What versions of Wade would you take over current Steph Curry?

[greatest-ever]

Discuss?

[Mr.Kite]

The one where the league wanted him to get the ring

[dubeta]

Hmmm, probably 2009 and 2010


Can't see any other years tbh

[RightTwoCensor]

All of them.

[Jud]

The Dwyane Wade from 2005-2011

You can't be serious

2005-2006 Wade was hands down better than Curry. Not even close.

06? Great regular season then dominant title run?

But i mean to be fair we probably need to see how the season pans out first, if Warriors flame out in the 1st round he may not be better than any prime version.

[Suguru101]

2005-2006, 2009-11.

The 2007-2008 are only missing because of injuries; Wade all across his prime was a better player than Curry at the peak of his powers, which he is in right now.

[Budadiiii]

All of them.

Wade's impact on the game, even when injured, is bigger than Curry's.

Wade is probably the most underrated player on here. He's responsible for getting LeBron a ring, which is maybe the biggest credit to his name. LeBron choked year after year after year until Wade was able to lead him to a ring.

Or do you mean the one where he dominated the whole playoffs averaging 28 6 6 on 50% fg. And that wasn't even his best season.

You're probably a dumbass who didn't watch Wade in his prime.

[Papaya Petee]

04-05 (better # than Curry, great playoff run)
05-06
06-07 (until shoulder injury)
08-09
09-10
10-11
11-12 (23/5/5 run with a ring)

2012 Wade is not better than 2015 Curry.. no way.

2005-2011 Wade is, though.

He absolutely is. You are out of your damn mind. :facepalm

defense? all-around game? leadership? BIG games in the playoffs?

[SouBeachTalents]

'05, '06, '09, '10, '11

[T_L_P]

05-11 Wade, minus the injury year.

[SamuraiSWISH]

Hmmm ...

2005
2006
2007 (pre shoulder)
2009
2010
2011

Steph Curry has no argument over the ones in bold. Not even a conversation. A case can be made for 2012 Wade as well.

[IncarceratedBob]

Imagine how great Wade would have been if he hadn't been lazy and developed a jumper.

All of them, except rookie year, and the last 2 seasons.

Wade is arguably a top 25 player in NBA history, respect greatness.

This.

exactly

Wade may have padded his 22 points, but he was a liability from 3, and killed floor spreading, causing a wall of defenders to surround LeBron

He also slipped on defense, and had single digit scoring games Vs Indiana in the playoffs, and was mediocre in the finals outside of Game 4

How'd he do in Games 4-6 against Indy?

And since when are Finals games like these mediocre?
24/6/5 on 50%
25/7/7 on 36%
20/8/3 on 58%

[Nash]

oh how fast people forget.

wade all day from 2006-2011

who you calling a kid son? Is defense a stat nowadays? Wade is a very good man2man and he took paul george when he was giving lebron the business. he made westbrook and harden his bitches in '12. He came up with big games in '13.

How is TS% just stats? Wade is attacking the rim, putting people in foul trouble and changing the course of the game.

I'm by no means a wade fan (dude is scum imo), but i'd take wade 05-12 with my eyes closed over curry. Curry is a weak light skin boy while wade manned up for some rough series during those years and came up BIG when it mattered.And peak wade is up there with jordan and kobe so curry isn't even in the ballpark.

Imo 13-14 wade and peak curry have very similar impact. Put current wade on the warriors and they'd be at about the same record.

I was agreeing with you ... and calling dubeta a kid.

When healthy, from '05-'12. I don't know why Wade's '12 season is so underrated. He aquiesced his role but he was still a top 5 player in the game. As a first option he was still a 27/6/5 type player and was still a very good defender. His '13 regular season was great as well and he averaged 24/6/5 on 55% during the win streak. The bone bruise injury that year was the turning point, and he hasn't been a consistent superstar since.

Before his injury in 2013, I'd agree. Better defender than Curry ever has been. 2012, and 2013 regular season have arguments. He was simply a higher caliber of player than Curry ever will be.

[Cold soul]

Wade seasons 05-'12 when honestly Wade much greater player than Curry ever will ever dream of being Wade the superior player in almost every way possible.

[upside24]

God I miss watching Wade when he was a beast.

[Jacks3]

06. 09-11. That's it.

lol @ 2012 Wade.

[Lebron23]

Prime Wade is a better player than Curry.
