So Wade truly was LeBron's security blanket?

[DMV2]

Once Wade's injuries caught up to him, Bran abandoned the ship.

Now he's stuck on a team with a bunch of underachievers and empty stat stuffers.

Yes, Cleveland right now has an underachiever and empty stat stuffer. And then there are Kevin Love and Kyrin Irving.

Shameless copy you poor ****

[GrapeApe]

I think a lot of people (perhaps including LeBron) underrate Wade's basketball intelligence in terms of being one of his greatest attributes. Part of that comes with experience and part of it is innate. Kyrie isn't close to Wade in either regard. LeBron is faced with the challenge of showing him what it takes to win. The questin will be, how much is Kyrie willing to learn and what sacrifices will he make to help the team achieve their goals.

why do ya'll like to pinpoint one individual as the solution? Clearly what Cleveland are going through is a team issue and will be solved as soon as they start playing as a team. Wade has nothing to do with this.

Actually, he does. Even in his "diminished" post-prime state last year, Wade shot 55 percent next to LeBron, and LeBron, in turn, shot 57 percent next to Wade. Neither of them will ever see those numbers again. The effect of having two players on the same unit that command so much defensive attention individually yet are so naturally efficient is almost impossible to quantify.

People say Bosh is "leading" the Heat (for now, because Wade had one bad game), but Wade is the one being swarmed with defenders.

absolutely, but whatever is going on in cleveland has nothing to do with Wade.

LeBron is even in Cleveland again because Wade was injured, played poorly and lost in the 2014 Finals. He quit on his friend, and battle tested teammate.

or, his family wanted to return home when the opportunity presented itself.
