Did Pat Riley want Dwyane Wade to leave the Miami Heat? Probably not. We think. Okay, shit, we’re not really sure after finding out this from the Miami Herald‘s Ethan J. Skolnick: [tweet https://twitter.com/EthanJSkolnick/status/751039071187709952?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw] This was most likely some negotiating ploy. Pat Riley didn’t want to overpay a 34-year-old Wade.

Already with one of the deepest rosters in the NBA, the Boston Celtics could be done wheeling and dealing this summer after signing Al Horford. But they aren’t. As team president Danny Ainge told reporters, per ESPN.com’s Chris Forsberg: “I think we’re not done,” Ainge said while clutching his iPhone in one hand, seemingly waiting [...]
