We have a shitty team but man I love Wade. He is far from done.

42 points on 19 shots for Wade tonight.

The roster is awful. They need Bosh to be successful. Bosh is more important than Wade because our big men are so shitty that we don't have another big man who can even give us 10 PPG with no Bosh. When Wade is out Chalmers can step into the starting role and at least score 13-15 PPG.

As I said on the Heat board if you take Wade out of the conversation, Utah active roster tonight is head and shoulders better than Miami. The roster is complete shit outside of Wade & Bosh.

Deng is a bad fit for Miami. I would've spent extra money to go after Ariza or Parsons....both would be better fits.

Deng needs to be in a offensive system like the Spurs to be good consistently

Yes he can.

60 points total in the last 2 games which came on a B2B set.

Wade is fine. Once his knees are healthy (which they finally seem to be) he still one of the better offensive players in the league

He has scored at least 28 points in 3 of his last 4 games. Oh, and he was averaging 21.4ppg before the game tonight, that'll probably go up to 22.5ppg. Proving he can do it on a nightly basis.

Yeah Deng just isn't what he once was. Bulls got rid of him at the right time. Now like you said he needs the right fit....a team that is talented on offensive and just looking for that extra piece.

I like that he stayed loyal with the Heat but this is why I wish he went home to a team like the Bulls. I don't want to watch the stud on a trainwreck as he gets into his mid 30s.

I'd have to think about it but at this point in their careers.....I'd probably take a healthy Wade over a healthy Kobe.

I'm not saying it is something to go crazy about. But he has missed 30% of the games this season. He played 2 weeks (with a crazy 3 back to backs in just over a week) then sat two weeks and now has been back two weeks. Maybe it is just a random injury, but with his history it may be wise to monitor his time.

That really means nothing - Kobe missed 76 games or so last year and is still playing ball this year just as he always had. Just saying.

Jason Kidd had injuries and came back and helped to win a title in Dallas after his injuries - Just saying

Wade is the more efficient player and has much better shot selection....Kobe would look much better on a better team.

Kobe would also look better if he would pass the damn ball more instead of trying to do all. The problem is that he will never finish the season if Scott doesn't slow him down and quit playing him so many minutes.

Christ, I am not knocking the guy. He is still putting up the numbers but he likely wont keep this pace up all season but maybe I am wrong? Still, he is banged up and I don't think its fair to expect him to play like this for 6 more months. He is playing better than expected right now that's for sure. I personally hope he keeps it up but I wouldn't put money on him to continue this pace all season.

How is he banged up?

Wade is not some bum. Unless he injures his knee again, it is fair to expect him to avg 21-22 PPG all year long.

Injuries are destroying this team.

The last time we played a home game with both Wade & Bosh in the lineup was on November 12th

Those knees he has had problems with? Yeah, those wont work 100% ever again and aging doesn't help. He is playing well right now but I wouldn't be surprised if his numbers drop as the season moves along based strictly on his health. If he can stay healthy, he obviously can continue with these numbers.
