D-Wade and Pat Riley Need to Hug Out

The title is in honor of Entourage premiering tonight and if you arent watching that tonight, I would compare you to a ginger: No soul. But in all honesty, the Miami Heat know realize that their superstar is not happy and they are doing nothing about it.


I have been a big fan of Dwayne Wade since the Marquette days although I feel I am coming at this at the right angle because I recognize whats going on. Wade made a comment earlier this week explaining that the team needs to get back to championship caliber level then he will stay in Miami. After that happens, rumors started to swirl that the team had shown interest in Allen Iverson which will not make that much of a difference for Miami. This is basically the same scenario that happened in Milwaukee last week. Brewer outfielder Ryan Braun and Wade both made comments where they spoke the truth leading to management getting pissed off he even went there. I mean Wade plays with a bunch of scrubs and a couple of guys who have a legitimate shot at becoming better players although I would put them nowhere near contending for a championship.

Pat Riley whose ego is the size of the state of Florida made a comment " ''There can't be any major franchise changes made without his commitment,'' Riley said of Wade. ``I'm going to do the best sales job I can. What we do going forward is going to be predicated on that.'' Wade came back with something saying why not give 2010 a chance which to me makes sense, he doesnt want to commit to a team that may need to rebuild. Granted, Riley wants to start with Wade and hope everything falls into place after that.

Also now there have been texts made to Wade asking for an extension already putting the ball in his court which now makes Dwayne look like the asshole if he doesnt sign the extension with the Heat. The writing will be on the wall and if they dont sign that could mean they could swing a deal for Wade come February if they are convinced he will not resign. It has became very interesting in South Beach.
