Dwyane Wade has 21 PPG on 61% in february!

[LeBron 06]

:rockon:

[aboss4real24]

played about 3 games

[Smook A.]

Yeah. He's not forcing up bad shots. His field goals are all high percentage shots like a dunk/layup/hook shot

[Castor Troy]

I really like D-Wade. Hope his knees hold up for a few more years.

he's making more mid-range jumpers too. but on a side-note. why do we criticize when players play smart? i would rather have Mario Chalmers taking a high-percentage shot than Wade going for a fade away three

Exactly what im talking about. Smart shots

[dabigbaws]

so when wade has improved his game the heat have improved. MVP of the heat

[plowking]

Hes got his midrange back. Completely opened up his game.

Hes not leaning and fading on it like he used to. Hes focusing on squaring his feet up and jumping straight up. You can tell there's been a massive change just by that.
I hated seeing him take fadeaways from the elbow. You just knew its never going in. Now when he pulls up, hes a lot more balanced, and as a fan, I think of it as a good shot more often than not now.
Not as automatic as 09, but its certainly close.

Do you realize how little logic there is behind that, or are you actually that stupid?

[fpliii]

This Heat team is unbeatable with current LeBron and a healthy Wade.

[navy]

I want Wade to start chucking open threes and get all green. As long as he's open I think its possible

[JohnFreeman]

His attempts at trolling are awful

[Crafty]

looking good so far, and in the playoffs there are no back to back games.

[MichaelCorleone]

Not bad Flash.:applause:

[Frozen1]

LOL f.uck you.

You clearly don

[raprap]

he looks much healthier as of late. showing some flashes of flash :applause:

[Dresta]

Exactly what im talking about. Smart shots
That wasn't what you were talking about: you were saying 'dunks, layups, hooks' etc. This shows the mid-range game is there.

[Hoopz2332]

The mid range jumper is back:applause: I made a thread about earlier this season that his jumper looked on this year.

[MichaelCorleone]

Hope he brings this in the playoffs.

[Nash]

I hope Wade gets to be healthy for one championship run. The last two he was badly injured, even averaging like 15ppg.

A healthy Wade and Miami don't have to go 7 games against Indiana or Spurs.

[SilkkTheShocker]

If Wade is healthy, than there is no team that has a chance of beating them this season.

[Lebron23]

Pacers could still beat them. I think it's more like if Wade isn't healthy, then it's very hard to see them going to the Finals this year. With Wade healthy, they have a better chance. I feel like this year Wade and Oden health are the x factor against them.

Carrying LeSoft, as always.

They beat Indy with wade hurt and bosh playing mostly terrible last year. Indy is better than last, but wade is also healthy. Oden is a spare part. Anything he contributes is gravy.

I think it's very unlikely that the Heat walk into the ECF completely healthy. Unless they are managing minutes with no sacrifice to their winning ways in the first two rounds, I would expect them to have at least a couple guys bruised and banged up. Much like my Spurs (who, age-wise some of the Heat's key players can relate to) you know there will be some wear and tear. That's the one advantage Indy has, they are practically young across the board.

You can talk about the last two years against Indy, but obviously they've matured a lot as a team since then. They have good to great defenders are every position, the deepest bench in the league, and the size and rebounding necessary to expose Miami's weakness in the middle. I don't think Oden will be able to be on the floor long enough personally to satisfy their needs defensively against Hibbert/West/Scola/Bynum, in my opinion. I think they are going to have to keep Birdman and Oden in the game more often than they would like which isn't going to help what is making them successful now, small ball and creating bad matchups for opponents.

I'd still say this is a 7 game series, but let's not forget at this point it's looking like that 7th game would be in Indiana. Proposing that both teams are completely healthy by the WCF is just a silly thought to me. Especially in the NBA today.

[Mass Debator]

^^^ I'd say Miami can pretty much sit Wade out the first two series and still make it to the conference finals. Maybe have him play the last 2-3 games in the semi's to shake off some rust.

[LeBron 06]

It is a myth


The heat played very well this year when Bosh and Anderson are together...Same for Oden and Bosh, but it is a small size

[mehyaM24]

great month, but most of this is because of lebron's play, who has been commanding double and triple teams. wade is basically getting free looks because of lebrons greatness. :applause:

Yeah, I've probably watched more Heat games than any other team this year just because they are on national television every other day. But yeah, I'd say the sample size is small when Miami uses two bigs.

The real determinant here is going to be which team is forced to adjust to the other. Is Miami going to force Indy to go small, or is Indy going to force Miami to go big? Whoever can make the other get away from their gameplan the longest wins the series in my opinion.

[red1]

Dwade getting back to form. I have a feeling that this year will be this group's best playoff run

[riseagainst]

best player on the Heat.

Wade has been getting most of his points while commanding the 2nd unit when LeBron is on the bench.

Ma man Wade takin' it to these hoes

[Mass Debator]

You don't watch the Heat games? He usually gets subbed out at the 4 minute mark for Ray Allen while Lebron plays the entire quarter. Wade than starts the 2nd quarter with the bench players while Lebron sits for like 4-5 minutes.

[Papaya Petee]

wade has started 8/10 games this month, but sure, ok. :oldlol:
Wade always sits the last 4 minutes of every first quarter then LeBron sits about 5 minutes in the beginning of the 2nd quarter. That's where you will see Wade go for his 8-10 point 2nd quarters. LeBron also sits in the first 3-4 minutes of the 4th quarter where Wade is running the offence once again with the 2nd unit.

Watch a Heat game then please come talk to me.

[mehyaM24]

...and? last night he got 20 of his points, in the first, second & third quarters......with lebron playing. :oldlol:

They blew the Knicks out the first 3 quarters already and he didn't even play in the 4th. Wade was 7/8 in the first and scored 10 points in the second quarter. I feel like you don't watch the games and just hand pick specific games. Wade makes it easier for Lebron too yaknow.

i watch all the games. lebron is my favorite player.

Then you should know Wade plays a lot with the second unit. Well, he IS the second unit. Both Bron and Wade help assist each other. You're acting as if Wade can't create for himself and needs Lebron's presence to get those stat lines. Both players % has increase while playing with each other, but without each other, they'll always get their numbers like superstars do. Wade just needs to get healthy for the playoffs. I don't really care about February stat lines, but I give credit where credit is due.

My #2 all time favorite after Mike :cheers:
