The Bucks play the Heat Wednesday at the BC, so I think there's a good chance of DWade and company being in attendence. I tweeted at him, but no response of course. But usually he makes it to one game a year when he can. Hope to see him there!
I'm pretty sure his last game he was at was when his number was retired against Providence.
I'd be shocked to see him there.
He did tweet about our win over Villanova Saturday.
If he's rockin' his IU shorts, he can head down to Bloomington instead.

There's a joke that never gets old.... :P
On another note, now that Carlos Arroyo isn't with the Heat, who are our boys going to have to get in a scuffle with during the late night scrimmage at the Al?

Eddie Curry.
How great would it be to see DWade and LeBron court side in MU gear? Money could not get you better publicity.
Will that help recruiting?

Only if William Wesley is there with them eating an ice cream cone.

Nah, he'll be too busy eating Cheeto's in the hotel to play some ball at the Al.

Hand LeBron an application. Stay in school, kids.
I asked muathletics twitter account...Their response: 'Can neither confirm nor deny... would be cool though.'
I read that as "we honestly have no clue"
doubt it.
TWITTER TRAAAAAAAAAACKKKKKKER!

Instead I would like to see him tweet about Buzz a few times. He has tweeted about TC several times, especially after the Kentucky win. We could use a little Buzz love from his tweet.

Ummm.... I'm not a twitter expert but doesn't that just mean that DJO invited Wade to the game and let him know it was at 7?
Its like me tweeting "Pickup game at the y at 8 @dwade"
That made me chuckle...
DWade should take LeBron for some "Real Chile".....
Now what would we "cultural" experience.....
Probably not....a nite off in Milwaukee.....Fly down to Chi-town for the evening....
Dwade and LeBron in the house.

Not getting their money's worth right now.
"The Gold? Nah, that ain't right. The Gold?"
Its Wade, Lebron, Robert Jackson, and "Lebron's Handler/Driver"
Robert Jackson is on the heat?

From my viewing angle in my second level seats they were the only people I saw walk in. But they just left to go to happy hour.

poor rob kept looking so pissed after that vander throw down. just awkward timing with the espn camera, but it was the only shot you saw of him all night.
Wade went all "big-time" on the crowd.
A few minutes after he arrived, they put him and LeBron up on the Jumbotron .. Wade /barely/ raised his finger to acknowledge the cheering fans, many of whom were giving him a standing ovation.
How hard is it to, you know, take 2 seconds and give an actual wave and a smile?
LeBron acknowledged the crowd more than Wade did.
In the row behind Wade and LeBron was Bosh and I believe Norris Cole, although I couldn't tell.
Or he didn't want to be the center of attention, so he tried to minimize it.

Yeah, can't stand that Wade guy. Total punk.
It's awesome that he made the trip with LeBron. Would have been more awesome if we could have filled the place a little more.
Um....the guy is "big-time" and he brought the most recognizable athlete on the planet at this point to an MU game...which will be shown over and over again on ESPN as they highlight Blue's dunk and Lebron and Wade's reaction. Isn't this the same "big-time" guy that showed up at Midnight Madness this year?

This.
Here is a pic I snagged.
I don't get Hilltopper's pissy attitude. Wade did NOT have to come tonight, he did NOT have to bring the biggest name in the planet with him, he did NOT have to bring half of the Heat with him, he did NOT have to stop and talk to some older people and give hugs in the tunnel ( I didn't know who they were)
Bottom line is he is the most celebrated player in MU history, and instead of being "big time" and not coming at all, he showed up and brought his posse.
Mad Respect Sir Wade, You continue to be my favorite MU player in History

How about Wade's over-laughing when Mrs. JumpAround was on the Jumbotron requesting he call her? Was he "big-timing" then too?
To put it in perspective, the last time I remember seeing those two together to watch a sporting event was the college football national title game. Yes, it is a big deal.
i didn't think he went "big time." obviously he is big time, but when labron bumped him to show he was on the jumbotron he smiled and waved. he had a nice laugh when jump-arounds wife hit on him on the jumbotron as well. the fact that he, and half his team, showed up to watch mu play against seaton hall was pretty cool.
i thought the crowd was pretty decent as well...much better than the USF game last tuesday...
As soon as I posted that, I knew people would rush to Wade's defense.
Ok, ok, you're right guys. What was I thinking.

I agree with you. I can tell you that my 13 year old nephew nearly shat himself when they walked in. Really cool of Wade and Lebron, for that matter. It speaks well for them as a team that they'd support Wade like that.
next time tell wade not to bring his boyfriend. lebron better back up before he gets jacked up

Why was Rob pissed?
prolly cause dwade and lebron stole his courtside seats...
someone please explain this Jumping Man Wife exchange with Wade on the JumboTron???????
Pointing to her #3 T-shirt and mouthing "Call me!"
DWade brought Tiger Woods
