I've noticed that quite a few people never really watched D Wade play before LeBron went to Miami. Trust me, the big 3 version of Wade was nothing compared to how he he was in his prime.
Wade's ability to step aside and let another guy come into be the "man" is every bit as impressive as he was during his first title run imo cause honestly he was still in his prime and could've carried a team by himself with another all star like Bosh but Miami didn't have Jack Shit in 09-10 the fact the Heat didn't get swept by the Celtics in the playoffs shows how good Wade was! That Heat team was absolutely horrible and Lebum would've been swept with that 09-10 Heat team by the Celtics! Wade literally had 4 guys that wouldn't have started for probably 24 teams in the NBA with Mario Chalmers, Quenton Richardson, Micheal Beasley and Udonis Haslem smh none of which was even a starter in the NBA for more then 7 seasons in the NBA and none of which averaged more then 12 ppg in their career! Career points, rebounds and assist averaged for those guys was Chalmers 8.9 ppg-2.5 rpg- 3.7 apg, Quentin Richardson averaged 10.3 ppg- 4.3 rpg- 1.4 apg, Micheal Beasley 12.4 ppg-4.7 rpg- 1.3 apg and Haslem 7.5 ppg-6.6 rpg- 0.8 apg lmfao Wade averaged 33.2 ppg, 5.6 rpg, 6.8 apg, 1.6 spg and 1.6 bpg on 54.6% FG and 40.5% 3pt shooting! That just insane that he put up 33.2 ppg on 54.6% FG and 40.5% 3pt shooting while literally being the only threat at all! Boston Veltucs literally only had one guy to defend they could've quadruple teamed Wade and no one else would've scored 20 freaking points rofmfao Lebum only put up 26.8 ppg on 44.7% FG and 26.9% 3pt shooting while having Antwan Jamison, Mo Williams, Anthony Parker, Shaq, Big Z and Anderson Varejo! Cleveland had 3 guys that was in the top 12 in the NBA for 3pt percentage while also having Shaq although old had per 36 averages if 18.5 points, 10.3 rebounds, 2.3 assist and 1.8 blocks with a PER of 17.9 still 😳 you combine Shaq with Big z and Varejo you have a pretty dam good center rotation! Jamison averaged 18.5 ppg and 7.5 rpg over a 16 year career and had 10 seasons in where he averaged 18 points and 7 rebounds game! LeBron would've not only been swept by the Cetics if he switch teams with Wade that season but he would've lost by an average of 10 to 15 points too! Wade is so dam underrated it blows my mind! Was underrated before Lebon and even more so while playing with LeBron!

But the whole Kobe vs Lebron thing made people overlook the true rivalry between Kobe and Wade.
‘08-09 D-Wade was the best Michael Jordan imitation I’ve ever seen. He was the Redeem Team’s scoring leader coming off the bench. The fearlessness, explosiveness, hops, OMG moments: check. Even the late Kobe Bryant said guarding Wade was “like a bat out of hell that nobody can catch.”
Take out the best imitation part. Being too nostalgic believing that. Kobe was literally almost an exact copy. Plus only 1 inch & 1 championship apart. D wade is 2 & 3.
Wade: “I’m not a thinker, I like to react.” So different from other greats but the greats always made a way for their game to work at the highest level. 💪🏼
? Literally every basketball player ever plays the game off reactions. You react to what the defense is giving you. Thinking happens before and after the game or timeouts. But once the game starts its purely almost reactionary when the ball is live.
First time I heard of D -Wade was at a basketball college camp. The head coach son use to be around Wade and he told me, you look like Dwayne Wade and play like him also. My response was who the hell is Dwayne Wade? I looked him up at Marquette and I said, ain’t no way in hell I play like Dwayne Wade lol I’m more Travis Diener than Wade. 😂 From then on he was my favorite player after watching him in college.
Listening to D wade make u understand dat even da superstars are real fans of all nba players dey watch everybody and don’t forget any lineup.. he mentioned Luke ridnour and Rasheed Lewis on dat Seattle team dat was like 15 years ago literally LOL.. can’t wait til Bron start doing these podcasts
D-Wade’s right to left crossover was super deadly. I remember watching games where he would hit that crossover and the defender would be completely out of the picture.
13:25 this holds true to this day i havent seen anyone i the league euro dunk windmill crossover dunk and spin dunk consistently.. cuz specially on euro u cant muster enough bounce of the 1-2 euro cuz u just planted your leg deep but wade still did that till 2016 in ny arena

This probably my favorite interview. DWade one of my favorites. He underrated in my book. But its clear to se that Gil is underrated too... Listening to him tlk and how GREAT players talk about him says everything to me.
