Dwyane Wade's Program About More Than Just Weight Loss

Thursday night, Dwyane Wade will host a fashion fundraiser in midtown Miami.

While many in that crowd may wonder what he's wearing, basketball fans might be more interested to see how tightly—or loosely—he's wearing it.

After photos were released of a shirtless Wade on the beach with girlfriend Gabrielle Union, which you can view at PopSugar.com, some observed that he had lost weight. That seemed in line with Pat Riley's post-championship request that the Miami Heat guard drop about a dozen pounds to take pressure off his sore knees.

Yet don't count Tim Grover among those counting pounds.

Grover has been Wade's on-again, off-again trainer in recent years, most successfully working with him during the summer of 2008, prior to Wade's spectacular comeback season of 2008-09. He's been "on" again with Wade this summer, and communicating regularly with Heat officials.

Contacted by Bleacher Report on Tuesday—prior to the Twitter dust-up between Wade and Oklahoma City forward Kevin Durant—Grover cautioned against solely emphasizing Wade's weight.

That work will ultimately be measured by how freely and dynamically Wade plays, several months down the line.

"Dwyane's workouts have been outstanding," Grover said. "He's done everything we've asked of him, and we have asked a lot."

Nor should Wade's ongoing motivation be an issue, after Durant said James Harden should replace him in Sports Illustrated's NBA top-10 list, and Wade followed by sending out a photo of "a note to self" to prove him wrong.
