Wade is a legend and a top 3 SG of all time. But man when he has to chase Klay around all those screens..:russ:
Nevermind Klay, how's he gonna chase any guard around screens? Any combination of IT, Rose, Wade and LeBron and teams are gonna eat from behind the arc. This is why I can't see one of Rose or Wade in the rotation come playoff time (providing that IT is healthy).

Breh if he does this type of shyt against the dubs...Klay may dead ass score 30 in a half. They capitalize on almost every mistake you make defensively..especially if you're being lazy.

@ISO here's another raise with this clip.

I suspect there's gonna be a lot of finger pointing following all the defensive breakdowns for the Cavs this season.

LeBron looking at Wade
Wade looking at Bron
LeBron looking at Rose
Wade looking at Rose
LeBron looking at IT
Wade looking at IT
LeBron looking at Love
Wade looking at Love
And Love, IT and Rose looking like :dwillhuh:

They can have all the chemistry in the world, it ain't gonna turn back time. Wade is already shortlisted for the Larry Holmes Gardens and LeBron is entering his 15th season.
Nobody's saying they're gonna be Prime 2010 Wade and Bron breh.


And Bron is not showing any signs of slowing down, he's in that Jordan mold where he will be the best player in the league until he retires.

It's not about that, it's about how effective they'll be together. Their "legendary" chemistry isn't going to make up for their decline/age, Wade especially.

:gucci:

There's a reason why he basically only plays one side of the floor now. I don't wanna get into the semantics of who the best player is (that would be Durant), but unless LeBron retires tomorrow, he's not going to be the #1 player until he calls it quits. There are already players either ahead of him, or right on his level who're either in their primes and peaks or entering them.

I don't agree but to each his own.

only on the coli is signing wade for 2.3 mill
and signing rose for 2.1 mill considered absurd and atrocious

while these same posters are cheering for teams that are paying their 12thman scrub like 5 mill
:dwillhuh:

Who the fukk is saying this in this thread? More like the coli likes to take things out of context and exaggerate.

It's a waste of his talents too. They don't need 4 guys to handle the ball on that team. Their best guard defensively is gonna be JR :huhldup:. I just had this argument with my brother. He kept arguing that a soon to be 36 year old Wade would be able to play good enough defense and they could ask him to guard Klay as if he just camps in the corner all possession long. How are they supposed to compete with the warriors when nobody in their back court can play defense? Hopefully he at least has a productive season and stays healthy.
At least your brother isn't alone - there seems to be a lot of dudes on this board who believe something similar too. Folk really haven't been paying attention to how much Wade has declined.
