As Miami prepares the face Charlotte in their first round playoff game on Sunday, it appears they will do so without Chris Bosh.
Wade just revealed Bosh spoke to the Heat today about the playoffs. "He doesn't have the ability to be in it," Wade said.

Bosh played in all but 29 games of the possible 82, with his blood condition holding him out since the All-Star break. Without Bosh, it will even up the series between the two teams. With Bosh, they are an Eastern Conference contender, but without him, I just don’t see a deep playoff run happening.
Wade spoke about what Bosh told his teammates:

Without Bosh, the Heat will try to play small at the four spot and allow the force that is Hassan Whiteside to make plays (offensively and defensively) and allowing the Miami defenders to switch much easier.
Best wishes to Bosh and his family while his health situation is taken care of.
