Maybe im over-rating Bosh but outside of MJ/Kobe, whose better all-time than Wade?

MJ - Kobe - West - Clyde - Gervin off the top of my head....AI if you wanna count him as a SG. Wade probably ends up top 10-15 but he's not top 3.
 
Well, Lebron being as selfish as he is actually set up shots for his teammates, but they couldn't connect. (see MVP-Bosh)

Wade was pretty ridiculous when we was in his prime. Hard to compare players to different eras but Wade compares favorably to most SG's in history.

Not knocking Wade, he's great....but MJ - Kobe - West are 3 of the top 10 players of all time, he's not top 3.

I could get on board with that. Wish I saw West play. I read all the time that he was the perfect basketball player.

He put up Bron numbers, obviously not as big and athletic but his numbers are stupid. Highly suggest hitting up youtube and watching his highlights.
 
Brule, thoughts on RW's performance last night? Obviously its the 76ers but the second fastest triple double of all time is pretty impressive right?
 
Of course, but it's the 76ers who are tanking, have 2 good players and the worst defensive team in the NBA. trip-dub in 20 minutes is stupid but the 76ers lost by 40 in back to back games and gave up like 300 combined points.

Yeah, last night was pretty easy.

Do you believe that RW though is morphing into a true PG? Yes, he will always get his points but he looks to pass more than ever.

I just hope you keep an open mind because RW is a fantastic player and if he continues to do what he is doing this year and stays healthy then he is better than CP3 (IMO of course)

He's NEVER going to be a true PG, which isn't a bad thing....IMO, it's a bad thing for OKC and KD but if RW is on a different team then I have no problem with it. I've always said I'd take him in a heartbeat if I was the Knicks, I wanted the Knicks to draft him.

He will always be more AI than CP3.....can that game win with another alpha-male in KD? I have my doubts.

Its a fair assessment. I just wish you would watch OKC play more and see all the easy buckets that RW gets KD. Instead of having to create everything himself KD gets layups and catch and shoot opportunities. They are starting to roll out a PnR between the two of them that is becoming lethal. Just keep a look out for that. I really believe that RW will average 10+ assists per game for the rest of the year (depending on minutes restrictions of course).

You think this is the first time Lebron has ever felt tired?

He specifically mentioned it after the game. That to me is a direct correlation of playing unecessary minutes the night before. You can think what you want but Lebron was tired from the night before.

So, if you really believe so (even though you didn't watch the game), what does the regular season loss to the Rockets mean?
