You’re actually rooting for laundry when you get right down to it.
– Jerry Seinfeld
For Miami Heat fans, in regards to Dwyane Wade, that quote is getting put to the test.
With Wednesday’s news of his signing with the Chicago Bulls, Wade’s 13-year stint as the Heat’s franchise player comes to an end under a dark cloud of mistrust. A sad ending to an illustrious career for a player that is as synonymous with Miami as sunshine, beaches, and bad drivers.
The dirty laundry that has and will be aired out in the coming days and weeks will likely paint a picture of betrayal that will have Heat fans choosing sides, against Wade or Pat Riley.
