Mechanical flaw in Wade's jumper?

Except that Wade is still more consistent and efficient than Lebron.

Except we're only talking about shooting, and LeBron is by far a better shooter than Wade.

I was only talking about shooting. Lebron might be a better volume shooter (emphasis on might) but there isn't any clear disparity to say Wade is a worse shooter especially since Lebron isn't exactly a great shooter by any means.

It's a lot like with Jordan. Are there tons of better shooters than Jordan on paper? Sure. But when they need a shot, they hit it more times than they don't especially if it's wide open. Wade is similar. Part of that can be attributed to shot selection, part of that can be attributed to mental fortitude but teams can shut down guys like Lebron and Kobe where as Wade has shown he can rise up over teams like Boston to a point where you can't discount even his shooting.

Ummm, whatever way you want to spin it dude, but LeBron is a much more consistent shooter than Wade. The only year Wade put up a season even comparable to LeBron's this year in terms of shooting, was in '09 (and even then, it's not really comparable). I don't know where Wade's jump shot went after that season. This year, it's not even close. LeBron's shooting has improved far beyond where Wade's jumper is.

Wade has a mechanical flaw in his jumper?

I'll take it.

That's the jumpshot version of Shaq's freethrow.
