Heat at The Al this week

per MU twitter, Pat Riley saluted Al's statue.

Pays to have an NBA team in town. I'm sure the MU guys don't mind D-Wade / Lebron and crew hanging around for a few days.
Nice time to have Noskowiak, Stone and Ellinson stop by for an unofficial visit or open gym.

I have not said anything but I get all of the Bucks media e-mails. The heat had their shootaround at the AL this morning, Bosh, LeBron and Wade met with the media afterwards. Nice that all of the pregame footage of those three will be from The AL. They will continue to workout there until the series is over or heads back to Miami.

This is ultra-awesome.

Ok, now I am a big fan of the Bucks being stuck in the perpetual 8 seed

I'd say mega-radical

Funny, it is all over twitter now - people saying they are there, people heading there etc.

They were done hours ago.

Nothing wrong with that as recruits can relate to D-Wade.

I belive Wade will win another ring this year, and could very well end up an NBA hall of famer when he is done.

I think Wade is likely already a Hall of Famer.

Wade is in the Hall of Fame. Not only because he deserves it, but because the threshold to enter the HoF is not exactly a high one.

Agreed that Wade is already in. Two titles, Finals MVP, scoring champ, 9-time All-Star, by any measure he's been one of the 10 or so best players of the past decade. As Sultan said, the bar's not that high.

From ESPN, another mention of Marquette:
Wade sat out of most of the Heat's practice on Saturday at Marquette University, and coach Erik Spoelstra said the veteran guard's status likely won't be determined until just before Sunday afternoon's game.

Hope Wade is healthy for the rest of the playoffs.

Yeah, but there is no reason for him to play tomorrow.

Agreed - they can wait till Miami to close it out. He was so healthy for much of the season and was having arguably his most efficient season yet, not the best, but the most efficient and then the wheels started falling off health wise.

Picture of the Heat in the Marquette gym.
Cool to have LeBron & company in the gym. Heard Wade spent lots of time in the training room, getting rehab.
Posted on the Miami Heat facebook page.

Your Miami HEAT spent Saturday afternoon practicing at Marquette University in Milwaukee.

Chris Bosh (soreness in legs) and Dwyane Wade (knee) were both limited in today's practice. Wade is listed as day-to-day and a game-time decision for tomorrow's White Hot Game 4. All other HEAT players will be ready to go.
