Where Wade separates himself from #2 on Heat's games played leaderboard is the total amount of minutes that he's played for the franchise over the years. At 31027 minutes played in total, Wade is well clear of his nearest competitor Haslem by a margin of close to 10000 total minutes (Haslem has taken the floor for 21444 minutes over the course of his career).

Playing heavy minutes right from his rookie season, Wade averaged over 35 minutes per game for each of his first 8 seasons in the league. The successful integration of LeBron and Bosh into the Heat's lineups allowed Wade to take a bit of a backseat, and his workload was reduced slowly but surely during the last 5 seasons of his first Miami Heat go-around.
