To be fair Wade wasn't himself after injuries, so hopefully he uses the ranking as extra motivation. Although, who takes espn seriously anymore?

This is my problem though, it's fine to rank him out of the Top 5 based on recent play, but how do you rank Rose ahead of him then when Rose barely played last season?

ESPN can say whatever they want. I don't see why some of ya are getting super offended. All speculation till he plays.

#8 is disrespectful to Wade. If they're basing it off a potential decline, what about Kobe who's older? If they're basing it off the injuries of the previous season, why is Rose, who missed like half the season, ahead of him? Makes no sense.

Wade missed way too many games. When he's healthy, he's arguably the second best player in the NBA.
Thanks for all the great memories, LeBron! The show must go on! #Heatnation

Cause Rose is overrated while Wade is constantly disrespected. Rose will always be Wade lite. Nothing more nothing less.
