LOL.
whats next...... Wade is a 200/100 club guy atleast? or Wade is a DPOY winner?
easiest thing is to collect All Defensit 1st, 2nd teams year after year. Just look at kobe.
Even 1994 Pippen made it to 200/100 Club and tons of DPOY noise was made as to why Pippen dont have DPOY trophy.
Wade played defense here and there just like Kobe but never ever consistantly. that was good enough to lock in All D teams being a LAL or on position alone. aka "SG" position.
Wade and Kobe never ever went out and out like MJ and AI Defensively. saving tons of energy for playing offense. and saving up bad knees as in Wade's case.

Miami won 43gns and was a first rd exit. Someone like AI gets crucified for that. Talk about irony.
How convenient

That was hardly prime Shaq in 2005-06. He averaged like 13 PPG in the finals.

Who did Wade inspire?
"Inspiration" is most of the time a popularity measure and has little to do with effectiveness on the court. Garnett "inspired" way more future players than Duncan.
What benchmark are you using for a more accomplished and better career?
He has fewer All-Stars, less All League, no titles, and the 2nd lowest shooting efficiency of all players with over 20k career points. Please explain.

Past prime Shaq. I remember him looking washed in the Finals, it was sad to see.

Re: Wade or Iverson?
I’m going to take back excluding Wade chip as the man in an attempt to prove a point. Wade is behind AI as my favorite players of all time so I can’t do him like that. I will say if you swap AI with Wade that season? That playoffs? That finals even? AI would win a chip just the same. It was unfortunate he ran into the lakers dynasty at the time he did. If he had a complimentary scorer next to him (why didn’t we take Paul Pierce? No hindsight he was the right pick) I think we take down the Lakers. I have no issue with folks taking Wade over AI. He has valid arguments to why. I’m not backing down from taking AI over him. But I can’t be throwing shade at Wade knowing how high he is on my personal fav lists either. That’s my guy. 2 legends, 2 guys who left it all on the floor. Attacked relentlessly. Wade was fun to watch.

When did Iverson average similar scoring OR efficiency to 06 Finals Wade (not even "AND") in any round of the playoffs leading to a win?
03 against Charlotte? Come on.

You mean 2006 Shaq that averaged 13.7 PPG, 10.2 RPG in the Finals? That's the Shaq you're talking about? When Wade was putting up 34.7 PPG. 7.8 RPG, 3.8 APG, 2.7 SPG. Hell...Wade averaged more blocks in the series than Shaq did.
But let's forget about that season?

AI avg 34ppg vs Raptors. The year sixers lost in finals. Where Ai avg 35ppg there but it wasn’t a win so it doesn’t count.
You’re welcome

On 50.2 TS%. Wade would never be that inefficient.
