We’re not the Boston Celtics. We’re not these kinds of teams that need to play together. We have guys that have the individual talent, and sometimes the individual talent, one-on-one ability is going to take over.

Is he aware that basketball is a team game?

He acts like all basketball is is one on one skills. Basketball is a TEAM game!!! The players that realize that are the ones who win titles. Every good scorer gets cold, contested jumpers can’t be relied on. I have been a fan of Wade since his time at Marquette but lately I’m starting to think he’s just as ignorant as his boy Lebron.

huhh

I’m litte stunned by Wade saying that.. maybe there is more as only something in his eyes?. its always a team effort with individual talents yes but they play defense as a team and thats for sure not an individual thing only… They still have to learn, they are not on the same page with Boston – thats the truth behind this statement (I guess a dizzy reaction of a bothering reporter question…)…. If one of their big 3s sitting out with an injurry – they struggle simple because they don’t know and trust each other enough (especially the role players have a difficult time because of Spoelstra switching their rotation to much!) – resulting in going one on one all the time.. Bad game at the end for them in NY – no system on plays, only one on ones and no time out call at the right time… They are not ready yet and won’t be this season
