Who wants to trade Wade(stand up and be accountable)?
No discussion. Just check in if you do. Put your name out there. So when Wade comes back and we win a title, you can be held accountable.
This trade Wade stuff has gone far enough. Let's set up some accountability for the insanity. If you can't come into this thread and put your name down, then you should stop saying trade Wade in the other threads.

Wade isnt going anywhere. Its just the media trying to stir a rift between Lebron and Wade. But they can try all they want these guys look like legitimate great friends.

Close the thread, noone is getting traded, why do people blow up this to such a idiotic proportions? Listen much to ESPN? ESPN lost credibility regarding HEAT since Big Three came together anyway.

Re: Who wants to trade Wade(stand up and be accountable)?
Maybe like 1% of Heat fans actually want Wade traded.
However, the real debate going on comes from the contingent of people who want to see some sort of hierarchy established, and are using LeBron's current dominance as proof that he should be alpha dog. As incredible a team as we are with the two together, the way that the LeBron-Wade dynamic is currently set up inevitably leads to them throwing each other off rhythm, which can sometimes lead to poor results.
I will stand up and admit to being part of this contingent of people.
And for the record, I love Wade. He became my favorite player in the league instantly after his rookie season game-winner against the Hornets. And he will forever remain my favorite player in the NBA.
But LeBron is just too f***ing good.

Re: Who wants to trade Wade(stand up and be accountable)?
So quickly do people forget how this team looked when both especially LeBron were going into the post in the first two games.Wade was able to play off LeBron in the post for cuts and vice versa,however they stopped going into the post more for whatever reason as the season went on and Wade got injured.
As we saw in today's game LeBron was really efficient in the post and needs to continue to stay aggressive when Wade comes back, I think Wade is smart enough and see how his team is playing without out to try and fit and possibly play even more off the ball when he returns.

Re: Who wants to trade Wade(stand up and be accountable)?
And as soon as LBJ or BOSH has a stretch of bad games, then they would wanted them traded to. The fact that this thread exists....never mind.

No I'm tired of the knee jerk heat fan insanity where very result is over scrutinized. and it's reached it's crescendo in this "maybe we should trade Wade" business. If you think that, honestly, you should stand up and say it, and then when Wade comes back and we're dominating teams, those people can be called out and held accountable.
People need to be held accountable for their garbage regarding the heat. We have to learn that one game, six games, hell twenty games--does not tell you everything about this team, and we need to take a longer view of things. Have more perspective.

This thread doesn't exist to CALL for Wade to get traded. If you actually read it. Is it that hard to read the original post that starts a thread?
This is a "idiots need to be held accountable" thread.

Only for Dwight Howard. But the Heat will win some championships regardless. I'm fine with a healthy Wade. Dwight would just extend that window for a few years.

Re: Who wants to trade Wade(stand up and be accountable)?
That depends. If the Heat go on a 3 team deal and get Dwight Howard, Blake Griffin and Chris Paul for Wade... lol
Seriously it's not about trading Wade. He's part of the untradeble superstars in the league, just like LBJ and Bosh (of course when somebody says they want to leave and are near expiring contract everyone becomes tradeble).
People just want Wade to not shoot as many bad shots as he has been doing in the 4th. Right now it seems like LBJ pick&roll with Bosh is the best play (more efficient one) so it should be the primary choice. And don't even start with the game winners cause on that, with 24 secs to play, I don't mind LBJ or Wade just clearing and making a play. And if they miss it's OK, only happens to the ones that try those shots.

Exactly.... Arison should replace Riley with Ireland too.

If Otis calls and offers Dwight - yes. Otherwise - no. I think thats rational, no?

Re: Who wants to trade Wade(stand up and be accountable)?
Lets trade wade for kwame brown and gerald henderson from the bobcats. Gives us some size and henderson is a great player, younger and better than wade. We should def do that........................................................................

I dont think anyone wants him traded thats a real heat fan, we do need a hierarchy established but that more a secondary problem. The biggest problem i see is Wade inability to shoot the 3 ball at a decent rate. When Wade and Lebron are on the court its almost disrespecting how teams just lag off Wade when hes behind the 3pt line and go clog up the paint. The paint gets clogged up and the team can no longer penetrate so easily or have a post game going. Conversely when Wade is attacking and penetrating teams still fear Lebron and his 3pt shot so they keep a man on him helping the spacing making Wade penetrate easier since there is more spacing. Really how hard is it for the coaching staff to say Wade we need you to become a better 3pt shooter? Wade with a decent 3pt shot becomes unguardable and helps save his body from some wear and tear. Then again Spo is the coach so

why? its simple, thats not his game, and will never be. When has wade ever been a legitimate 3 pt shooter other than maybe the 08-09 season. And even then, he wasnt a stand-still 3 pt shooter. You cant tell wade to stand there and jack up threes, we have other people to do that. Granted, this team does space the floor better w/o him due to his lack of 3 pt shooting. However, you cant tell the face of the franchise, future hall of famer to change his game to almost a 3pt specialist. Thats not going to work.
Did we all forget that the heat were 2 wins from the nba title last year? With wade....and lebron? It just amazes me how people just focus on WHATS GOING ON RIGHT NOW, wade and lebron cant work? hell it worked last year until lebron decided to check out. And lets remind everyone who played the best in that series? wade...not lebron, wade. So lets stop being stupid....and feeding this "theater of absurd" spo likes to call it, and stop SPECULATING ABOUT TRADING WADE....or making him into a 3pt shooter, not going to happen.

Re: Who wants to trade Wade(stand up and be accountable)?
Our spacing is better with Wade on the bench thanks to our 3 point specialists, but other than that a healthy Wade is better for this team 9/10 times, ----> ESPECIALLY ON THE DEFENSIVE END WHICH EVERYONE WANTS TO IGNORE FOR WHATEVER REASON. <----
Why people don't realize this is beyond me... I hope all of this BS talk reaches Wade and he starts playing out of his mind when he gets back to shut all of the doubters up.
