Ok, not exactly what you might think and certainly not in the city you might be hoping but Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade did end day 1 of the free agency barrage together – at dinner in Chicago.
Both had interviews that day, both getting a visit with Pat Riley and the Heat. For Wade, it was about staying in Miami, which he most likely will end up doing considering all the love the city has shown him and the fact that he can get the largest pay day there plus have the ability to win a title or two.
For Bosh, it is about getting an opportunity to win and play with a good friend as well as making the money on a level his professional skills are worth. The stage is the only thing missing and with pushes from the Rockets, Knicks, Bulls, and even Raptors there is a lot to consider. He did comment that Pat Riley was passionate about winning. We’ll see if that, and Wade’s fire, will end up convincing him to aim for the Heat sign-and-trade scenario.
What is extremely interesting is that Bosh said in his tweet , “Just had dinner w @dwadeofficial. Great way to end day 1 of #freeagency although it feels like someone is missing……” [italics added for emphasis]. Wade re-tweeted the same sentiment, but the question is, who is missing from this photo? Lebron James?
This is starting to look more definite. Especially with rumors of the three settling to take slightly less on the first year paycheck, which if true would be somewhat miraculous in this day and age. Then again, Bosh and Wade know they have an audience and could be just messin’ with us!
