font-size: 12pt;\">Anyway, it\u2019s pretty incredible that a dwindling talent like Wade would even get the opportunity to revisit this decision, but for what it\u2019s worth, he has name value and some talent left, and we revisit a familiar crossroads in his career, where he is looking at the choice between a one-year, $24 million option year, or declaring the scary, scary waters of free agency.\u00a0 And considering the fact that he\u2019s now 35 and his numbers have been on a gradual decline over the years, it seems like a very obvious choice on what he should consider, but then again I thought the same thing back when he took the chance anyway, and gambled away $9 million dollars.\u00a0 Owned.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Lora; font-size: 12pt;\">So it seems like kind of a no-brainer that Wade is leaning towards accepting the $24 million option year, because there\u2019s no guarantee that he\u2019s going to get a multi-year deal that can exceed that, let alone match it.\u00a0 Although it\u2019s still speculation, and \u201che\u2019s leaning,\u201d there\u2019s still no guarantee that he\u2019ll actually accept it, even if were the most ingenious idea in the world for him, but I hope for his sake that he learned his lesson in the past and will actually just take the guaranteed fuckin money and not be so greedy, although it would be the quite the hilarious story if he ended up gambling again and then ended up getting the shaft again, and signing like a two-year deal for like $18 million with like, the Milwaukee Bucks.\u00a0 Owned.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not that I pay much attention to the NBA offseason, a headline caught my eye that revisited a topic I wrote about a long time ago: \u201cDwyane Wade leaning towards picking up $24 million option.\u201d\u00a0 This was amusing to me, because I remember writing about, in great detail, the foolishness exhibited by Dwyane Wade a &hellip;
