At learning anything from this front running ass bum
Wade was in my top 5 favorite player in Marquette and when he first came into the league, precisely because of his talent. That Heat-Hornets series in 2004 made me a believer. And the Heat were one the teams I respected the most because of the Knicks-Heat battles in the 90s.
But I became a hater when he started all his diva shyt of flopping all over the court and playing for foul calls
Wade got a little big headed and he is a bit of a flopper but the dude is pretty much the smoothest player I've ever seen play the game.
I got a finance degree, breh. If you ain't bending the rules and trying to snatch every advantage (Especially in something like basketball where every possession matters) then you food.
Its like giving a hard elbow to deter nikkas when you boxing out.
I'm a Wade Stan so I'll justify anything.
06 was a decade ago and you still mad that D Gawd

It's all good breh, I have no problem with bending the rules, for example defending a lil extra hard and physical, but acting and diving all over the floor is just some Hollywood shyt, for me that's out of the realm of basketball plays. Kind of like the whole "trying to draw a foul" thing now, players aren't even trying to score on some drives
Kicking out the leg on three-pointers and falling down on half their three-point attemps
So yeah, my hate for Wade really comes from that. ESPECIALLY since he's an all-time talent and doesn't NEED the extra shyt to be great

Wade is definitely an exaggerator but I don't really see him as a dude who is only looking to get fouled. He doesn't use that weird rip through move like Harden or Durant.
He'll put dudes into the air (With the GOAT pump fake) and he'll try to draw contact but Wade is way more of a dude who like turn contact into fouls than a dude who who is looking for fouls to bail him out.
It's just his bad moments can be pretty damn bad.

Lebron has never played on a team where a washed up Jermaine O'Neal and Mike Beasley were his 2nd and 3rd options. Dude played one year with Beasley when he was buried on the bench and wasat his immaturity...imagine if Beasley was actually a main part of the rotation
I dont think Supercool Beas or Jermaine Oneal was there for the 15 win season, but Shawn Marion and Ricky Davis were, and so was Haslem
Cleveland had Larry Hughes and Drew Gooden who were traded at the deadline and brought in post Detroit Ben Wallace, Delonte West(servicable player) and Wally Szczerbiak
Here is the 2nd half/ play off roster that Cleveland rocked with minus Lebron
Devin Brown
Titty Gibson
Big Z(decent big man)
Damon Jones
Dwayne Jones
Joe Smith
Ben Wallace(shell of himself)
Billy Thomas
Anderson V(good energy guy off the bench)
Wally
Delonte West
Sasha Pavlovic
That roster is buns just like the Miami 15 win roster
Ronnie Lott

So did Jordan, magic and bird
Marion was injured and missed liked 60 plus games (And never got to play with Shaq), Shaq missed like 50, and Wade missed like 30.
We were trotting up starting lineups of Mark Blount and Baron front court for a good chunk of that season.
People also forget that he had a torn labrum and dislocated shoulder the year before that was so bad he had pretty bad nerve damage and he was trying to play himself back into shape and through a bunch of pain.

Marion started in 62 games total that season between Phoenix and Miami so he wasnt a shell of himself just yet, Wade played in 51, Ricky Davis played all 82, Shaq got traded for Marion that season, Jason Williams started more than half that season. Flat out there is no excuse for a Wade led team to only win 15 games

Bbbut Wade didn't have any all star help so Shaq doesn't count?
Gary payton,Antoine walker,Alonzo morning all former all stars don't count ?
You must've been born in 2002.
I'm not even a Wade fan...at all....so I have no bias here.
Shaq and Gary were old as hell. Gary was in his prime in 1996. Shaq was in his prime in 2001. By 2005 - 2006 both were WASHED. Wade averaged like 32 points that finals. If you watched basketball you would know that. Wade got more help from the refs
than he did his team.

Not by much

Agree on both accounts. Don't bring up tha basketball abomination that is Harden
At least we all know Wade is an all-time great regardless of rules, flops or whatever extra shyt. Flopden on the other hand
Wade was working his way back from injury, Marion only played 15 hands with the Heat and only like 10 games with Wade because he got shut down.
We were starting MARK BLOUNT.
Injured and healing Wade / Haslem plus injured Shaq plus only like 10 games with Wade and Marion playing together equals bad recipe.
Do people really think that Wade being healthy wasn't the biggest boost to that team next season?