I feel like gil was hitting the money on that take about lebron, i feel like everytime lebron wins he experiments with something new because he already won with what he had. like, by winning he says "i mastered it" and goes to something new. lebron is definitely next level. he is by all means, the most complete basketball player i have ever seen and it's because that's what he's looking for, complete mastery of the game. The crazy thing is we haven't even seen true coach lebron yet...
Mastery of everything but his handle and moves. Still has 1980 moves. The creativity they spoke of is what Bron never mastered. That is the lone reason he still gets so much hate. His off court creativity is the reason he is the greatest as that is what truly matters.
I can not explain how much I love when Gil talks about the glove. I hope one day we get to hear from him on how Payton was still his nemesis to the end or even wade on how a lot of people were trying to light up the glove on his way out. And then Gil saying Larry is too little for wade and being surprised he's dunking off spins was so funny lmao
Arenas is definitely right about seeing Wade in person. I was lucky enough to see DWade live in his prime. The explosion didn’t seem real, almost like he was teleporting.
Dwade...much respect Flash! My favorite NBA player. The one time Agent Zero earned my respect...it was few seconds left in the game. Scores tied. Agent Zero had the ball. Wizards needed just one point to win the game. Guess what: Agent Zero hit from down town and won the game by three points. Imagine what people were saying and thinking while the ball was in flight. The level of confidence and moxie Agent Zero displayed on that shot was unbelievable and damn right insane.
You know what's weird my favorite players r players fans wouldn't really pick except maybe curry Curry Reggie Miller Ron artest Kevin Garnett Dennis rodman
wade is the best motivator hands down. that dude been motivating me since he took lil ass marquette (barely d1) to the final four. and its now a storied program. i will never forget deaner and wade. i wonder if they talk.
Love how Wade coached Gil here and loved Gil’s receptivity more. Wade was a little long-winded, basically reapply your approach to your desire--but first know your desire. Gil was saying the same thing, but familiarity (with the game) can be deceptive. Mamba cheat code unlocked.
Damn...D Wade gave Gil the best question of any guest Ive seen... Then he turned it into something else a coachable moment for Gil... Basically saying Gil already has everything that he needs to succeed. After you do it once what do you do now??? You do it again....
Wade amazed at how he was still able to score even when he lost a step and athleticism declined. And him and Ginobili introduced us all to the eurostep.
@@dame5918 1995 boss. And she came on in the early 2000s. Same as wade. Wade referenced this in terms of being on non sports magazine covers. I'm sure it didn't hurt to have a successful and respected actress as a wife to help make that happen.
To whom it may concern. It was a pleasure and an honor. To listen to Legends of the game of basketball. And talkin about life itself outside of basketball. Two men who have accomplished so much. Inside of the game of the basketball and outside of the game a basketball with family and friends and business. When I listen to the conversation Wendy Wade ask Gilbert. What is your goal in life to be. And he said a coach with kids. When I think about it I believe he has always been that a coach. I say that once he really understood the game of basketball. Then he was able to teach along the way in life. Because I believe your teachings and what you learn and life. All your testimonies to share with other people. That is your energy people gather around for who you are and for what you stand for. So I say to you Gilbert keep on teaching. But never stop learning because once you stop that you died. And life is about learning and sharing and loving people. And also when I listen to the conversation and you said you were not about please when you were playing basketball it was about. You going to the basket scoring everybody else stand back. But no disrespect but you sound just Allen Iverson. When you look at some of his games he was a person about scoring. Taking all the responsibility of being that person being that guy. No matter good or bad. He took all the smoke. So I say to you continue continue to teach. Keep the Kobe Spirit Alive that's what he was all about. Like D-Wade said. What Kobe experience on the basketball court. Now he's putting it towards life. He may not be with us him and his daughter. But his spirit is legacy and what he stood for will still go on the test of time. Thank you good health is good wealth God is everything always remember that
I love this.. man watching wade play.. I feel the same way as Gilbert lol.. he is so underrated.. his offensive ability and feel for the game was unreal.. at 6'4
S/O D Wade for puttin Gil on the hot seat about getting his butt on the sidelines to push him to start coaching. A basketball mind like his can NOT go to waste!!!
No harden is not even top 5. Yeah hes a top 3 OFFENSIVE sg but not sg as a whole. Basketball has offense AND defense. Damn casuals forget about defense. Mj, wade, even kobe were all great defenders in their prime
@@ryu-ken I guess will see what he do for Brooklyn Nets then 🤔. If tem boys make the Nba Finals u can't tell him nothing. And his defense isn't that bad. It actually improve from last season so 🤷🏿♂️
People who says Harden or AI is better than Wade clearly only watches players score. Wade was one of the best defenders in the league in his prime period. This is the guy who is listed at 6"3 but would block your favorite centers anytime he wanted to while giving your team 35-40 pieces at the same time. People really forgot Wade was a walking bucket back then and still an elite defender at the same time. The season that he should have won MVP, dude put up 30ppg (scoring title), 7 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 1.7 blocks... 1.7 fucking blocks for a 6"3 guard and he played 79 games that year. And i have not seen a guard at 6"3 doing a spin move outside the paint area to split between defenders then follow up with with a 2 hands dunk on a center. This dude was insanely athletic.

