CLEVELAND, July 5 (UPI) -- Imagine an NBA defense trying to stop a driving Kyrie Irving and Dwyane Wade, while LeBron James is free to roam in and out of the paint. Although somewhat far-fetched, the possibility is not out of the question.

Despite being offered the $20 million annually he was seeking, from the Miami Heat, Wade is chatting up the Cleveland Cavaliers. Huffington Post sports columnist Jordan Schultz reported the news.
League source: Dwyane Wade in preliminary talks with #Cavs to reunite with Lebron. Talks still early.

"League source: Dwyane Wade in preliminary talks with #Cavs to reunite with LeBron. Talks still early," Schultz tweeted.
Wade, 34, is scheduled to meet with the Milwaukee Bucks Wednesday.
There could be bad blood between the 12-time All-Star and the organization he has spent 13 seasons with. His wife, Gabrielle Union, eluded to that with a tweet last week saying: "When u waiting for a text/email/skywriting and nada... thanks for being crystal clear."

The Heat was silent with Wade as it pursued free agent big-fish Kevin Durant and offered $98 million to retain Hassan Whiteside.
Wade averaged 19 points, 4.6 assists, and 4.1 rebounds per game last season. James and Wade spent four seasons together in Miami, winning titles in 2011 and 2012.
Was told that, as of now, Dwyane Wade’s meeting with the Bucks on Wednesday is still on. FWIW.
