A: I think one of the more underplayed stories during All-Star Weekend was how both Dwyane and Chris Bosh spoke of heading into the twilight of their careers. It is a far different approach than how the Heat have been casting their two leading men. And it certainly creates pause as to whether the franchise is in lockstep, that a changing of the guard could be at hand (with Bosh's health scare certainly heightening such possibilities). The way the Heat hada been operating, it's as if it was Wade-Bosh or Bust. And yet Wade and Bosh seemed, even before this Bosh scare, to be moving into the next step of their careers, seemingly in wind-down mode. So your question about Wade and his salary certainly is logical, considering he, himself, no longer is stressing the role of a leading man. Of course semantics and negotiations tends to be two different animals. The question for the Heat could become: What is the going rate for a talented contributor and mentor?
