that's why shyt aint as simple as lookin at fukkin advanced stats. i'm sure all these retarded stats will show kyrie is easily better than d wade right now. but there's shyt basketball reference just doesn't show you....like muthafukkin HEART. d wade willed his team to 7 games vs raptors without a starting front court. could kyrie do the same?....fukk nah. wade was out there beasting on both ends while his whole squad was playin like shyt....that's true greatness. people just take shyt for granted....guys like wade are a rare breed. it was always crazy to assume kyrie could ever fill his shoes....even in old age d wade is still a better two way player than kyrie.
that's not to say wade doesn't deserve blame for how it ended with the heatles. he gave the keys to bron and started lackin on his conditioning. he willingly took on the sidekick role and put an unfair load on bron's shoulder's. bron shoulda checked him instead of bouncing but he was always shook to step up to d wade.....if wade stayed as focused as he was this year, the heat would still be winning titles.

I honestly don't think Wade had all THAT much to do with it (certainly it was a factor) I think at the end of the day Lebron wanted to go back home. I truly feel he wants to bring a championship to Cleveland, also the power that he and his crew have been given is truly something that can't be discounted. No NBA player, not Jordan, Magic, Bird, or Kobe, have wielded THIS amount of influence over a franchise.

I woulda laughed somebody at the room had they said that summer 2014.
