2013-2014 NBA Thread - IND @ WAS and OKC @ LAC on ESPN

this is why brought bron to mia to be his ***** during the reg season

That statement-Politically correct statement + statement to confuse the public.

Whats really going on-He and everyone else is 100% aware that this is all for the purpose of saving Wade for the playoffs.

If D Wade is sitting out because of "soreness" and nothing more, that is structurally everything is fine, then Wade should retire. Very serious.

The NBA season is a long one. Everyone is "sore." This is why I think that "General soreness" is BS, especially if his knee is structurally fine. How the hell how you going to sit out all these games because of soreness. You're a professional, do your job man. If you're knee is this bad to the point where you can't do your job on a day to day basis, then it's time to think about hanging it up. You're just taking money now.

Like I said, everyone is sore. It's an 82 game season. That's not even a remotely good excuse to essentially take games off against lesser teams and wait until the playoffs while the franchise player is out here every single game busting his *** to keep the team afloat. If D Wade's knee is this "sore" now to the point where he is being forced to miss games, how in the world does anyone have any confidence that when the playoffs come he'll be able to play every game? And even if he does, there's no way he can be "that" effective anyway if he's this bad now.

But is it going to be enough...my question is what makes Heat not think he's gonna be sore in the playoffs what are you going to do then?

 

[abubakr shaheed]

Is it true that Lebron took a shot at Wade?

So does Wade decide if hes playing or not? The heat medical staff has no say in it?

lebron will take a shot at anybody

to me the real question is what will wade do about his contract. i think he'd be foolish to opt out

Wade will decide whether or not he wants to opt out of the final two years of his contract. He's on the books for just shy of $42 million combined in 2014-2015 and 2015-2016

he said he would retire if lebron left

meaning that if lebron leaves he would opt out of 42 mil over 2 years

meaning that if he wont play basketball for 42 mil over 2 years he REALLY REALLY doesnt want to play anymore

Good point. I've thought from the beginning of the season that they were going to lose to the Pacers and unless there is a huge change to this roster, my opinion cant be changed.

dudes knees have to be serious. the thing about rest and injuries...its a finite period of time after rest that you are at 100%. just like tiredness. when you're tired, you can sleep and sleep and sleep and when you finally get up, feel super rested. but as soon as you stay up late for a night or two, boom, you're exhausted again, regardless of how much sleep you accrued. same with resting soreness and injuries. dude can literally played 50 games this year and feel 100% come gm 1 of the playoffs, but as soon as he pounds those knees on a few dunks and slashes, he'll feel the exact same way he does now. rest is not gonna regrow cartilage nor repair lost tendons. dude is literally like BRoy right now. I really like Dwade, not Dirtbag wade, but good ol flash. I hate dude is struggling like this. that's the nature of the game though. i dont think he could've played any different.









i will say though, roids kills the tendons, ligaments and joints.

I agree with you. But especially this season, you have to qualify everything with " barring injury."

All of this. This is my point.

i know wade and lebron are boyfriends ..but walking away from 40 mil sounds a bit extreme even for a wealthy guy like him

where did he say that he would retire?

 

[datznasty]

The Pelicans are redesigning the head on Pierre the Pelican too look scary, aiming to have it done by All Star Weekend

 

[uncharteddrake]

lol..
I can't believe you guys can't see what Lebron Wade and Pat Riley are doing.
All they are doing is resting wade till the play offs, but obviously they don't want to make it seem like they are, so they want to make it seem as if wade is hurt and in bad shape, so that the nba and everyone can have a reason to why Wade isn't playing..
Its exactly the stunt they pulled last year when they wanted to get Spo and the Spurs back for not playing their starters in the 1st reg season game last year. the 2nd time the heat played them, they made up stuff about Lebron being hurt, and wade being hurt.

The Heat organization know what they are doing. Rest Wade as much as they can during the regular season, so that he is fresh and doesn't have a lot of miles on him by the play offs.

Till this day some people still think that Lebron Wade and Bosh signing to the heat wasn't planned for years......smh come on now.
Riley knows what he's doing.

but resting wade at the expense of lebron is kinda silly. granted lebron has been indestructible but eventually the mileage will catch up to him from these last 4 seasons

riley has done nothing special. he got lucky that wade and lebron are best friends and they wanted to play together. lebron controls that entire situation

 

[calibeebee]

Robin Lopez now has more double-doubles this season (16) than the rest of his career combined (15).

[T0INE]

whatever happened to japanair? too much monta this season?

He's still in euphoria from Dirk and Dwyane Nowitski being on the same team now.

Seriously though, he mentioned he was busy with school and that's why he hardly posts now.

 

[nooera]

C's have more draft picks over the next two years than the Knicks/Nets have combined over the next five

And assets to trade

What choice do they have? Rest wade for the play offs, or have him tired by the time he gets there?

And lets be serious....Without Riley Wade and bron wouldn't be on the same team. he constructs what goes on and how the money is spent.

 

[do work son]

isn't the fact that they have to rest dwade at this point of his career a problem of it's own? whether they injuries are real or not, it's pretty unfair to lebron to have him carry the team to rest wade. where's lebrons rest?

 

[black migo]

The heat rather not have a 15 ppg wade come playoff time

lol that's not how rest works papi

 

[Peep Game]

Maybe Riley is just planning to do an even flip of Wade for Stephenson
