Maybe he should start reading RealGM and see how his own "fanbase" disrespects him instead.

I've never wanted to punch someone in the face so badly. Really hoping to run into him at a game one day. I won't hesitate.

the last few years they seem to spend all their time creating bull narratives and then trying to establish them for the casual fans. it's all hype, over the top, fake, attention seeking BS.

The kraken is about to be unleashed. We as Heat fans know that if there is one word Wade does not kid about, it is motivation...

I dont agree wit none of that stuff. RT @linasoto36: @mchalmers15 do you agree with Dwyane Wade being number 8 on the ESPN countdown?
OtW wrote:ESPN in full blown Wade disrespect mode. LMAOOOOOOOOO #8? That's a **** joke. THere is no way the gap is that big between Kobe and Dwyane, where Kobe is two spots ahead. As Heat fans, we know where we stand on the issue of who is better. At worst, I'd put Wade and Kobe interchangeable at the 5/6th spots of the top 10. Wade had a season below our expectations as well as his expectations, But, he was still pretty darn efficient. I also do not think that Rose has broken into the top 5 yet. He broke into the top 10 with his MVP season no doubt, but I just can't see how he is better than Wade at this point. He didn't play a full season last season due to injuries and will not be ready to go for much of this season due to the unfortunate ACL tear. There is no way we can measure that.
Unfortunately, we know that Wade will never get the credit he deserves (as seen by the votes in MVP/All NBA Teams/Defensive teams over the past few seasons). An OT, but necessary, even bigger question reqarding the rankings is how in the hell is Blake **** Griffin ahead of Bosh and Pau Gasol? Did Blake lead a team yet like Bosh did in TOR, or made a difference on a championship team like Gasol did? Has he even learned how to play D and gotten a mid range game yet?
and LMAO at KLove being a top 10 player. We have to see how he does on this TWolves team that is more than capable of making the play offs this season.
Whatever, Wade will have a great season this year with better off ball play, a wet mid-range jumper, and ring #3.
Spoelstra predicts Wade will reclaim some of his quickness after knee surgery:
"I think because of this summer you’ll see a great bit of that athleticism come back. ... He's a warrior ... winning player … You're going to see the cat quickness again."
