I'm optimistic that we will have a season this year. Very optimistic."

Right now I'm continuing to try to chip away, get in better shape, continue to try to get my rhythm, my timing, get some explosion back, and when Coach lets me know, I'll go out there.

The Miami HEATConfirmed: The Miami HEAT re-sign Jamaal Magloire.

Pat Riley: "Re-signing Jamaal is a testament to his work ethic and his desire to win. Over the past two seasons in Miami, he has been an asset to this team, in terms of being a role model for our younger players, with his professionalism and his strong locker room presence."

Dwyane Wade says the hardest part of rebuilding the Miami Heat "is out of the way."

Speaking Wednesday morning at a charity golf tournament he co-hosts with Alonzo Mourning, Wade was saying that he remains confident Mike Miller will sign with Miami in the coming days and that he's thrilled with the moves the Heat made after he, LeBron James and Chris Bosh all decided to play together.

Wade says "we got the big three and now we've got to continue to build our team." He added that several players have contacted him to see if the Heat has space for them on the roster.
