When Did Dwyane Wade Become So Hated?

[NumberSix]

It's odd to me. Out of nowhere it's like he's become the most hated guy from a particular fanbase. What's the deal? Is it because there's no argument with the guy you used to spend all your time hating? Is that why Wade is now the target for all your insecurity and irrational hatred? :confusedshrug:

[RRR3]

Don't you claim to be either a 76ers or a Nets fan? Something like that?

[TheBigVeto]

When he won that rigged ring back in 2006.

[tmacattack33]

I for one am p*ssed because this Miami team could be a historically great team if he actually started playing like a top 10 player.

He's been better in the playoffs, but that just gives you more reason to hate on him...he just coasts through the regular season.

[Micku]

After 2006 he became d-whistle. After big three got together, all of them have been hated.

Tho LeBron is the best player in the game, so even though ppl may dislike him, his game is acknowledged. Wade's game is hated because of he plays for fouls and ppl still have a bad taste in their mouths over the 2006 finals. And he isn't doing as well as LBJ, so it's a bit easy to bash on him. But ppl hate on all three. Bosh, LBJ, and Wade.

[Mr. Jabbar]

When he started bricking left and right.

[Mr. NBA]

He whines every play.

[AirTupac]

It's hard to like a guy who spends more time crawling on the floor than playing.

Hasn't he kinda earned that?

And, isn't staying as healthy as you possibly can for the post season just smart strategy?

[SevereUpInHere]

For me it started during the 2011 Finals really. I used to actually be a fan of his. He was my favourite player from that draft initially, but now I just think he's a c.unt

I never liked his game much. I never liked his personality much. I seriously dislike his ways with officiating. I don't hate him though, I just don't care.

[BlackVVaves]

Not saying it's deserving, but people have been "hating" Wade for a while now, at least on this board. Where have you been :confusedshrug:

I just don't like hid change in attitude since the "Big Three Era." Players flop, so whatever, but he does whine a whole lot which is annoying to see. But, like I said, whatever. I just don't really like the whole injection of mild arrogance in his personality since Bron and Bosh came to town. He was much more humble before, it seems the humility that came with being a perennial first round exit after that sole championship in 2006 has escaped him.

I personally don't hate him though. Great player, Top 4 SG of all time. Probably declining now, but I think people overreact game-to-game way too often. When he has a 30 point game we will hear "Wade is BACK," and when he scores 14 points there will be "Wade is DONE," threads everywhere.

It's two weeks into the season people. Calm the **** down.

[PyrrhusX]

He seemed like a much better person before the BIG 3 was formed in Miami. I think the main reason he is so hated now is mainly because of how talked up he is by heat fans (when they said he had no chance of going on decline this year) and because he whines so dam much.

[kennethgriffin]

i hate wade because he literally threw away his career to becomes lebrons side kick

who bends over backwards and lets a ringless bum come to your team and take it right out of your hands. then turn you from an mvp candidate 1st team all nba player into a washed up 3rd team all nba 20ppg ( if lucky ) scrub of epic proportions with nothing to show for it except a ring that everyone will just say lebron won on his own anyway because he cant stay healthy anymore since not having to work hard anymore means more time to sit on the couch like a lazy sack of sh*t and eat burgers and milkshakes which never seem to go anywhere except his tits and his jaw instead of giving him any protein needed to work out or even run.

I don't think the last two are significant really, just a player offering his opinion. The insensitivity, arrogance, and immaturity he displayed in the first two comments though are precise reflections of what I was referring to in my earlier post. He would have never made those type of comments pre-2010. Not sure what changed in him.

He started off like Dwight Howard, who himself is another humongous asshole. You are right though, Wade would never have made these comments pre 2009-2010. He didn't feel safe enough to show his true colors when he was younger. He was still an asshole, however.

Dwade has been one of my favorites in the league since his rookie season. Young dwade = one of the nba's sickest athletes with all of those crazy layups and drives. He gets a lot of hate now because he has been struggling and because of his membership in the heatles club

[bdreason]

When people started calling him D-Whistle.

[Collie]

Mainly, I think it's the D-Whistle stereotype. And there's something about his personality, can't put my hand on it. Kobe's arrogant, but there's also something endearing about him in some ways. Same with MJ, who you couldn't NOT like if you watched him play. Wade just seems a bit... unmemorable. Magnify that with the fact that EVERYBODY hates Miami, then well...

[Meticode]

When I think of Wade, this image always comes to mind and will forever unless something overtakes it.

http://www.imgnook.com/Dq8ojo.gif

[Kellogs4toniee]

Coming from a guy who used to view him as a favorite player, I dislike him now because he complains and whines about every-thing. Phantom calls, phantom-no-calls.

At home court he stares down the ref before he rushes back to defense, often leading to the Heat having to fight 4 on 5 against running opponents. AND i'm talking about the vast MAJORITY of plays. Calls that don't go his way, shots that go in but he didnt get the and 1. Every super star does this, but it just seems like he does it the most.

