I’m not trying to discount everything that DWAYNE WADE has been doing this season. Of all the players being considered for the Association’s MVP statue WADE is clearly playing with the least talent all around him. The Miami Heat are the current version of the Vancouver Grizzlies without WADE in the backcourt.
But is WADE the MVP?
Looking at the latest numbers you can make the argument. WADE recently capped off a tremendous week by becoming the Heat’s all-time leading scorer ahead of ALONZO MOURNING. He did that in a little over half of the games it required MOURNING. DWAYNE WADE is a consistent scorer, but not in the manner that you would want from your MVP’s. KOBE is the dagger scorer who knifes his opponents with 3-pointer and fade-aways so razor sharp that they cut the larynx of the the opposing fans. LeBRON JAMES is the hammer scorer who bullies the basket with thunderous dunks and muscleman jumpers.
DWAYNE WADE scores 50 points and you have to wonder when did he do it. WADE has the most inappropriate court nickname of all time – “Flash”. His work ethic and countenance on the court belie that moniker. If there ever were a lunch pail superstar in professional basketball then WADE is that guy. Those types of descriptions usually go to modestly skilled non-Black athletes, but WADE is supremely skilled and ridiculously humble. This is why WADE is one of the leading assist making two-guards. Do you remember the big deal the press made when KOBE first learned to give an assist? WADE definitely tries to keep his entire team engaged and alert.
DWAYNE WADE is also a tremendous defensive player. This shouldn’t be overlooked when deciding the MVP even though there is a separate award for defensive player of the year. KOBE might be a better individual defender, while I feel that KOBE is a better all around individual player, but as a team player and a team defender and someone who will answer the bell and do whatever his team needs him to do DWAYNE WADE is that dude.
The only reason I might not grant DWAYNE WADE the MVP award is because of those rumors of him dating STAR JONES right after she divorced AL REYNOLDS. That shit right there is more like M.V.PU~.
