Dwyane Wade averaged 24 points per game last season. While he may not be the "player he once was" he is still a damn good player and better than most guards in the league. Dude can still ball.

If by 24 you mean 19.

eFG%...
2013-14 55.1%
2014-15 48.3%
2015-16 45.9%

Doesn't shoot treys anymore...

2FG%...
2013-14 55.7%
2014-15 48.9%
2015-16 46.8%

All distances down... rough.
Thanks for ruining summer, Canada.

No he didn't.

He did if you only count the conference semifinals against Toronto. Even shot threes in that series (10/20 beyond the arc).

Of course, calling seven games a "season" only works if you're in the NFL and missed half the year.

Wade's maturity alone would help the young Bucks players and he still has enough in the tank to give the team an option as a scorer and a good chance at the playoffs next year.

With that said, I hope he stays in Miami to finish his career and he does deserve a better contract if the original $10 million offer is correct.

Has Wade finished his degree yet?  Is that even any consideration whatsoever?

No and no.

latest offer from Miami is 2 years for $40 million.  With Wade's option for the second year.

Will be interesting to see how bad Nuggets want him. They have 28 million of cap room.

Why?  They have treated the face of the franchise, the guy who had truly earned the statue out front, like absolute crap especially over the last couple of years.  For many years DWade has sacrificed personally for that organization.  I too think it'll be a shame if he feels compelled to leave but wouldn't blame him one bit.

I still think it's a very long shot that he signs on with the Bucks.  But MKE is the one visiting arena where he has been loudly cheered since the moment he stepped into the league.  I'm not commenting on the merits of signing him as I'm unable to balance the value he brings (leadership, etc. vs. diminishing skills) but I don't put it past him to want to reconnect more closely with a community he has great fondness towards.

Heard a sports talk rumor last night that Wade might be talking to Cleveland in the next few days.  Nothing but rumor at this point.

Frankly, I'm surprised that more professional athletes aren't bending over backwards to play in Seattle or Denver.

Most of the time athletes go where the money dictates.  They have limited time in which to earn it and they can't live wherever they want in the off-season and after they retire.

Apparently Wade turned down Miami's offer.  People are guessing Cleveland.

Understood, but how many pros have been busted by the cops for marijuana possession over the past few years and subsequently been suspended by their league compared to those who were simply suspended as a result of failing a p-test for marijuana (which are rather difficult to fail unless you've got the bong in hand while you're draining)?  My guess: exponentially more of the former than the latter.  In other words, if you're not going to get busted by the law in Denver or Seattle, you can smoke up at will 280-320 days a year (instead of just during a ~120-day off-season) without a realistic chance of being suspended.

Milwaukee meeting cancelled. Reason cited is inability to have immediate cap space available.

No.  He wants $25M+ now.  Cancelled his meeting with the Bucks because they can't get over $17M/year...but people say he's meeting with the Cav's, who can offer him a whopping 3.9M/season?  Hmm...

Which teams could legitimately offer him 25 mil a year? The Bulls? Sacramento? Doubt he would want to go to wither of those places.

Now that the Bulls have signed Rondo I believe that they have about $10 million of cap room left.

And you're right, the Bulls would make no sense for him.
