Miami Heat trade rumors 2016: Regret admitted over Dwyane Wade decision

In the fallout of Dwyane Wade's new deal with the Chicago Bulls, there is no doubt that the Miami Heat are missing arguably their biggest sports star in history.

Wade agreed to a two-year $47 million deal that sees him come back home to his hometown of Chicago to play for the Bulls.

Along with the Bulls' rival, the Miami Heat, many were sure that Wade was going to retire with the Heat.

In 13 seasons in the NBA, Wade has had great success in Florida as he won three NBA championships: one in 2005-06 and back-to-back from 2011-12 and 2012-13.

Picked fifth overall in the 2003 NBA Draft, Wade has cemented his legacy as one of the best shooting guards in the game.

However, entering the summer of this season, he was at odds with the Heat whether the organization would give him the contract he felt was warranted to him.

Ultimately, the talks fell over and Wade found his road back to the Bulls. And now, Real GM reported how Pat Riley regrets how things unfolded.

The team president, Riley revealed how devastated he is with Wade's decision to leave the Heat.

"What happened with Dwyane floored me," he said. "I'm going to miss the fact of what I might have had planned for him and his future and how I saw the end and my thought process in how I could see his end here with the Heat. ... It's my responsibility to sort of make that happen. I didn't make it happen. Dwyane left, and the buck stops here."

Riley went on to say that he was not involved in the negotiation, but admitted that he should have stepped in.

"I have great regret I didn't put myself in the middle of it and immerse myself in the middle of it and get in a canoe and paddle to the Mediterranean if I had to, be in New York when he arrived on the 6th and greet him at the airport," he said. "I wasn't there in the middle of the negotiation, and that's my job. It's not going to be the same without him. We will forge ahead."
