.
Love Juwan and Zo next to eachother... two legends. Also, LOL @ Birdman not being able to wear the ECF Hat because of the mohawk.
