    Why do the Heat have cap issues?

    This team is garbage. They have nothing on roster and they have no cap space meanwhile state found room for Durant? I thought Riley was smart? How was riley going to sign kd? Someone fill me in.

    They just don't want to commit 3 years of big money to Wade. Pretty sure they're in decent cap position.

    No they aren't. Media has reported they have no room. Pretty sure they are reporting facts. I do agree with their stance on wade

    The issue with Wade isn't the money. It's the third year which apparently they aren't willing to give him.

    Teams like Denver have nothing to lose. If he plays well they can flip him to a contender for something decent at the deadline.

    If Wade is gone... who's going to pay to see Heat games? No one.

    They have big issues.

    Whatever Wade wants... just pay him.

    I think they would've traded Dragic and McRoberts to make KD work. Not 100% sure but I heard something like that.

    I believe they would have had to release Deng and not sign whiteside to make room for kd.

    Deng is long gone and Whiteside was one of the things they were hoping to use to lure KD in. The players they were getting rid of were Dragic and McRoberts.

    Riley screwed Wade after the loyalty he provided over the years. Granted, he's not worth the money he wants right now, but he gave up a ton to allow them to win in the past. They used him up, and then spit in his face.

    Hah, true. Other teams were willing to pay more too. Glad he got paid, but he shouldn't have let himself get screwed but he wanted to win so can't fault that.

    Again you have zero clue coach.. Stadium was full all season last year.. Also the Stadium is probably one of the best in the country ..

    I worked at Staples for the Clippers and worked briefly for the Heat at AA .. I have also been to the Boston Garden, MSG, The Palace, Fieldhouse, and Oracle..

    AA is the best stadium out of all of them.. and if you are a high roller .. it's hands down the best..

    Wade still a top 10-15 player and they didn't treat him with respect. Pretty sad. Miami in rebuild mode now, bosh will probably retire cause of his condition.

    I think because he's old and has bad knees. Not much about respect. They were just taking care of business.
