None Of Ya'll Experts Were Saying This Last Year, If Ya'll Basketball Opinions Are So On Point Why Didnt You See The Potential Greatness That Harden Is Or Could Be Better Then Wade?
How Come Nobody Said This During The Olympics?
I grew up in South Florida. I remember skinny ass Wade who had a jumper and before he became a diva.
I don't know what's going on with Wade but I think he's simply bored. The Heat in general are an easily unmotivated team. We have to compare situations here. We have 30 year old vet, two rings, finals mvp, whatever achievements you wanna name, he seems "satisfied" with what he's done. I don't think he honestly feels like there is anything left to prove to anyone.
He doesn't hustle back on defense, he bytches at refs rather than playing through no-calls, overall, he just doesn't seem to be the same person he used to be. It was like this the whole season up until the Pacers series last year before he got called out and snapped out of his weird act. Next game what happened? We saw vintage Wade. Edgy, finishing at the rim like he used to, making smart plays, not settling for jumpshots over longer defenders, he was his old self.
He just seems bored right now. I can't find any other way to explain it. If it isn't the Finals or Playoffs, I just don't think Wade is going to bring it every single night. The biggest question mark for Wade and the Heat as a team is this: Do they still give a fukk about winning a championship? I know for sure that Lebron does, but that Knicks game was a repeat of what we saw from them throughout last season. Just subpar effort and overall lackadaisical play.
Right now, Harden is definitely outperforming Wade in every facet. Right now as in November 4th, 2012. Does it mean Harden is the "better" player? No. However, is Harden outplaying him as of this moment? Without a doubt, and it isn't debatable, it isn't an argument, it's simply fact. Pure and simple.