Dwade...much respect Flash! My favorite NBA player.
The one time Agent Zero earned my respect...it was few seconds left in the game. Scores tied. Agent Zero had the ball. Wizards needed just one point to win the game. Guess what: Agent Zero hit from down town and won the game by three points. Imagine what people were saying and thinking while the ball was in flight. The level of confidence and moxie Agent Zero displayed on that shot was unbelievable and damn right insane.
DWade had the best crossover I've ever seen.
"The man above said imma give you everything but a hairline" what a trade off 🤣🤣🤣🤣☠💀⚰☠💀☠
BRUH!!!
I'd rock the baldy.
I’d definitely take that ... 😂😂😂
I'll take it
I was weak 😩😭
It was something Jordan like about wade. Lived in Miami when he was playing. He was unreal. Magic
Agent 0 is one of my favorite players ever, but I see a lot of y'all don't know flash
Wdym by that?
After that "18 and 3" line, Gil was NOT letting the other dude talk anymore 😂😂😂
You know what's weird my favorite players r players fans wouldn't really pick except maybe curry
Curry
Reggie Miller
Ron artest
Kevin Garnett
Dennis rodman
“Most kids are trash” - D Wade 😂😂
Time stamp?
@@ifheavenwashuman 42:19
One of the most uncomfortable TRUTHS ever spoken!!
@@tairugardrie6453 facts
wade is the best motivator hands down. that dude been motivating me since he took lil ass marquette (barely d1) to the final four. and its now a storied program. i will never forget deaner and wade. i wonder if they talk.
My Favorite Player Ever.. D Wade.. 🐐
Mines too bro
Love how Wade coached Gil here and loved Gil’s receptivity more. Wade was a little long-winded, basically reapply your approach to your desire--but first know your desire. Gil was saying the same thing, but familiarity (with the game) can be deceptive. Mamba cheat code unlocked.
"Imma give you everything BUT a hairline"
Loved this episode. These two ran the Eastern Conference in the 2000’s
Man DWade is the most down to Earth superstar I've ever seen in my life.
Enjoyed this Episode! Shoutout to DWade for attending & being the 3rd All-Time Best SG #100thEpisode
Damn...D Wade gave Gil the best question of any guest Ive seen...
Then he turned it into something else a coachable moment for Gil...
Basically saying Gil already has everything that he needs to succeed.
After you do it once what do you do now???
You do it again....
Really liked this episode. Woulda never expected some of the things I learned about Gilbert Arenas. Good hearted guy 👍🏾
Wade amazed at how he was still able to score even when he lost a step and athleticism declined. And him and Ginobili introduced us all to the eurostep.
11:35 was my reaction to him & d rose doing that growing up, “this brother is on x games mode!”
Dwayne wade was explosive off one and two feet. Crazy athlete with a bag of moves.
I thoroughly enjoyed this. Two of my favorite players and personalities in ball ever.
27:09 I think only DWade can getaway with that punchline on LeBron. LOL
If kuzma said that his ass woulda been sent to Washington
@@alexescutia4805 bro this shit is crazy that kuzma is in Washington now 🤣🤣🤣
Two of my favorite players joining up together having a great time discussing the game shouts out to these scoring amazing individuals
Wade gave them like 42 that night its the first nba game I ever went to gill the 🐐
Almost at the end great watch yo, I like how Wade was giving game to Gil about applying his coaching thats super dope! Nba geniuses!
Okay I’m crying finding out Gil helped Wade’s daughter, wtf
that part was beautiful
Whew. Lot of heart with these guys.
宏耀許 🥴🥴
60 year old man sniffing back the tears, too
Really tho Real tears 😭
My fav guard Dwade and one of my fav underrated Gil. Great interview
Want to see tmac on here
Fr
This was by far the best episode yet. Love the content.
How this podcast doesn't get more traction is beyond me
I liked how Wade matured not just as a player but man as well. Arenas would definitely be still mentioned as one of the greats had he done the same.
Dwade: I know the right people.
Translation: My wife is Gabrielle Union
I mean he’s Dwayne wade too
He wasn’t with her back then
Lol wat ??? Wade was known before gabby... clearly a young person making this comment...
@@dame5918 1995 boss. And she came on in the early 2000s. Same as wade. Wade referenced this in terms of being on non sports magazine covers. I'm sure it didn't hurt to have a successful and respected actress as a wife to help make that happen.