Also when it comes to other super stars, at least with Kobe, it appears as if Kobe gives it his all even if he complains to a ref. Wade often times just seems so non-chalant after a no-call, as if he's so pissed that he just doesnt want to try the next possession. It's hard to describe, but I think many others who dislike him will agree.

His play has also been very in-consistent the last few years, frustratingly so especially as a fantasy owner. I understand injuries play a part and etc, but he just rubs me the wrong way now.

That's my reasoning. I don't hate him. I don't like using that word too much, especially on people who are simply doing work just to entertain us. I just dislike him. Hope that explains a little.

P.S : Also that one year where he had a sticker of his name on his glasses during the all star weekend. Sorry if I barf.

Wade's signature move is to jump into the defender and chuck it at the ring!(Something i read)

NO HATE THOUGH

Wade is definitely a top 25 player (All time) and a top 5 SG but his inability to develop his midrange above par is a bit disappointing (for want of a better word) and his reliance on drawing fouls is abit too much recently (as in last 2 years)

[Rubio2Gasol]

When his status became more about him getting superstar calls than him actually being better than everyone else.

So 2006.

When he went from being humble to being an arrogant jacka$$

[Blue&Orange]

It takes a douchebag to not know another douchebag i guess.

[elementally morale]

When he went from being humble to being an arrogant jacka$$

He was humble in the same sense Dwight Howard was funny. He was 'said to be' humble. Shaq started to build this whole 'humble kid' image. We know he didn't mean it, it was a direct (and rightful) bash at Kobe. The media picked up the humble image just as they tried to create the funny image for Dwight. Both guys failed miserably. Howard trying to be funny is downright awkward.

The same thing as it was with these guys' devoted christianity. A child here and there, a divorce here and there, some hoes along the way, etc. I guess it's 'normal' considering they are athletes and not priests or even role models, but the point is, the personality behind the image built just wasn't there.

[PJR]

Wade isn't hated that much. Not much more than any other player.

There's a large contingent of Bryant stans and Laker fanatics on ISH, and they have hated him since he won the the title with Shaq.

[pegasus]

I never liked his game much. I never liked his personality much. I seriously dislike his ways with officiating. I don't hate him though, I just don't care.
You are a better man than me. I hate him for all the reasons you mentioned.

[MavsPoke]

When the NBA gave the Heat a free championship in the '06 Finals.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_NBA_Finals
[I]Dwyane Wade shot 25 free throws --- as many free throws as all the Mavericks combined (a fact that did not sit well with Mavericks head coach Avery Johnson[5] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_NBA_Finals#cite_note-4)), leading the Heat to their third straight win over Dallas after being down 0

[MavsPoke]

http://i.imgur.com/HuR88.gif

The most pathetic thing I have ever seen. Can't believe he had the audacity to pull that stunt.

I can believe it. He won a championship in '06 with stunts like that. Hell, his whole career is built on the support of the refs.

[jt21]

Agree with what others are saying. I've never liked him because it seemed that he plays with the purpose of drawing fouls more so than actually getting good shots and scoring. Heavy use of offensive flopping, initiating contact and taking advantage of refs.

Of course a ton of other players also have that mentality that they'd rather use a pump fake to flop and get to the line than use it to get past the defender and get a good shot. It looks better on the box score and in efficiency ratings like PER if they have high FTA. And it's not like Wade does it every play, but I think that moniker 'D-Whistle' exists for a reason.

[Bandito]

When he went from being humble to being an arrogant jacka$$
Oh the irony...:lol

[Jolokia]

I believe it's because his effort isn't 100% there. He's always looking for that bailout call or a shortcut that would make his life a lot easier. So to sum it up, his life is bigger than basketball which basketball fans simply do not want to see.

I am a fan of his not because I am blinded by what he has become post-Lebron, but because his game is what resembles mine the most and because he hates losing. He's an incredibly smart player with an athletic base that allows him to do absolutely anything when he wants to. Even though his effort is what we call cruising, when it comes down to the very end, he gives 1000% with all the loose balls, defensive blocks, steals, offensive rebounds, and big and exciting plays like draining threes one after another that aren't even suppose to fall for him. He's one of the calmest players I've ever seen in the 4th quarter. The way he carries himself, you can tell he's a true leader which Lebron really benefited from the past two years.

But all that takeover mode or whatever is minimal now since his team is suppose to and will win the majority of their games by near double digits. His role has been reduced and a once super mega alpha star is now just a star...if healthy.

- yeah...that was one of the worst moments in basketball history.

- How many times have I defended our sport....when the uncordinated football bums would call basketball a P***Y sport.....I was there to tell them " Basketball players have to take alot of contact without pads"

- When Isiah played on a broken ankle.....I beemed with Pride......and When MJ played while turning green with the Flu...I was there to say.." I told you so........look at the heart of a basketball player"

- But all was for not....as Wade bumped his shoulder......cried and was taken away on a wheel chair.......why?

[guy]

He probably whines more to the refs then any player in history. Thats why, and its increased immensely over the past year or 2. He's not the only player to attack the rim as much as he does. Players like Jordan, AI, Lebron, Rose all have done the same thing and they don't bitch at the refs nearly as much.

