Is Wade the 3rd best shooting guard of all time?

[I.R.Beast]

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar`s 1975-76 MVP says hi. His team went 40-42.

Hmmm....how many years ago.....That will NEVER happen again, you and I both know that. The critieria for MVP has changed vastly. It's best player on Best team award(record wise).

[I.R.Beast]

I think they will both finish in the top 20, easily.

Here's the difference. Lebron has the chance to finish top 5. Wade doesn't.

...LMAo...why doesn't he?......you are a very delusional young man.

Season MVP is the highest individual honor a player can get. Every seasonal MVP has/will make the Hall of Fame. There are players who have won FMVP that will never make the HOF.

Wade is no Parker or Billups.

+1

There's a reason LeBron is considered a potential GOAT candidate and Wade is not.

Me being a longtime and a huuge fan of Wade..

I'd still say no.. his resume isn't in that level yet.. I hope it improves..

he's in the top 6 though.. with..

MJ, Kobe, Jerry West, Drexler, Ray Allen

I think WAde's been robbed of all-nba defense 2 time right? damn that Kobe

You people need to stop overrating this cat so much. He may have 2 or maybe 3 more years of decent production and then due to his lack of skill he will fall off completely. That's considering he doesn't miss any significant amount of time in that stretch due to injury which he most likely will. In 15 years he will be forgotten and thrown somewhere in the bottom half of the top 15 SGs all-time.

why when he has ALREADY achieved more than anybody not named Jordan, Kobe or West?

2-3 more years gives him 10 years as a 25 ppg/all nba player

Iverson > Wade

Wade without Shaq and Wade without Lebron, you pretty much have a career similar to Tracy McGrady.

Peak McGrady>Wade.

[hammer2010]

I take Jordan, Kobe, West, Drexler, Gervin, Havlicek, Iverson, McGrady over Wade.

Wade is vastly overrated by ESPN. Calling him Lebron's "batman" and "go-to-guy". It's amusing for the reason that dude has never been considered superior in the clutch (or as clutch) as Lebron or Kobe. All the data and advanced measures back this up. Just some hyperbole from a bullshit media outlet.

I feel like to an extent, though, for much of his career Wade has been a bit unfairly overshadowed by LBJ and Kobe. Sure, for most of his career one or both of them have been better players than him, but not by a lot really. He's one of the best perimeter players ever and should get more credit in a legit way, not just in a way that is aimed to be a thinly veiled insult to LeBron.
