No it isn't. He's still a threat.

our backcourt is definitely packed. Would definitely have to stagger Wade & Dragic like almost exclusively. I could see Wade & Waiters being a solid playmaking duo in Spo's system, especially as a 2nd unit option where TJ can take Dions spot & 2nd unit would still be smooth.

Wonder if Wade sees himself as a 6th man.. because he is at this point.

Hard to see Wade not going to CLE tbh.

If Dion is a starter, Wade's not a 6th man. You can argue how he fits this specific situation all you want, you can't argue talent, even at 36.

I don't know if this is a good comparison but Iggy came off the bench for GSW even though he was definitely better than Harrison Barnes. It just depends on if Wade is willing to do that. Would Wade even start in CLE?

I think Dion will be a better player than Wade this season.

Glad we only have one game this season on TNT. Can't stand those haters (except Boshy, of course).

Also, why so much national tv love for the Wizard sleeves?

Because of PointGod John Wall. Fun player to watch, basically a more controlled Westbrook with 15% less explosiveness and purer as a PG.

I'm not impressed with players that beast in the regular season and lose their balls in the playoffs. Wiz losing to that trash, fraudulent #1 seed Celtics team soured me on Wall and Bradley Beal.

If Wade can't start ahead of J.R. Smith and Chumpert, then it's time for him to call it a career. lol

When Wade signs with the Cavaliers, I hope we don't make a thread about it. Wade in a Cavs jersey means we don't talk about him in these parts anymore.

Wade can play on any team he wants, he just can't play on any NBA team other than the Heat. Also, since the Heat don't have the roster space, he can't play for them either. Time to retire?

what“s the difference since he“s still a bull and you guys keep on bring him on like that girl who dumped you and you cant still move on....its amazing!

If Dion is a starter, Wade's not a 6th man. You can argue how he fits this specific situation all you want, you can't argue talent, even at 36.

What you rally cant argue is that he will be a liability for 50% of the time he is on the floor. At least with Dion on the floor you know your getting a very good defender, so he will impact the game 100% of the time.

[Bishop45]

Would love to see Wade back here or on a good team like Cavs, he's still got some game left in the tank. Would be willing to see him take Ellingtons minutes if he wanted to come off the bench
