D-Wade by far. Miami is a much more marketable city, Carmelo Anthony will never get the exposure he deserves while playing in Denver. You have to respect the fact that he is sticking with the team that drafted him but you have to look out for your own career as well.
Nonsense, look at John Elway and Terrell Davis, that didn't seem to matter to them.I think Wade's in the better position though because I just think that the Denver management is stupid.
I think Wade is obviously in a better place. He just won a championship and will have plenty of chances to do it again. I don't know if Denver's ever going to get there.
Right now: Dwyane Wade, without question. Just won his first NBA Championship and was named Finals MVP, and with Shaq still around for another three or so years, he'll have a few more chances to win rings as long as he keeps carrying the Heat.For the future: It's a toss-up. Once Shaq retires, Miami won't be championship contenders anymore, and will enter a retooling phase. By that time, Denver should be improved, but who knows what they will do in Denver.
Finacially they are in the same position, haha. Wade is in a much better position obviously. Why? Because he has already achieved what a true NBA players who career is about. He doesn't really have to prove anything until Shaq retires. Melo needs to atleast make the All-Star team(officially), in my book he is already a two time All-Star.
Dwyane Wade, duh. THe Nuggets arent doing sh*t to improve the team, the Heat won the NBA championship last year, and once Shaq retires they will have some money to work with. Dwyane and the Heat will stay atop the League for years to come. You cant say the same thing about the Nuggets...:no1:

Wade is way better off than Melo. Wade has already accomplished what a lot of the veterans in the league have not: won a championship. And the way he played in the playoffs to get Finals MVP, I think he'll have more success in the game than Melo. Plus, I think that the Heat have better management and a better team than Denver does.
In the future it is definitely melo. Wade is gonna lose a bunch of parts in the future and i guarantee that its going to be extremely difficult to win a title anytime soon. Shaq will retire, it's going to be just him. While melo will probably get more people added. Thats how I see it.

Sorry but most players would rather come to Miami and play with Dwyane Wade then come to Denver and play with Carmelo Anthony. It wont be just DWade, once Shaq retires they will sign more role players to help DWade out. I guarentee you that this wont be Dwyane's last title...
Wade by far. For one, he still has a nice team around him for the next 2-3 years. Then after that, like CB4 said they will have a lot of cap space a few years down the road. I expect Haslem to statistically blossom in 2 years as well and don't count out on Walker, Posey and J-Will (all are not "young" but they arent old yet either). Plus, when that cap space clears - who doesn't want to play in South Beach? Miami is a high market area, hot/sunny, beaches, etc. It's a dream destination for a free agent to come and play in Miami with D-Wade.Plus like all you said, Denver isn't doing too much to improve their roster right now. Melo is obviously a star, but until you surround him with better pieces, a shooter, and a deeper team (that stays healthy!) he isn't doing anything other than filling up stat sheets and making some All-Star teams.

And yes Wade's team is better now, but won't be after Shaq is done, and a few other players.
