The Official Dwayne Wade <<<<<< you thread

They're fast and young without a marquee player that can drop 20-25 a night consistently

They play good enough defence, usually, and they run. I don't find it problematic for this stage of their progression

Because everytime I hear someone from the Lakers talk all they ever talk about is transition and easy baskets off the rebound lol.

How about you focus on improving your half court offence? You can't rely on transition like that.

Training camp was defense only this year. It helped so much. Hopefully this break can help implement something. They don’t play until Monday.

I expect plays our offense to improve a lot by All Star break.

Transition is luckily all effort. But no team can live on that only. Miami had a deadly P&R game also in their time.

I find it problematic for anyone tbh, relying on transition like that is moronic for any team.

Not to mention it's stunting the growth of their young point guard.

He definitely wanted to be there

Yes because the road team on a back to back is the same as the home team on a back to back

brah pls.

If this doesn't prove the MVP is solely narrative related nothing will.

AD not in the top 15

Embiid in the top 5 but no mention of Simmons whose been arguably more important so far.

The whole list in general

Only thing that is acceptable is Lebron, Curry and Harden tbh.

DeRozan @ 8, legit list

Kyrie at 2

Absolutely unreal

I think D. Rose is on the brink of retirement

He's stepped away from the Cavs and he's evaluating his NBA future

Hard not to feel bad for the guy, but I would just play until my legs give out and then buy bionic ones with all that beautiful NBA money

He's always been a really emotion driven guy, i think he'd forget the money if it's really hurting him that badly.

Bagley is a god damn beast. Just tied the Duke freshman scoring record. I have to think he's the no. 1 pick at this point. There's too many questions about Doncic's athleticism, though he's one of the most refined offensive players in a long time.

If only we had another pick this year. Hopefully we can trade for a pick. Clarkson, Randle, Brook Lopez are all available I'd guess.

Better than Porter? i know he's injured so it's hard but still.

Much better from the little I’ve seen. Dmize probably knows more. But Bagley looks like a game changer.

He’s also a year younger than most freshmen because he reclassified

It was just banter. It's sad to see players go out like that. Brandon Roy, D. Rose now, really promising players like Oden who couldn't even get up and running

With that being said, he's missed some time this season already but it was an ankle problem I believe, nothing like a torn ACL/MCL, just the nagging annoying time of injury but I can't speak for his mentality. I tore my ACL once and that was enough for me

SOMEONE HIRES this guy lol

Can someone clone Rondo pls.

Our play has been amazing since he started getting big minutes.

Its been si bad that you posted twice, I see

FFS

I didn't realise i posted it twice.

Thats how bad it’s been

Considering we are winning by nearly 30 no

In other news the Raptors lost again

We only blew a ten point lead in the third tonight so I’m much more calm

Feels good man

You guys seeing these DeAndre Jordan for Tristan Thompson rumours? Just so he can be closer to Khloe Kardashian. What a terrible career move, not that Tristan would have much of a career without LeBron

Hyped for game against Golden State tonight, we've played really well recently and only a game out of the 3 seed and beating Golden State, OKC and Spurs in the same week would be amazing for me.

But then reality hits when i realise we'll probably lose
