Wade is better at getting to the rim than Lebron but Lebron is better at finishing. As slashers, we are simply comparing their ability to get to the rim and in that case Wade is better.
One of the best slashers in the game?? [B][I]EDDIE JONES!!![/I][/B]
In his prime on the Lakers, that guy could slash for days.

Whoever started the list, Dude really? D Wade over Allen Iverson?!:biggums:
All right take it easy guy. DWade deserves to be number one or two on the list and to the other guy calling me a stupid a$$hole for having Grant Hill on my list, yeah now I regret it. I would put Rose, Westbrook, Kobe, Iverson, Vince and T-Mac over Hill.
Its really Wade, MJ, and everybody else. I dont know why nyggas just think Bron gets to the rack anywhere near as much as Wade in the half court, it aint close. Wade does not like to pull up off the dribble, for the last 3 seasons he has hardly EVER just simply pulled up, that boy wants to get to the basket everytime he touches the rock and he gets there and finishes on a top 3 in the history of the game level.
About Bron, he does not get there as much as Wade, period, fastbreaks would make it look compareable but thats not the case. Over the last 8 years Bron had a higher percentage at the basket by like 1.5-2, their attempts at the paint has fluctuated, but Wade has some seasons attempting more shots per game down there. Wade and MJ are just better than everybody else when it comes to the whole package(AI would have to be 3rd to me).
I think Monta Ellis is up there as well.
In my lifetime:
1- Michael Jordan
2- Allen Iverson
3- Tim Hardaway
4- Lebron James
5- Julius Erving
I'm suprised Tim Hardaway wasn't mentioned. He wasn't just a crossover, guy was a ball of fury. Strong, fast, footwork, handles...
EVERY game I've watched with G-State and there was seconds left in a quarter it was always an iso, despite having Richmond (another great slasher), Sprewell (seconded), Mullin (not a slasher but a guy who can get his shot off), it always was in T-Bugs hands. There was fear in opponents eyes. this guy used to wreck Payton one on one
[QUOTE=SacJB Shady]I think Monta Ellis is up there as well.[/QUOTE]
Dude has some ridiculous finishes at the basket. Monta pulls up a lot though, he is quick as hell but lacks the straight up moves to fukk with MJ, Wade, AI,??????? as far as the whole package. Monta is a great finisher fasho though.
Pierce?
1. Michael Jordan
2. Allen Iverson
3. Tim Hardaway
4. Dwyane Wade
5. LeBron James
Honorable mentions: Derrick Rose, Julius Erving, Kobe Bryant

:facepalm
All I know is that if we are being real, you cant have a top 5 list of "slashers" without AI, my main man that made "slashing" his main ammo in a repetoire of offensive weapons. Thatd be like making a tribute to coolest movies of all time and not mentioning Pulp Fiction.
