"Dwayne Wade is the greatest unselfish superstar EVER to play the game."

[ThaRegul8r]

Magic Johnson said this several times on SportsCenter.

[sc19]

Agreed. Even knowing that LeBron ruined his 2nd Finals MVP, he gave the team to him the following year. :bowdown:

[Young X]

That's not THAT far-fetched when you think about it.

[Vragrant]

Glad Magic pointed this out.

I think Jeff Van Gundy said it best. Out of the big 3 Wades' probably had to sacrifice the most in terms of their games.

[lefthook00]

It's easy to see how much crazier he could go if he was 100%. He should get that Kobe German bloodwork done on both knees and come back and win FMVP, he can easily do it, he has shown that he can absolutely TAKE OVER.

[LeBird]

Pippen, surely?

[DCL]

sounded like magic was really knocking on kobe when he was playing next to shaq. :lol

[Jacks3]

More like the most overrated superstar.

Horrific, historically bad post-season (16/5/4/50% TS) and got carried to a ring.

Amazing how that statement is quick to be brought up when Kobe is discussed but when it's Wade it's a whole other story.

Not hating, just stating.

Pip was never an Alpha like Wade.

I know you're a troll, but how is 16/5/4 while injured "historically bad"? He finished the post-season with 19/5/4/2/1 48% in the Finals. Anyone whose opinion matters (including Magic) gives Wade his proper dues.

The resident retard strikes again.

Wade was injured throughout the playoffs. Even today, you could see him limping and yet he scored 23/10 on over 11/21.

[Doranku]

Magic was also salivating over LeBron's ******* at the end of tonight's game.

The dude was a great player and terrible analyst. No weight needs to be given to what this moron, AIDS f@ggot says.

[Jacks3]

The resident retard strikes again.
oh look, it's this moron again.

Wade was injured throughout the playoffs..
:oldlol:

Pathetic excuse. 16/5/4/50% TS is HORRIBLE. One of the worst ever.

Dumbass Wade stan.

:oldlol:

[Jacks3]

I know you're a troll, but how is 16/5/4 while injured "historically bad"?
Are you kidding me? 16/5/4 on pathetic, historically bad efficiency (50% TS) is easily one of the worst post-seasons in history for a so-called superstar player.

He was absolutely awful all postseason.

:oldlol:

[Jacks3]

Amazing how that statement is quick to be brought up when Kobe is discussed but when it's Wade it's a whole other story.

Because Kobe was far, far, far better and more valauble than this version of Wade?

2000: 23/6/5/2
2001: 29+/7+/6+/2
2002: 27/6//5/2

I wouldn't say Wade got carried for 2012 as he was still playing like a top player (23/5/5/2) but this post-season? yeah, he was garbage. Got carried by LBJ.

Fact.

[tmacattack33]

It's either him or Pippen. And I'd go with him, because the thing he does best in basketball is score... And so he had to sacrifice a lot of that.

Pippen wasn't even an elite scorer and there were many things he did on the court better than scoring, so his game could still thrive even when he let Jordan run the show.

[Dresta]

Fact.
Never seen Wade have a finals like Kobe in 2008 and Kobe in 2004.

[Doranku]

Never seen Wade have a finals like Kobe in 2008 and Kobe in 2004.
You just witnessed a finals by Wade that was worse than Kobe in '08. :roll:

[WayOfWade]

Sometimes, you've gotta learn to take a back seat for the sake of winning. Something most superstars would (and do) have trouble with. Shaq knew to take a backseat to Wade, Ray and KG came to Boston knowing PP was still the leader, and Wade probably Sacrificed the most out of all of those like JVG and Magic alluded to.

[KobesFinger]

What about Kareem? Was the Lakers' leader until Magic came and then was fine with being second banana. Or Worthy, he was the leading scorer of UNC in 1982 (over Jordan and Sam Perkins) and was 2nd/3rd option his whole career. Baylor and Wilt too.

[Jacks3]

Never seen Wade have a finals like Kobe in 2008 and Kobe in 2004.
And that has nothing to do with what I wrote.

Wade just had perhaps the worst post-season for any so-called "superstar" EVER.

:roll:

[3LiftHeatCurse]

Magic is right. Wade is.


Wade was still in his prime, 3rd greatest SG to ever play, in 2010.

Yet still, he told LeBron and Bosh to come play team basketball with him. He stepped aside, swallowed his pride, and his ego, and let LeBron lead the team. All so they can sacrifice together and win rings as a TEAM.

"It's about the name on the front of your jersey, not about the name on the back"


Every single one of you would cream your pants to have such an un-selfish superstar play for your team. Laker fans probably see Wade and think he's a Martian, considering the hell they have been through with Selfish Egotistical Kobe.

[Jacks3]

16/5/4 on all-time bad efficiency (49.8% TS).

10th season and he's already a shell of his former self.

Why would Laker fans want a bum like that when they got Kobe and his 5 rings.


:oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol:

[3LiftHeatCurse]

Wade is playing with an injured bum knee. He was supposed to sit out and not play since the Milwaukee Bucks series, but Coach Spo revealed today in the post-game press conference that he told the team he will play injured and give the team whatever he can to help them win, and he will take the criticism from the media for his sub-par play.

So basically, Wade once again, unselfish, and plays injured - anything to help the team win.

Even though he knew people like you would criticize him for his stats. But fact is, Heat don't win without him.

[Jacks3]

16/5/4/ on historically bad efficiency and the Heat offense was significantly better without him the entire post-season.

Yeah, he was really helping out. :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

And it's funny how this clown is ALWAYS injured.

:roll: :roll: :roll:

[aj1987]

At this point, I'm pretty sure that fool is just trolling. I mean, nobody can be this stupid, right? Either that, or he's having a complete meltdown.

BTW, Kobe in '02 51% TS
Kobe in '04 50% TS

If you're bitching about Wade having a bad playoffs while being injured, what was Kobe's excuse?

Also, Wade shot 46% from the field and 75% from the line.

[Lebron23]

I hope he gets some treatment in Germany.

[Locked_Up_Tonight]

This is the dumbest thing to say.

Duncan is more unselfish than Wade. Same with Dirk.

Russell is more unselfish than Wade. The list goes on.....

Good Grief.

Far better playoffs than D-Whistle.

Dude had bone bruises. That's not an excuse for his horrible play all post-season.


16/5/5 on 49.8% TS. Unbelievably bad. :oldlol:

You're a ****ing retard.

His efficiency was TERRIBLE. Like, all-time bad.

Deal with it, you piece of shit.

Just awful, awful stuff.

Actually moron, Dwayne Wade's has chronic arthritis in his right knee and an acute bone bruise in the other. But let's not get in the way of facts here.

You are a tool. And you don't know shit. I'm willing to bet you've never played competitive sports a day in your life.

[Jacks3]

But let's not get in the way of facts here.

Why the hell would I be mad? Wade won his 3rd ring. He's the 3rd GOAT SG behind Kobe and Jordan and top 20 all time.
Wade is a smarter (higher BB IQ) and a fragile version version of Kobe. I mean, seriously, at what point do you stop taking shots in a Game 7 of the Finals, when you're shooting 25%?



Far better playoffs than D-Whistle.
Yep. Shot his team out of the playoffs.


Dude had bone bruises. That's not an excuse for his horrible play all post-season.
And this is why I say that you're retarded. Dude was amazing the the RS after the first month. Took only 16 shots per game and scored 21 PPG along with 5/5/2/1. He got hurt during the end of the RS and wasn't the same.


16/5/5 on 49.8% TS. Unbelievably bad. :oldlol:
Showed up in Game 7, unlike a certain someone. Greatest Finals performer of this era.


You're a ****ing retard.
You're so mad right now :roll: . 2 more rings and another FMVP and Wade's the 2nd greatest SG of all time.


49.8% TS.
46% from the field. At what clip does Kobe shoot the ball? Isn't it between 38 and 43%?


His efficiency was TERRIBLE. Like, all-time bad.
And yet his team won the ring.

Against the Pacers in '00 - 37%
Against the Sixers in '01 - 42%
Against the Pistons in '04 - 38%
Against the Magic in '09 - 43%
Against the Celtics in '10 - 41%

GOAT efficiency right there.


Deal with it, you piece of shit.

:oldlol:
Yep. I'm having a hard time dealing with Wade winning his 3rd ring and the Heat winning 2 in a row. Sucks to be a fan of the greatest Finals performer of this era.:roll:


EDIT: Totally forgot to include this fun fact. Bill Russell's career TS% is 47%. That must mean that he's the worst superstar playoff performer of all time, right?

[brain drain]

I don't see how Wade was so unselfish.

Without his two superfriends, his team would've been completely irrelevant.

It's not like he gave up the chance to win final MVPs on his own, cause there wouldn't have been any finals without Bron in the first place.

[Magic 32]

He's unselfish because he gave up his team. In 2011, Wade and Lebron were the two best players in the NBA. After the Finals loss, Wade realized that Lebron can't adapt to the new system (i.e. playing off the ball) and he himself gave up his team to Lebron and worked his game around to accommodate Lebron's playing style. That's the unselfish part of it. He gave up his team to Lebron, molded his game to getting accustomed to playing "Lebron ball", and gave up his stats to win rings. If he wanted to retain his stats, he would never given up his team (taking fewer shots per game and handling the ball less). He still would've ended up to 15 GOAT. 25/5/5/2/1 on 50% with elite defense and a ring and a FMVP.

He also could've said **** it and retained his stats and he COULD'VE won a ring with Lebron as his sidekick. He didn't though. He gave up his stats in order to win as many rings for the franchise as possible.

[Jailblazers7]

Magic isn't a bad analyst, he is just a born politician. He probably never says anything interesting because he censors himself too much.

[GrapeApe]

Another thing to add is that Wade is VERY well respected by his peers (coaches, players, former players). That speaks volumes and is a reflection of his greatness as a player and teammate.

[Micku]

****ing garbage player.

****ing idiot.

:oldlol:

More like not as good as a scorer. Since Wade didn't take any 3s nor did he went to the FT line, his eFG and TS are pretty much bad. He was still hard to stop on the floor as his FG% indicate. He was making his shots, but he wasn't getting to the FT line (only 3 a game) or shoot any 3s.

But still, overall he had a very bad playoff year. His worst yet. He stepped up a bit in the finals tho. But still, very bad by his standard.
