Dwyane Wade Safari

Do Not Sell My Personal Information

I mean it all depends imo. I don't know Wade, never will, but it's an interesting scenario, and they are the type of team that will over pay for him.

They have 25ish million to play with in cap space. If Wade is looking big money, they might not be a bad partner from an on court perspective either. They're a team of role players, some high caliber role players (Lowry, Demar), and some decent ones (JV, Williams).

A team of Lowry, Wade, Derozan, West, JV isn't that bad.

With the news LMA is taking a meeting with Toronto (about a 1% shot if that), maybe they could sell Wade and LMA on playing together? In theory they could clear the cap (with our help;) ) to both pay Wade, and pay LMA.

I always look for the Cavs angle.

I was kidding, I mean yeah, if Toronto will pay him. I could see it, but do they even have enough to offer the full max?

I think they need to shed some salary still.

Wade will go anywhere IMO, to a team that will pay him the full max, and isn't at least horrific.

He's not going to play for the Hornets, or Sixers, but I wouldn't rule out the Raptors.
 
No way Miami doesn't break. You don't disrespect Wade like that after everything hes done. 16 mil over the next 3 years isn't even crazy imo. Youre giving Bosh 20 mil, so wtf

According to that fantastic sportrac site that someone posted, they have 24.65 million in cap space, if they renounce their players. They would be thin, but if Wade and West went there, it would certainly be an upgraded roster. They might even be able to attract some ring chasers.

They aren't a dumpster fire like some of the other options, and they can create room for a second big FA if needed. The only real problem with Toronto is MLSE ownd them. The tax isn't an option.
 
If Wade doesn't retire, I'll do it for him. Been wanting to for years.

    Why bother? We still wouldn't have his bird rights, and we still couldn't go over the cap to sign him.

    Only reason we can with LeBron is because there's a cap hold in place already.

    you may want to check another part of the board looks like the chances may not be over......

He seems to think an admin in another thread hinted that by saying "Riley was never going to trade Wade here, people" Wade would/might sign here for the tax payer MLE.

I highly doubt it and I don't think that's what the admin meant.

Ignore the first part of the text was on my phone, but we did a nugget from one of our insiders.

What I want to know is, what is the max the Cavs could extend Wade if he were to sign at least 1 year for the tax player MLE? I have a feeling something like that would be frowned upon by the players' association.....

He basically said nothing has changed about Wade being possible if you read into it.

See maybe I read it wrong, but I felt like he was saying that the possibility is slim to none
 
Guys.. c'mon....

It's dead...
