Q: Is there any room left at the inn? -- Teri.

A: Well, the available room on the Heat roster certainly is filling up fast, and it could be the kids who get squeezed unless the Heat shed some veteran salary. Basically, the depth chart at the moment shapes up with Hassan Whiteside, Chris Andersen and Udonis Haslem at center; Chris Bosh, Josh McRoberts and Amare Stoudemire at power forward; Luol Deng, Justise Winslow and Zoran Dragic at small forward; Dwyane Wade, Gerald Green and Josh Richardson at shooting guard; and Goran Dragic, Mario Chalmers and Shabazz Napier at point guard. And that's the 15-player regular-season limit right there, with no room left for James Ennis, Tyler Johnson, Henry Walker or any of the other players on the summer roster. The logical resolution would be, in light of the Heat's tax issues, to move Birdman and Chalmers out. That would re-open the door, say, for Johnson and Ennis. The other issue is that Zoran and Udonis as somewhat untouchables, so you have to get creative otherwise. But the 15 I initially mentioned probably give the Heat the best chance to win, if money wasn't an issue. Which it always is.

Q: Wade also wrote "one more year" on his Instagram. Does that mean he's planning on leaving? -- Ariel.

A: I think we all need to take a step back from reading something into everything once a player puts pen to paper. No matter what happens next, Dwyane is in for the coming season. And I think he meant the phrase in a good way, that after all these years with the Heat, there again will be one more. I truly believe that Dwyane essentially agreed to a one-year lifetime contract, that accommodations will be made for at least another season after this, and as many more as he chooses with the Heat down the road. There could be a time when Dwyane Wade stops bristling about being referred to an old man with the Heat, because he just might grow into one on this roster. For now, it's all good.

Q: Must you always mention the fire extinguisher when referring to Amare? -- Rich.

A: Don't worry, there is no fire-extinguisher outside the Heat locker room. So this time, it's all good.
