D-Wade 2nd best SG in NBA??

Question

I have to admit myself, last year I didn't think DWade was as good as the previous years before especially when they won the championship, but after watching him in the Olympics, it looks like he is back to his old self again. He looks unbelievable. My question is do you think he is the 2nd best SG in the league? And please D-Wade lover, I like him too but don't say he's better than Kobe cause if you know bball than u know hes not. But if hes not 2nd best, than who is?

Answer 1

Wade seems to be more of a point guard than as a 2 given that he is dribbling the ball down the court half the time and setting up the offense.  And as a point guard, he is more like a Gilbert Arenas (minus three point shooting ability and a quirky blog) than a Jason Kidd obviously.

But in terms of comparing Wade to Kobe, I still think of Kobe as a more complete (and better) player because Wade doesn't have 3 point shooting skills and has compensated this weakness with his driving to the hoop which he's famous for anyway.  Kobe does have the 3 point shooting and the pull up ability that Wade lacks or at least doesn't have as much of.  Either way you look at it, Dwayne Wade MUST improve his perimeter offense because down the road when he gets old, he must be able to have the three to help compensate for diminished skill slashing to the hoop.

Answer 2

1.WADE

2.KOBE

And plus they might move KOBE 2 small forward.

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

Yep. Look for him to be an MVP candidate with pretty high honors.

Answer 5

yeah he made a great comeback soon he can the best sg he is getting better at threes

Answer 6

i think d wade is the best sg in the team... kobe is not contributing as he should he is playing like any practice game against angola while wade is playing like its the nba finals... kobe is better than wade but right now at the olympics, d-wade is the man for the us team...

Answer 7

yeah kobe is going downhill right now

GO HEAT

Answer 8

It's about the performance he put up in the NBA finals....Wade averaged over 33 points and that was one of the greatest perfromances in Finals history so u can't really compare Tony Parker to Wade

Answer 9

yeah !!

Answer 10

so i'll actually answer your question instead of comparing. even last season when miami (really pat riley) decided to tank it, wade tried to come back regardless. he had a bad injury plagued year, and lost many players to injuries and trades. to me even then he was still the 2nd best 2 guard in the league. he just didn't get to play enough or played while still not 100%. no player really plays at 100%, everyone has injuries, but i felt that he was around 65-70% when he did play... thats not counting where he was mentally. from being a champ team to chump team is gonna knock you back mentally. so yeah wade in the 2nd best 2 guard in the league. look out for miami this year in the leastern conference to sneak in at the 8th and 7th seed.

to the haters. kobe is the best shooting guard. and best player. deal with it.

Answer 11

Wade= 1 Finals MVP

Kobe= 0 Finals MVP

Id rather have Wade

Answer 12

2nd best, but not for long.

1st of all hes really good.

2nd, hes gonna pass kobe when kobe starts a decline in some years.
