The List of players that current playoff teams wouldn't trade for Beal:

LeBron
Durant
Westbrook
CP3
Blake
Lillard
LMA
Paul George
((The spurs would never trade Duncan, and I doubt the Heat would give up Bosh because of interior deficiencies))

Wade was less of a PG for the Miami Heat than Jason Terry was for Atlanta Hawks. Dude was a placeholder and a failed experiment at PG. It only worked because there were vets on that team who could get their shots regardless and demanded attention - Jones, Shaq, Odom, etc. He ran no offense at all. Just brought the ball up the floor. And he wasn't particularly great at doing just that either.
You didn't watch the Heat

RealGM? That explains your posting not mine.

Wade was the primary ball handler and playmaker of the Heat every year before Lebron
That doesn't make him capable of being a PG at all. That just means his usage rate is high. Running an offense and pounding a ball into the dirt are two very different things. Gilbert Arenas, Monta, Jason Terry, Kobe, McGrady, etc - tons of guys, tons of all-star players, are the primary ball handlers on their teams. It doesn't mean that they're PGs at all.

Wade defended SG better than he ever did at PG, and showed promise as an elite scorer. That was the main reason he was moved over.

Pounding ball into dirt? Breh you can watch Wade right now and he's far better at organizing sets and controlling tempo than plenty of "pgs".

Again - and you just said it - he's better at SG than PG. And it was such a vast difference that the Heat literally had guys who should've been in the D-League or hooping for Puerto Rico starting at PG so that Wade wouldn't continue down the road of TMacing himself. He isn't better at running point than your average starting caliber PG in the NBA.

Miami would literally rather trade for and choke out Mario Chalmers than put Wade back at point. Let that sink in.
