What is your problem this thread should be stickied. If the mods really felt that there was nothing original to add to this thread and that it was just a rehash of the same material over and over again than it would have been locked by now.
And by the way I was right about Blount and you were wrong about him. I told you he was hall of fame material. He scored 23 points against the Spurs who have excellent defense and he would have easily scored 50 points if Wade hadn't been so selfish trying to keep the ball away from Blount. Blount should be made the first option on offense, since he is the player who can carry the Heat. Wade is nothing but a role player.

Here's the difference.
1) Wade didn't force his way off of a team because he wanted to be "the man". He co-existed with Odom and then Shaq, while T-Mac left Toronto because he refused to co-exist with Carter.
2) Wade's already accomplished far more than T-Mac, and T-Mac has far more years in this league. T-Mac draws flack not because he missed the playoffs with Orlando, but because he's never been able to get out of the first round.
3) T-Mac's supporting cast is damn good. He's playing with one of the best centers in the league, a great glue guy at small forward, and he still can't get out of the first round. When Wade had a good supporting cast, he's actually done stuff with it, getting to the second round with Brian Grant as his starting center.
4) Wade hasn't actually missed the playoffs yet.

and for the record, yao is a great player but he is no shaq or duncan. especially speaking in terms of impact on both ends of the floor. he's nowhere near either of them in that sense.

shaq is shaq

Shaq is playing extremely poorly, just watch him play objectively and tell me that he's doing something down low that 15 other big men couldn't do better since after the 06 season.
