It seems like no one wants to be a number 2 type player on a team its like they will never get credit but they are needed to win.

i'm sure there are players who wouldn't mind. but if you had a choice why wouldn't you want to be the main man?

true but then you got marbury leaving the wolves because he did not want to be a number two behind KG...D12 left...T-Mac left...I bet westbrook getting sick of the blame right now.

only because of declining health. if he was still cooking like the old dwade, i guarantee he would be taking more shots.
if wade was perfectly healthy he'd be the number one option on this squad. Lebron is better at (and seems to prefer defering and passing)

I think Lebron is more of a all around player he enjoys passing wade when healthy is more of a go to player.

even Kobe and shaq spilt up becuase of the number two issue
truthfully even though shaq was better at that point. he should hav defer because obviously when you can't hit your freethrows you can't be the go to player in clutch situation and shaq was getting older anyways.
