Will Wade's 08-09 remind us of Jordan's 95-96?

Good for you... but you need to win more than one championship to use the word rings.

If Riley makes the right moves i think Wade will be able to stay relatively healthy.....

Wade's never had a real PG...hes pretty much had Alston, Damon Jones, Jason Williams who resorted to spot up and shoot 3s. Despite being listed as SG, Wade has been the PG of this team save for 1 season when Wade played off the ball. Hes had to be the leading scorer and distributer on the team.

Weve never had a legit 3rd option who could create his own shot..Eddie Jones needed to be set up , same with Antoine ... and with Shaqs foul troubles and injury problems that was more Wade had to do.

I think with Beasley thatll take away a lot of pressure from Wade...hopefully we add a PG like Hinrich, thats less pressure on Wade as ball handler..having Ricky Davis and Beasley .. 2 guys that can create their own shot.

If the Heat draft Beasley and retain Marion, I think the Heat could challenge the turnaround the Celtics just made.

Average player if he played in the 90s. So comparing Wade to Jordan isn't really fair (to Wade). Find a player like Billups to compare with Wade. Leading/clutching etc.

I just threw up in my mouth a little, happens everytime I hear Wade being compared to Jordan.

Wade should concentrate on his career with those T-Mobile commercials, this guy is so injury prone.

BOOK THAT!

What are Pacers fans, Alex?

We know what bad bball is, that's why we had the worst attendance in the league. :rofl:

Don't be mad, tell Wade to watch a couple of better basketball DVDS. Dribbling and shooting preferred.

No man, I think Wade's doing just fine on his own, thanks. In fact, I think he's done better than any Pacer, ever.
