There is no doubt that it was a big loss for Miami Heat to see Dwayne Wade joining Chicago Bulls. The team used to have a powerful trio with LeBron James, Chris Bosh and Wade. How would Heat prepare for the next NBA season now?
According to reports, Miami Heat is eyeing Los Angeles Clippers' nine-time NBA All-Star Chris Paul as a potential replacement for Dwayne Wade. Per Centrio Times, Paul is one of Heat's targets to join their team in the next NBA season. In fact, they are willing to trade the veteran Goran Dragic to acquire Paul.
Well, it might not be too difficult for Miami Heat to get Chris Paul because according to the report, LA Clipper is more willing to keep their power forward Blake Griffin over Paul. Thus, there are high chances to see Paul joining Chris Bosh in Miami Heat in the next NBA season. But that is if Heat will win the competition against New York Knicks, who is also reportedly interested in Chris Paul.
However, some sources claimed that Chris Paul has no intentions of leaving LA Clippers. Both Paul and Blake Griffin are staying in the Los Angeles team. LA Clippers head coach Doc Rivers said that Griffin and Paul have already expressed their interest in staying with the team and added that "They want to play for us forever."
Meanwhile, speaking of Miami Heat and Dwayne Wade, Parent Herald previously reported that Wade's former team regrets in letting him walk away to join Chicago Bulls. In fact, Heat's poor choice was a great surprise to many NBA fans, including LeBron James.
Dwayne Wade said per News.com.au that when LeBron James was with him in Miami Heat, the Cleveland Cavaliers small forward would always say that D-Wade is the next Kobe. James was very positive that his best buddy will get the Kobe deal and was shocked upon learning that the next potential Kobe gets into the free agency market.
