"As many people may know, throughout the season, I struggled with a recurring knee issue, "Wade said in a statement. "After the championship game, I visited my doctors for a round of comprehensive medical test, and the recent result dictated the need for surgery. While every part of me wants to be in London, I need to take this time to do what's best to improve my health and allow me to continoue to play the game I love."

Wade was the US team's leading scorer in their run 2008 Olympic gold in Beijing, scoring a game-high 27 points as the Americans beat Spain 118-107 in the Olympic final.

Despite having his knee drained during the NBA play-off, Wade averaged over 22 points a game during Miami's championship series triumph over the Thunder.

Marvin,

I am attaching the latest schedule from the Computer Training Center. As we have discussed in person, your computer skills are not quite up to normal and you would benefit from taking one of these courses. We also discussed the fact your first-year employee probationary status is still in effect and that you are required to take some training courses during this time. Please sign up for one of these courses as soon as possible. I would encourage you to choose a beginning word processing class, as your skills in that area are whole fully lacking. You have a good knowledge of database software, though you could benefit from an advanced-level class if that is what interests you most. The choice, of course, is up to you, but I recommend word processing. In choosing your class schedule, please remember that you must be present at our weekly staff meetings (Wednesday afternoon at 2:00). As soon as you have decided on a course and schedule, please contact Elizabeth Mortimer in the Human Resources Department and she will take care of the registration process for you. We at NZ, Inc. will, of course, take care of all the fees. All you have to do is attend the classes. Please e-mail me as soon as you are registered for a course.