By the way, I hate Kobe even more, but its a joke to think Wade is as good as Kobe career-wise or that he ever will be at this point. Its also to joke to say Wade has definitely been better then Kobe over the last year. Maybe he is, but he definitely doesn't show it on a consistent basis.

[Rondo]

The Heat are in the spotlight now since LeBron went to them so more people have started to see how big a cheat Wade is.

[Eat Like A Bosh]

I used to like Wade, but lately he's just been a jackass. Since Post Decision. It's been really hard to like this guy.

Let's see,

Makes fun of Dirk for being sick in the 2011 Finals
Throwing Mike Bibby's shoe
Saying I won't play in the Olympics cause they don't pay, and that Olympic players should be paid
Breaking Kobe's nose in a fricking All Star Game
Dislocating Rondo's Elbow

In my opinion:

Throwing bibby's shoe was hilarious and the olympics comment was on point. Athletes should be paid for their efforts. Everyone else is. I swear people just want the very elite to keep making money and have everyone else broke.

[Glide2keva]

When he won a ring before lebon and Melo.

[outbreak]

When he started flopping and playing only for the foul. Also really annoys people when he doesn't even get back on d after not getting a flop called because he's busy arguing with the ref. Seriously If someone on my team was doing that every time a foul wasn't called on them i'd be calling them out and hating on them myself even if it was our best player. Really makes you look like a dick when you won't even run back on d. Some of my friends (my girlfriend included) used to like Wade but since the last couple of years they all hate his whiny ass too now. Nothing to do with Kobe, nothing to do with him getting a ring. All it has to do with is how he acts these days and the crap he pulls.

[ihoopallday]

Don't hate him. Why would I hate someone I've never even met. However, I dislike his constant flopping and whining on the court. He's a great player, so those flopping antics are useless. But even LeBron flops, so I guess we have to get used to it. It's really sad how much flopping has become a part of the game. And this whole new NBA flopping fines isn't going to change nothing. Say a player flops with 2 seconds left in a finals game and gets free throws. Wins the game. What's a fine going to do after the game is over. :confusedshrug:

[Derka]

I don't hate him. You have to actually know a person to physically hate them, I think.

However, I don't care for the way he plays the game at all. Don't like his attitude, don't like the cheap shots he throws, don't like the way he incessantly cries for whistles and acts like a spoiled brat. A guy with his skills, diminishing though they may be at this stage in his career (he's not going to have Lebron's longevity...not by a long shot), shouldn't need to resort to Busch League tactics like he so often does when his shot isn't falling.

And one more thing...when he misses a layup and then lollygags at halfcourt instead of getting back on defense, looking to cherry-pick an easy bucket on an outlet pass...drives me crazy. I'd bench his ass for that if I were his coach.

Nah homie, what you're doing is called diverting attention to something else. I ain't even a Lakers/Kobe fan, and I still dislike Wade for the reasons mentioned in the previous pages.

And vice versa, right ?

Not really.

Did you see me make a giant list of reasons against Wade?

I could do the same for Kobe.

[Segatti]

I don't like him because

1) He is such a flopper
2) He loves to talk shit about other player (just see the fever thing about Dirk in the finals).

This isn't a thread called "When did Kobe Bryant become so hated" ... make the thread, homie.

Don't fire shots in a thread where we aren't even discussing the dude.

Have at it, kiddo

Dayum. Ramon flopped, but that was still intentional.

[miller-time]

He plays too much for calls, it is frustrating to see a guy with his ability flopping and making forced shots or poor drives just to get a whistle.

[no pun intended]

"naturally cool"

[red1]

Its not so much hate as it is a lack of ability to appreciate greatness. These are the same people who can't appreciate the finer things in life such as good food, good drink and good company. Such souls deserve pity.

- 2006 D-Whistle Finals made him resented (even if it wasn't his fault)

When I started being gradually more and more annoyed, anything before this and he was a hell of a player and a good kid:

- 2007 Shoulder Injury / Wheelchair Dramatization
- 2010 Leading hometown Bulls on when he was spying for the Heat (no plans on ever leaving)
- 2010 Visible change in demeanor to be more douchey akin to LeBron
- 2010 Being apart of the newly formed super BIG THREE
- 2011 The Dirk Cough Incident
- 2011 Finals Begging for Calls
- 2012 Begging for Calls
- 2012 ASG getting heated and SMACKING Kobe Bryant cause he was getting embarrassed

- 2011 and 2012 Thinking he's stylish but trying way too hard and wearing gay outfits.
- 2011 and 2012 Style of play completely changing from hard nosed aggressive player who got calls DUE to his style ... to being a player who strictly plays FOR THE WHISTLE

spot on, I use to be a big fan of his when he was more humble.....totally lost all respect with the Dirk cough incident...

More people started to dislike him when the big 3 formed. People hated the big 3 in total, but Wade wasn't as humble as he used to be. People were already upset over the 06 Finals, but you didn't see it brought up all the time. Although I think his image has looked better after staying in Miami. I don't see as much Wade hatred as I did a couple of months ago.
