Yes, things are weird between Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat. No, that doesn’t mean he’s signing with the Cleveland Cavaliers, or the Denver Nuggets, or the Milwaukee Bucks, or the Chicago Bulls. Yes, it feels more and more likely that, at some point before retiring, he will play somewhere other than Miami. Beyond the [...]

When we were first introduced to Erik Spoelstra on a grand stage, during the LeBron era in Miami, he was soundly criticized. The knocks against Spo was that he was just coasting by because he had a great team. The unfortunate consequence of having a great team is that the coach will be accused of [...]

Will Dwyane Wade be playing with any team other than the Miami Heat next season? No. He just likes to pretend that’s a possibility.

Chris Bosh and the Miami Heat are finally on the same page regarding his health. We think. Maybe. The latter part of Bosh’s season was cut short this year due to another blood clot issue. He missed the end of the 2014-15 campaign for a similar issue. For a while, it wasn’t clear if he [...]

With LeBron James set to opt out of his contract this summer, you knew free-agency rumors, however seemingly farfetched, were coming. You just didn’t expect this. Typical chatter would have him bolting Cleveland if the Cavaliers failed to win a title. But ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith delivered a different message entirely, per Dan Feldman of [...]

Chris Bosh’s future with the Miami Heat has been in doubt since the All-Star break, when he was once against placed on the sidelines due to a blood clot issue that, yet again, kept him shelved for the rest of the season. Some have speculated that Bosh has, in fact, played his last game for [...]

After missing the latter half of the 2015-16 season, like he did in 2014-15, with another blood clot issue, Chris Bosh’s future in the NBA appears to be in jeopardy. From ESPN.com’s Brian Windhorst: Between now and this fall, Chris Bosh and the Heat are going to have to reach a decision about what to [...]

The Miami Heat are limping through the NBA postseason at this point, with all-star forward/center Chris Bosh and double-double machine Hassan Whiteside currently sidelined.
