    If he isn't hungry to beat GSW, I don't want him.

    I'd rather have Carmelo and his self confidence that he is still one of the best players in the league. We can use that.

    Wade already has his titles, that hunger isn't there. He's already moving into the next phase oh his life.

    He wants to beat big 6 and refs to prove he can do it. His experiences can help houston.

    If DWade was set on signing back with the Heat, what is the hold up right now?

    Don't really follow the Heat, so not sure what the situation right now on resigning Wade.

    He may retire. That’s I remember hearing when the season was over.

    He's a 3x time NBA champion with HOF career and a gross amount of money, he has nothing else to play for.

    He's a 3x champion, having that experience on your team is never a bad thing. He would be playing with two of his best friends, who haven't won a championship. He would be a great mentor for Melton. He's solid in the post and can still play some defense. He's still got the ability to be a difference maker in spurts. He's injury protection for CP3, Harden or Gordon. For the MLE, I think its a no brainer.

    Wade has a record of bailing out superstars in critical moments and winning. Bring him into the machine.

    I think D-Wade & Lebron have unofficially retired. Lebron had to get that last Laker payday while watching his son play on the West coast. D Wade will play out the string in Miami and watch his kid. They're done with titles tho.

    He’s probably not leaving Miami and for all intents and purposes it sounds like he is done playing basketball. That being said if he does want to come back..I would pay him the veterans minimum and would definitely welcome him here. Loved watching him play back in the day with Shaq. Loved that they beat the Mavs as well in ‘06

    I fail to believe that. It was obviously Thomas who was a locker room cancer

    He has his championship. He's got nothing else to prove. Don't see why he would come here other than banana boat and Treasure strip club ...but he's married
