Just come out already :scusthov:

he's married.


he doesn't need to come out of anything, he doesn't give a fukk what you or anyone else thinks and wears what he wants. the same attitude is represented in his play which is why he's become as great as he has.

Kyrie is fukking amazing right now. The moves he's putting on out there. :banderas:

It helped Wade more than you give credit for, hence why they signed Shaq and they won the fukking championship. When Shaq left, they didn't win until Lebron and Bosh came.
No it's not hence why they won a title you dumb fukk. Shaq didn't help Wade to get to the rim and put up points - Shaq helped the team (not Wade) by coming in and providing front scoring and being a second-option to Wade. Wade still got the rim and still put on points on the same efficiency WITHOUT Shaq. That's what Scalabrine's point centered around - he was wrong.

He said that the reason why Wade got to the rim over and over and over again, was because Shaq's man was busy guarding him and didn't want to leave him - as opposed to Zo being out there instead. That is WRONG - Wade averaged the same amount of free throws playing with Jermaine O'Neal and Joel Anthony.
You're just guessing, let's focus on what he actually said and what I actually said, stop creating shyt.
You're a remedial ass muhfukka. At no point did Scalabrine state that Shaq was the most important player on that team. Are you going to seriously suggest that he would claim that Shaq was more important than Wade despite the tape and ALL the statistical data saying otherwise?
Hey you stupid fakkit, I clearly said that you underestimated Shaq's impact. You're putting words in my mouth. Stop changing what I said to suit your weak ass argument that relies more on emotions and moving the goal posts than actually addressing what I said or the entirety of what Scal said.
The only one that's moving the goalposts is YOU. How am I underestimating Shaq's impact? He was the second option on that team and wasn't as important as Wade. That is a factual account of how that team was built.
Point out in my post above where I ever said Shaq was a better player or more important than Wade? Shaq isn't the one driving to the rim, but he's damn sure helping Wade do it and commanding double teams to the tune of winning a championship..
He didn't though, if he did help him out [driving to the rim] like you're insinuating, why did Wade average the same amount of free throws playing without Shaq?

This is a past statement of yours -
Well when the defensive focus is on Shaq it clears things up for Wade. He wouldn't score like that if Shaq wasn't there to take away so much attention.
This is a blatant LIE. He averaged the same amount of free throws in 2007, 2009 and 2010 without Shaq, he averaged his season-high in points - 30 ppg in 2009 WITHOUT Shaq. He averaged 27.4 ppg on 49% shooting in 2007 WITHOUT Shaq - a higher ppg than he did playing with Shaq in the years previous. He proved he could score like that without Shaq.

Can you explain to me how you came to this conclusion that Wade couldn't score like that without Shaq, when he actually scored more points on the same percentages without Shaq.
You went overboard and started adding a bunch of shyt because you didn't want to concede this point, even when I posted a video of an NBA player agreeing with me.

You have issues man, seriously.
The NBA player you cited was WRONG - the only one with issues is YOU. By providing the free throw attempt numbers and ppg averages that Wade had WITHOUT Shaq proves that he didn't need Shaq to drive to the rim and score points. Shaq helped by providing scoring because the Heat didn't have another solid 2nd option. He didn't help open the game up for Wade, anywhere near the degree to what you're insinuating. Wade was putting up those type of #s playing with Jermaine O'Neal and Joel Anthony. Are you going to start telling me that both of those players helped Wade drive to the rim and put up points?

You have not provided any statistical data to back up your opinion - just a few quotes from a previous NBA player, who you not only took out of context but who also was WRONG about Wade needing Shaq to score/drive to the rim.
