Dwayne Wade says no to Cleveland

by Pat McManamon on July 10, 2009

in Cavs, Dwayne Wade, McManamon

Kind of busy writing Sunday stuff for the newspaper, but I did notice this …

Dwayne Wade told Dan Patrick's radio show that he and LeBron James have talked about playing on the same team, and it could happen if they both become free agents in 2010. But it won't be in Cleveland.

"I don't like the weather up there," Wade said. "I've been in Miami for six years and my blood is thin."

It would be interesting to see how fast his blood would thicken if the money were right.

Check this out. Specifically the fourth photo down, the one with the black Spiderman crashing through the bathroom ceiling. I have a very similar motif in my bathroom, but mine features an Asian Paris Hilton crashing through the ceiling. http://xr.com/amho

Alan, how do you find this stuff!? Have you considered consulting for major software firms, as a 24-hour "Web Resource for the Weird & Wonderful"?

Clay, I think I'd first have to learn how to turn on a computer before any of them would even considering hiring me.

By the way, while it's on my mind, I was just thinking: If the Knicks can somehow shoehorn Boozer and his expiring contract from Utah, and the Knicks can also somehow clear sufficient cap space next summer, wouldn't that allow them to recruit and sign James, Bosh AND Boozer? They'd have Boozer's bird rights allowing them to go over the cap to re-up their own guy. That would be something.

Just a passing thought. Maybe it's nothing.

I think Bird should have been capitalized. Unless it was named after an actual bird.

I secretly have thought about Wade coming to Cleveland in 2010. He can't really say anything about coming here now because he is still under contract with Miami. He is smarter than that.

He says he doesn't like the weather. That is funny because he was born in Chicago and went to college in Milwaukee at Marquette.

I have heard from an unreliable source that is not involved in the organization and has no contact with Dwayne Wade that he will be playing alongside LeBron and reunited, 'cause it feels so good, with Shaq in 2010.

So, a kid growing up and going to college someplace means he enjoyed the weather? Logical leap straight into the hood of a car. In fact, just to give you an idea how incredibly insane the thought even is, Vegas has posted odds that there is a greater chance that Terry Pluto will knock out Dan Gilbert in the sixth round at the next bar mitzvah party.
