MIAMI — This is one you could have seen coming from miles away, without even the need for a closeup of the Dwyane Wade statue that now sits on the front steps of Kaseya Center. Charles Barkley does not approve. A lighthearted — although, at times, heavy handed — critic of the Miami Heat over the years, Barkley could not help himself when it came to a Tuesday night discussion of the statue unveiled on Sunday, offering his comments on “Inside the NBA” on TNT, the same network that once featured Wade as a host. Barkley chimed in after host Ernie Johnson opened the conversation about the Heat’s first-ever such tribute. “In one of the weirdest coincidences of all time, we’ve all dressed as Dwyane Wade on Halloween,” Johnson said, an inference that the panel — which also included former NBA players Shaquille O’Neal and Kenny Smith — bore as much as resemblance to Wade as the face of the bronze statue.

He retooled the strength and conditioning program and hired two new coordinators, Ted Roof (defensive) and Tim Harris Jr. (offense). He also relied heavily on the transfer portal to rebuild a roster suitable for competing in the conference. Now, eight games into the season and facing the likelihood of another sub-.500 record, Malzahn made more changes. Roof was fired Monday after the Knights’ defense gave up at least 30 points for the fourth time.
