NBA: Is Dwayne Wade quietly the best BBall player in the NBA?

it's WOWSERS time when you look at his numbers.

26.7 ppg, 6.4 rpg and 6.6 apg.

amazing. it's not Big O amazing but it definitely deserves notice.

I dunno, Iverson has

33.5 ppg, 3.5 rpg and 7.4 apg

Both are pretty good players. 😉

no doubt and kobe ranks up there too, the only reason he doesn't have more assists is because some of his teammates suck and odom won't take the mantle of being a go to guy. 🙁

How is it quiet? He is talked about all the time.

i don't hear about him nearly as much as i did about kobe or vince carter.

mb people have just given up looking for the next MJ.
 
Here's my quiet but deadly list:

Marcus Camby:
17.1 ppg
13.2 rpg
1.4 Asst pg
1.6 steals pg
3.2 blk pg
51.6 FG%
74.5 FT%

-------------------

Elton Brand:
25.0 PPG
10.7 rpg
2.5 apg
2.5 blk pg
53.5 FG%
75.5 FT%

----------------

Paul Pierce

26.0 ppg
8.1 rpg
4.3 apg
1.4 stl pg
48.4 FG%
39.7 Three point %
81.2 FT%



There's three guys you don't see plastered on your TV like you do with Shaq/Kobe/Lebron/Garnett/Wade
 
u cant beat kobe! he hit 62 points in 3 qtrs! you try that!

Elton Brand for MVP!!!
Channing Frye for ROY!!!
 
Tim Duncan's not exactly the loudest player in the NBA.

Besides, I think most experts would agree he's the best playing the game.
 
I still think Garnett is the best all around player, but he does get a good amount of TV time, so I guess that's not "quiet". Shawn Marion is a great player too, you don't hear about him as much.

To be fair, most of the NBA players carry, travel, etc.
I wish they would enforce the rules of the game instead of letting get away with street ball moves.

I'm getting sick of the hop-step then another hop into the lane moves :roll:
 
the crazy thing is that Wade rarely shoots the three. unlike guys like Tmac, Kobe, and Lebron. one annoying thing i read about him was that he was complaining about not getting calls, or something like that......uh, earth to Wade, you're second in the NBA in FT attempts.

other than that, he seems like a humble guy. too bad he's on Miami or i could root for him. i agree that Wade is a media darling and there's nothing quiet about his success. i think his jersey is the #1 seller right now, IIRC

When you take 30, 40, or even 50 shots per game it shouldn't be that hard. He is averaging 26.2 shots per game right now (most in the league), and has had nights where he took over 40. The only guy with a lower fg % in the top ten scorers is Gilbert Arenas.

Dwyane Wade FTW.
 
Def top 5, possibly top 3 imho. I think King James edges him out a tad though, as much as I hate to give in to the hype.

i know Kobe shoots a lot, but don't downplay his 62 points in 3 quarters...that was an amazing feat and he shot a fantastic FG percentage: 18-31, 58%
