Wade
Multiple sources (1, 2, 3) this morning have confirmed the inevitable: the Heat's franchise player Dwayne Wade will be shut down for the rest of the season to undergo treatment on his left knee. The next question for fantasy owners is who should one pick up on the Heat? I like Ricky Davis a lot because he can do just about everything. In addition to that, he has been playing 40+ minutes recently because of the all the injuries Miami has sustained. Here's a look at his numbers the l...

    Karma will get you Heat fans... Beasely and Rose will go to West coast teams and you will have shut it down, weeks- no months, early for nothing.

    P.S. have you ever seen a head coach decide to scout instead of coach? wow

    It's about time. Wade should just get healthy and go at it next year.

    Riley's a piece of crap who never stays by his team when they're bad.

    No, I've never seen a coach decide to scout in lieu of coaching his team. But when your in a situation like the Heat are (great odds at getting the #1 overall pick next year), maybe it is a smart business move. I just wonder who they'll be looking at. Probably a big man?

    Oh and Marinman, not only does Riley not stay with his team, but I don't think his team really is with HIM either in the sense that all of the Heat players pretty much despise his coaching ways. I think players in the NBA rated Riley as the coach they disliked playing for the most.

    If they couldn't get any worse, they do. Wade should have just got the surgery last year, and he might not be hurting right now instead of getting swept in the 1st round last year. I really feel sorry for them and hope they'll be better next year. And Mourning shouldn't go out like this too.

    They were terrible with him there and nothing will change when he leaves. Big deal! Suck it up and get ready for next season... This one's done for Miami... Stick a fork in it already!

    Dude it's Dwyane Wade, your going to blog about some one spell their name right. I think it's a good decision for him to get all healed, and then get back into shape again in the summer when he is good and ready.

    ask Portland and Seattle if you need to quit early to get the top picks/talent in the draft... Karma will have the last laugh.
