How many games does D-wade play this year?

[SavageMode]

I see him playing max, 15 mins per game, 15-20 regular season games.
While sitting out the rest of the 61 games of the regular season.
Then 20 mins per game in the playoffs.

I can see his knees done this year.

Just play him enough so he's ready for the playoffs and no more. Bosh looking to put up Toronto numbers again.

Unfortunately even with Bosh, The East has gotten stronger this year.
D-wade and Bosh can no longer ride Lebron's coattails.

We shall see how it unfolds.

He'll play around 70 games and around 33-35 mpg.

However many times this thread is made.

55+

I think he just sat out a lot last year because Lebron was enough for the regular season

Agreed, and it was a huge mistake in hindsight. I hated the "maintenence plan" and I think it was detrimental for both Wade and the team. I don't think the Heat will make the same mistake this year.

[Smook A.]

Last season he only played 54 games. I think this season, he'll probably play around 60-65 games.

Considering he's going to have to carry the load more than he did past 3+ years with Miami, 45-50 games seems good.

He will have to take a backseat to Bosh, Wade can't be the Alpha dog anymore, not with his declined health.

[jaybee682]

55 games with averages of 20,5,5.

[Cold soul]

I'll go with 50-60 games.
