If D.Wade had honed a solid skill set he would be GOAT right now.

Let's keep it real, the man athletically freestyled until he ran on complete E.

He was a jack of all trades, but a MASTER OF NONE. Let's say he honed a superior midrange and three point game 8-9 years ago. He'd still be putting up 25, 5, 5, 2, and 2 easily.

All freestyles eventually come to an ABRUPT end, no matter how great they are while in progress.

He masted the art of Slashing. Problem is his body couldnt substain that kind of play

He is no less than the 3rd greatest finisher at the basket of all perimeter players, top 5 ever at getting to the line, top 10 deadliest crossover ever, pound for pound the GOAT shot blocker, and has always had an elite post game

He's the 3rd best at his position....All Time

Honing wouldn't have put him above Mike or Kobe as GOAT

 

[THE MACHINE]

Post game and midrange were absolutely elite.
Elite slasher and finisher
Elite help defender

OP, you should make this about if Wade had better knees and a three point shot.

 

[Jplaya2023]

Wade never took care of his body like he should've done. He relied 2 much on lebron and his game slipped

and honing won't help him grow extra 2 inches either

 

[WMG the 2nd]

He was an elite slasher though arguably top five ever when t came to that
He’s only behind jordan and kobe Bryant as well it’s guys below him that “mastered a skill” but weren’t as good

3rd? Whos the second? Cause even as a Kobe stan, i always did think wade was a better finisher. Unless we putting Kyrie in the conversation.

Y'all OD'n on dwade threads. Relax

 

[jadillac]

Dude is in his 14th or 15th yr.

He's not still gonna be putting up 25 a night under any circumstance.

What I'm saying is if he would of slowed his tempo several years ago and relied more on the brilliant IQ he possess, and added a consistent game to game midrange/three his game would still be on a superior level.

Instead he went athletically crazy every night, fell all over the paint every night, and fell off more drastically than any elite athlete you've ever witnessed at his playing position.

His midrange is excellent and he's been a beast in the post.
