No Love Lost For Wade in Chitown

[Jplaya2023]

Thats what ultimately kept Wade from getting to the MJ/Kobe class, he got by on his talent alone but he never had the same drive with his work ethic those guys had. Even in his younger days he was cutting corners in practice, following the lead of Shaq's lazy ass.

Yeah i always said, Wade skated by on talent and his athletic nature. He never really refined his skills as he got older.

Wade never developed a consistent outside shot, never trained or took care of his body. Never reached his full potential.

It's one of the reasons lebron bounced, wade was letting lebron carry the load while he slacked, and my sources indicated that pissed lebron off even more. Wade was missing games and lebron found out just minutes before tip. Wade became fat and lazy.

LeBron exposed? When?

That's Wade, alright
Pat Riley said it himself: " He (Wade) is probably one of the best onball defenders to ever play but he only plays like it when there is money, a [NBA] championship or [Olympic] medal on the line".

Or something to that effect.

That was in response to the Olympic commentators (I think Bob Costas) talking about "Wade is defending at an elite level again...Wait til Pat Riley sees this..." when Wade was shutting down people in 2008 Olympics after his surgery .

That is why Wade and Riley had been at odds since. The way you motivate Wade is to take shots at him which he hates but gets a rise out of him. Those "...they quit! They fukkin' quit!" comments Riley made in that hallway in front of the camera were partly about him that year before.

Remember when Wade came into the league Riley sold him to Heat fans as, and I quote " a more athletic version of Gary Payton" meaning he was a great Point Guard and could shutdown opposing PGs. (Yes Wade was drafted to play PG).

Many Heat fans didn't know mush about him and wanted TJ Ford or Chris Kaman (since we had just lost Zo to the illness)

It's only by midway through his rookie season that fans realized he could be a beast on offense scoring the ball.

[Kings County]

He is the second best SG of his time behind Kobe, and certainly in his class

 

[WMG the 2nd]

hypothetical:

Wade is bought out, Melo is finally moved they both come to cleveland.

Can that team beat the Warriors?

No

@CHICAGO getting hate in his own city

 

[Rollo Goodlove]

We talking about a game

If a 3-time champ tells you that you aren't working hard enough, then you probably weren't. He knows what it takes as a young player to be a star. Imagine Bobby Portis or Jerain Grant tryna boss up on D Wade.

You have to lead by example though. They see wade slacking off in training and on the court, he turns around and criticise them for poor work ethic and they hit him with the
