ESPN’s Brian Windhorst tweeted that Wade has canceled some meetings.

“I’m born and raised in Chicago”, Wade said.
Once free agents can officially start signing contracts Thursday, Wade reportedly will sign a two-year, $47.5 million deal that includes a player option.
The 34-year-old shooting guard will sign a two-year deal with the Bulls, one that will pay him about $47m. “We’re going to need to get you a coat”.
Wade is hoping for a longer deal or more than the $20 million he made last year if he is to accept a two-year deal, a source told Shelburne.
That was a problem when Rose and Butler were on the court together.
Wade Jones?When the Heat won the NBA Championship in 2006, they held a ceremony inside the American Airlines Arena after the parade. They certainly don’t have enough talent to overcome the Cavs in the East, or any number of teams out West, and while the additions of Rondo and Wade just aren’t enough to put them over the top, it is a smokescreen created to fool Baulls fans into thinking this is a team on the rise.
“I’m born and raised in Chicago”, Wade said. Don’t get me wrong, Wade makes them better, but the Bulls could just as easy be the 10 seed in the East next year as they could be the 5 seed – this is a collection of talent on the roster that flies in the face of what now works in the National Basketball Association. He was never the Heat’s highest-paid player during this contract because it was the first contract of his National Basketball Association career and the Heat acquired expensive superstar center Shaquille O’Neal in a trade.
Miami often was known as “Wade County” thanks to the three championships and 13 years the future Hall of Famer contributed while playing in the area. All the while, a key was to not give up any assets in the form of first-round draft picks or young players, which they didn’t.
“Growing up, Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls was the team for us”. “We call it Heat Nation….”
The Heat and Wade had done this song and dance before – as recently as last season – only for the two sides to come to terms on a deal.

In his media session, Rondo called the Bulls “Jimmy’s team” while at once also adding he, Wade and Butler are the “three alphas”. “I think it is”, said another listener. But it’s a lot I learned from [Wade] in one year. She says what she wrote isn’t what she thinks about what her husband does for a living.