Man DWade just commands the room when he’s in it. Great episode from my all time favorite player 👏🏾
"The man above said ima give you everything but a hairline" - wade to LBJ
😂😂
42:30 wow that was the nicest thing I've seen!!!!
To whom it may concern. It was a pleasure and an honor. To listen to Legends of the game of basketball. And talkin about life itself outside of basketball. Two men who have accomplished so much. Inside of the game of the basketball and outside of the game a basketball with family and friends and business. When I listen to the conversation Wendy Wade ask Gilbert. What is your goal in life to be. And he said a coach with kids. When I think about it I believe he has always been that a coach. I say that once he really understood the game of basketball. Then he was able to teach along the way in life. Because I believe your teachings and what you learn and life. All your testimonies to share with other people. That is your energy people gather around for who you are and for what you stand for. So I say to you Gilbert keep on teaching. But never stop learning because once you stop that you died. And life is about learning and sharing and loving people. And also when I listen to the conversation and you said you were not about please when you were playing basketball it was about. You going to the basket scoring everybody else stand back. But no disrespect but you sound just Allen Iverson. When you look at some of his games he was a person about scoring. Taking all the responsibility of being that person being that guy. No matter good or bad. He took all the smoke. So I say to you continue continue to teach. Keep the Kobe Spirit Alive that's what he was all about. Like D-Wade said. What Kobe experience on the basketball court. Now he's putting it towards life. He may not be with us him and his daughter. But his spirit is legacy and what he stood for will still go on the test of time. Thank you good health is good wealth God is everything always remember that
Amen.
I love this.. man watching wade play.. I feel the same way as Gilbert lol.. he is so underrated.. his offensive ability and feel for the game was unreal.. at 6'4
That's average NBA height stop acting like he's small
@@rasulsamad889 really....
Speaking of The Glove, we need him with Gil on this show!
S/O D Wade for puttin Gil on the hot seat about getting his butt on the sidelines to push him to start coaching. A basketball mind like his can NOT go to waste!!!
3rd best Shooting Guard ever. Unless there is some kid out there in development as we speak... MJ, Kobe DWade. (🐐,🐍,⚡️) will stay intact
I would put James Harden up there aswell. RESPECTFULLY!!! 👌🏿
@@DrDizfuntion harden is top 5 but not solidified like the big 3. Rings change things
No harden is not even top 5. Yeah hes a top 3 OFFENSIVE sg but not sg as a whole. Basketball has offense AND defense. Damn casuals forget about defense. Mj, wade, even kobe were all great defenders in their prime
@@ryu-ken I guess will see what he do for Brooklyn Nets then 🤔. If tem boys make the Nba Finals u can't tell him nothing. And his defense isn't that bad. It actually improve from last season so 🤷🏿♂️
That's like saying his defense went from brown shit to green shit. It's still shit.
Classic episode Congratulations on 100 shows!!
You know the media 😂😂
People who says Harden or AI is better than Wade clearly only watches players score. Wade was one of the best defenders in the league in his prime period. This is the guy who is listed at 6"3 but would block your favorite centers anytime he wanted to while giving your team 35-40 pieces at the same time. People really forgot Wade was a walking bucket back then and still an elite defender at the same time. The season that he should have won MVP, dude put up 30ppg (scoring title), 7 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 1.7 blocks... 1.7 fucking blocks for a 6"3 guard and he played 79 games that year. And i have not seen a guard at 6"3 doing a spin move outside the paint area to split between defenders then follow up with with a 2 hands dunk on a center. This dude was insanely athletic.
11:20 had me dead😂😂
what's great with Gil is he gives us stories of his shortcomings and what he lacks just the same amount of what he is good at #AgentZero
Two Killas in their own right here to bad Gil's career was cut so short
Gil such a real one with zaya
Wade would have been mean as a running back, all that speed, size, and the way he cuts people off in him prime, sheezz
Or special teams
Never would have lasted LOL. He's 6'4! One year and knees smashed to pulp.
Too damn tall. That’s exactly how my hs coach fucked my knees up putting me back there at 6’3.
That’s Eddie George Derrick Henry kind of size
Giving an early thumbs up! Always bringing dope guests! Keep it up guys!
"WHUT? HE DUNKIN'ON SPINS TOO??!!!" deserves a Movie Scene.. xDDDDDD
Great episode... Agent Zero is one of the best story tellers ever... No Chill Mr. Hibachi... congrats on the 100 episode...👏🏾
Sending good vibes out to anyone who sees this!
You need to clip the end of the convo where Wade talks about work ethic
I still say Olympic Wade (summer 2008 through the 2008-2009 season) was the best player in the world. Better than Lebron and Kobe that stretch
When D Wade came in the NBA he showed the whole league he was here too stay and posturized who ever got in his way and he did Holla at cha boy peace
