Waiting, Just Waiting

Miami Heat fans are waiting, just wishing they could see the big three play together for longer than three minutes in a preseason game.  And like Tom Petty said, "the waiting is the hardest part."  There is some good news however, as Dwyane Wade was cleared to work out on Sunday afternoon.  While the team was hosting a scrimmage in Miami, Dwyane Wade was in Chicago working out and going through drills with a trainer.  All reports appear to be positive; however there is still no time-table set for his return.     
   
In other news, Wade was in Chicago to testify in his children’s custody case, and it is unknown when he will return to the team.  This is the first time he has testified, and it surely is a trying time for him.  Dwyane Wade has his work cut out for him, as he has to work through personal issues in both the physical and the emotional/psychological realm in the next week leading up to the opening night of the 2010 NBA season. 

"What he's dealing with is way bigger than basketball," Heat forward LeBron James said. "So when he's ready to come back, when he's ready to return, we'll accept him with open arms, of course. We'll make sure we hold it down here. What he has going on, we're all in support, this whole organization, us as teammates, us as friends, us as a family."  (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/truehoop/miamiheat/news/story?id=5696635

Wade certainly has a lot to go through; however his teammates are supporting him and can’t wait to have him back.  All the support he is receiving will help him maintain his focus on basketball and beginning the season.  Just one week left until opening night in Boston!
