That might have beena different injury but he definitely was gimpy and had to leave the court after the play I described.
Stop trying to backpeddle...you didn't know what you were talking about and just spouted off like you always do...Wade got hurt taking a shot with nobody around him....he did a cross over and pulled a rib muscle. It had nothing to do with the charge he took.
he's everything that's bad about basketball, he plays streetball not basketball and he's a punk off the court.
He hasn't played "streetball" since his days in Sacramento....Hubie Brown even called him the "best game manager" he has had. You are living in the past...and once again...you are spouting off about something that you have no clue about. The guy doesn't play "streetball"...and by saying that...you prove that you haven't seen him play in 4 years.
You said Heat in 5 then gave a 2nd prediction this way you had 2 chances to be right.
NO...I dug up the thread and showed the prediction....it said "Heat in six"....I am not going to continue to bump an unneccassary thread just because you can't read.
I didn't want to see him hurt but he was barely getting touched and they kept putting him at the line. The officiating was a complete joke that series.
I agree...the officiating was a complete joke.....they let Detroit set about 30 illegal screens in each game.
How many of those series did they win? All I know is he wasn't great against Det last year in the playoffs, he ahd a couple of real good games but wasn't great throughout and he got beat up by Det and couldn't finish.
That's interesting since he only score 40 against Det ONCE in the playoffs last year. The REAL #s are he averaged 22 points a agame against Det on a pathetic 36% shooting.
In '04 vs. Indian he shot a much more respectable 49% from the field but still only averaged 21 PPG, a far cry from 40. You must be talking about meaningless reg season games. Ok in the reg season against Detroit Wade & Miami have gone 1-6 the last 2 years and against Indiana they have gone 1-6 for a total of 2-12 in addition to losing to Indiana in '04 and detroit in '05 in the playoffs- yeah Wade & Miami have dominated Ind & det
Listen nyjunc....if you are going to start making up numbers, I will cease to respond to your posts. He averaged 25.2 points per game on 44% shooting in the Detroit series and that is with him being shut down in game 1 and playing 27 minutes in game 5 while missing the whole 4th quarter...and not to mention....playing hurt in game 7. He didn't play in game 6. Detroit did nothing to have him be hurt....nobody "beat him up"...He got hurt putting a cross over on Hamilton and then while elevating to take a WIDE open shot...he pulled a rib muscle. As for his rookie year.....he averaged 16 points a game in the regular season and averaged 21 a game in the Indiana series...he played great against them.....
Back to the Detroit series....Wade dominated in that series.....he got shut down in ONE game....put up 40 and 36 in consecutive wins....then scored 28 with a big 4th quarter to make a run in game 4......he got hurt in game 5 in a winning cause while having another big game with 16 points going to the 4th quarter (a quarter that he averaged 11 points a game in the playoffs)...Game 6...He did not play.....Game 7 he played hurt and carried the Heat to the lead after being down by double digits for most of the game.
The guy has played two seasons and is a freakin legend....not like that choker ......Vince.
