would you move D Wade in the offseason and build around Bosh and LBJ for the future regardless of how the finals end?
If you were Pat Riley....

They need a better bench. James can't continue to play the amount of minutes he has in the playoffs for the rest of his career.
I think Bosh is more valuable then Wade is to the team.

bosh is more valuable because he's not redundant. d wade and lebron are redundant pieces. i'm not completely up to par with the NBA capthese days, but maybe they work something with the nets for a sign and trade for deron williams? or maybe a package of brooks lopez and other parts/picks/cap room? the nets would love to have d wade for the move to brooklyn and both williams and lopez would add new parts to the heat around lebron. problem with williams is that he'll probably get a max deal which hamstrings the front office in putting together a decent bench.
how Lebron would react to trading Wade, but keep them together if he isn't warm to the idea. If they win a championship, it will be a lot easier to fill in with veteran players looking to get a ring, they just have to do a better job of evaluating how much is left in the tank of the players they sign.
If they lose and Lebron shows up, you look to trade Wade, as a handful of role players or a solid role player and a good draft pick would do more for Miami than Bost does.
If they lose and Lebron disappears, I don't know what you do. No point in trading Wade if Lebron is going to be a no show. Maybe if you can get two good players for Wade, and one of them is the type of player that will want to take over at the end of games, even though Lebron is more talented. Somebody like Chauncey Billups and Sam Cassell were in their primes. Not sure who that is now.
