"I can’t comment on any of that — on any of that stuff, so we haven’t been able to comment on it since everything started. I certainly look forward to commenting when it’s all over, but until then, they won’t allow us to comment."

But then Wade decided to add a little color to his ‘no comment’ answer the first go-around, where he discussed his team being in Tampa to play basketball and how this doesn’t affect anybody on the team.

"I will say this: In general, Shelton, you cover us every day. When stuff is swirling around, you have to narrow your focus, and so you can’t worry about everything that’s going on around you.You have to narrow your focus. We’re here to play basketball. Whatever is going on doesn’t affect anybody on our team. Not one of our players was here hardly. I mean, it doesn’t affect anybody.
