+mark calaro idk. 09 Wade without injuries looked as strong if not stronger than prime Kobe. Without injuries it would be a tie for 2. With injuries he's Number 3
I love that Wade is being doubted again, I've become so use to it that it doesn't seem right right when he is just being praised? It doesn't seem right that he almost hit a milli, that fans actually still have some love for him. We all overlook one of the goats of this game for talented but lesser players. We match him up to every other star and we all say he loses to them. I can't blame anyone for choosing another guard over him but my guy has played in 5 NBA championships! Wade is a big game player who has put on a show for many years, he deserves many things he was robbed for. Over and over he is robbed, at least give him the fan vote, show a legend respect. Wade didn't rob butler, butlers fan support just can't compare to a living legend of the game.
Yea he gets disrepected 24/7 Even when Wade got the allstar start on TNT All Ernie Johnson did was say negative things like this year is Wade has a career low this are the lowest numbers since his rookie year then Charles took a shot at Wade by saying he's slowing down when they brung up whiteside smh
And they say he didn't deserve, lol. Just like they said "he's old and washed out". Dude at age of 34, without knees and balling better than most of the youngsters. Stop bullshitting, and respect the 3rd best SG in the history of basketball.
Great? Naw chief! He's been playing okay, he's definitely on the decline. Smh! I don't think it was fair not to have butler start, wade has start in plenty of Allstar games.
You have a Wade who has come back from injuries and is playing like he was when he was in his 20s (which was good enough to secure him a spot in the HOF) and jimmy butler who has a good game every few but is a little inconsistent...butler is going to have so many all star appearances in his career so who cares? Wade deserves this spot.
I've been listening to Eric Reid and Tony Fiorentina for 17 years now and I still enjoy their commentary immensely, win or lose. There's a reason our franchise is always rated at the top of the league, and why the broadcast team alongside Jason Jackson win sports Emmys. They're a joy to watch and listen to. We have the most exciting fans, the best broadcasters, and a legend in Dwyane Wade. His silhouette will replace the great Jerry West one day. Well...maybe not. But he's definately 1st-ballot HOF'er.
These are *REAL* Top 10 plays, just about all of these could'be been the #1 play on any given night. That's why i love D-Wade. He always plays exciting. They also could've had the putback dunk over Knight from the same Suns game #1 was from. Also the reverse baseline dunk vs the Celtics.
Butler is DWades son, the guy has been studying DWade for years now. I'm glad he's balling this season but Wade is a legend! Wade almost hit a million votes and came in 5th in overall votes, why would people be arguing about Wade making it, shouldn't people be debating about butler and Lowry who gets voted in by bieber and drake fans?! Butler is nice but he's Dwade nice, I'd rather have the real thing. Wade is coasting right now but when he's ready he's unstoppable and his experience is second to none. Barkley is a long time Wade hater and the architect of his false demise, his word is powerful and he uses it to diminish Wade for too many years. It's a shame that such a humble guy never seems to get the true respect he deserves.
Wade still got it!He still have many amazing plays this season like his game winner against the Memphis i thought its his top 1 play. amazing top 10 plays list of wade tho
+Gabriel Nava I'm a Heat fan since 02, and as big a Wade fan as there is, but no way has he been having a better season than Butler. That kid is becoming something really special. I'd still take Wade because he shows up when you need him most in the playoffs, but Jimmy gets buckets man, and in bunches
Why is everybody talking about Butler? This is his first season where he starts to play good.. You can't just take him over Legend D. Wade now! Especially when Wade is in fine form. Butler will have his chance to prove that he deserves the starter spot.
Can't wait until the 28th where they preview the reserves. DeRozan's top 10 about to be lit af. Mark my words, better than any other top 10 for this year's allstar game (starters & reserves included)
this is what stephen a smith meant when he said he would never under estimate Dwade. people dont realise that wade has been hurt the last few seasons but hes up and running. hall of famer no matter what
Wade with Healthy knees would shyt on Butler. Easily. Everyone seems to forget how lethal Wade used to be. His knees were vital to his game and even though he re-established his game, he still balls
Coming back to this video after 5 years and dwade still deserved the starting spot. Beal had a great season in 2020 and still didn’t make the allstar team 😂
Does it even matter who starts? You people are acting like Butler isn't going to be an all-star. If you wanted him to start you should have voted for him. I still think Derozan has been better this year than Butler.
Lets see how many of these young starts like Butler, Thompson, Harden, DeRozan, etc do when they hit 34 in the next 8 years or so. Wade isn't doing bad at all considering his past health.
Yo wade is my favorite player ever, I only watch basketball because of that man, but that boy butler should start. Wade should be a reserve. As should Kobe.
+bballislife7158 Obviously he's not your favorite player, for the simple fact you're jumping on the bandwagon. Every year, they bring a different SG into this argument, and every year the name and jersey changes. But you know what doesn't? The man they're comparing. Which should basically tell you there is no comparison. MJ is the greatest SG in history, bar none. It's either Kobe or Wade next, then the great Jerry West. Then compare whomever you want to Wade, but 46 points in a half does NOT make you automatically greater than Wade. That ain't how basketball works itself out. Wade is a legend. Jimmy Butler is good.
+Tyrone Cunningham Im not gonna argue with your overly sensitive ass but even wade said butler should start in an interview with the starters. And if legacy is everything, then shaq shouldve started in the allstar game of 2011, when he averaged 9 points and 5 rebounds off the bench for the celtics
