A: Let's cut to the chase again with this. The only reason Dwyane Wade left was money, and what he perceived to be a lack of respect with the Heat's contract offer in July. It had nothing to do with the Bulls' playoff prospects or leading Chicago's younger players. And while his efforts in the Chicago community absolutely are admirable and ongoing, that also was secondary to Pat Riley's lack of participation in the process when it came to both entering the negotiations and acquiescing to an offer that Wade deemed commensurate with his contributions to the franchise. For all the quotes over the weekend indicating Dwyane's frustration with the Bulls' front office, there also were frustrations with the Heat's front office. In fact, when you consider it, Dwyane would have been in an awkward position had he stayed and the Heat then moved forward with their approach with Chris Bosh, one of Dwyane's closest friends. When a player ages, and his family grows, sometimes it's about the matters beyond basketball. If Chicago is truly the destination of Dwyane's desires, then I believe he still will play out the final, 2017-18 season on his Chicago contract, that money highly unlikely to be offered from a contender -- including the Heat.
