Wade says decision to leave Miami remains ‘surreal’

A year ago, Wade and the Heat almost parted ways before settling on a $20 million, one-year deal. Chicago’s Doug McDermott wore the No. 3 for the Bulls for his first two seasons in the league, but after the news broke that Wade was coming home in free agency, McDermott posted on Instagram that the number belongs to the Bulls’ new superstar.

So if Wade keeps his off-season residence in Miami, he can avoid IL state tax on his national sponsorship income, Bakhai.

Leandro Barbosa goes back to his old team, the Phoenix Suns, agreeing to a two-year, $8-million deal. Sure, this wasn’t exactly a hard-hitting interview, but this is not a show devoted to an audience of sports fans who want to know about his relationship with Pat Riley.

“Thank you @Dwyane Wade for a great 13 yrs!” “I just want to thank all my fans, we call it ‘Heat Nation.’ The way they embraced me …” “I look back with pride and amazement at all we have accomplished together”. And Butler, the guy GarPax already had, took 37.1% mid-range jumpers and shot only 37% – this is far too much mid-range shooting, mid-range shots being the worst in the National Basketball Association.

In an open letter to Miami, Wade, 34, wrote: “I started my National Basketball Association career with the Miami Heat in 2003 and it has been an honor to have played with them and help build a winning franchise with three National Basketball Association championships”. But even when admitting all of this, it just isn’t enough to make me think the silver lining is worth a damn.

Kevin Durant used The Players Tribune to announce his free agent plans but Dwyane Wade may use the power of television to outline his next career move. I’ve envisioned myself, being in the backyard always having a Bulls jersey on, always envisioning Dwyane Wade’s name being called in the United Center. Appearing on “Live! With Kelly” Thursday, Wade said he’s hardly slept, and lost between 5-10 pounds from the stress.
