Ari Cohen I hate when people say stupid shit like this.. was he the only person you couldn’t hand check? Or was everyone under the same rule set?

[@TheRexrapper]

[@allthatjeff]

TheRexrapper They were discussing the Next 10 Greatest Players after the Original 50. Kenny Smith brings up Wade and Shaq says he would take Tracy Mcgrady and Penny Hardaway over Wade. He even says Gary Payton over Wade. Webber says Shaq got Wade that Title. Shaq laughs at what Webber says. Later in the show they bring up Wade again and Reggie says Wade earned the Title and he was averaging 35 and Shaq says "who was"? Reggie tells him that Wade got him his 4th and he single handedly won that Ring and Shaq sits there in silence. Reggie, Thomas, and Kenny say that Wade should be on the list and Shaq still says he takes Tracy and Penny over Wade. He kept insulting Wade by putting those 2 above him and even agrees with Webber saying that he got Wade that ring, all whole wearing the Ring Wade got him. This isn't the only insults he has done towards Wade. He called Wade Wonderboy in 2009 after they split. He then says "Wade was the other guy" in all of his Titles calling Wade the 2nd option. This last one was recent it was in May of this year.

[@TheRexrapper]

allthatjeff I see. Damn Shaq is coming off as a hater. Why would he say that about a guy who helped him get his fourth title? Shaq and Barkley saying things like that is the reason why Wade does not get the respect he deserves as a player.

[@ralph_naderrrr6736]

05 was an amazing run, Heat swept their first two series (Nets & Wizards if I recall correctly) and then met this equally amazing Pistons team. I think if Wade doesn't get injured at the end of game 5 we probably win this series which was no joke because the Pistons were tough! Ultimately this Heat team lacked quality depth and would suffer every time Wade or Shaq weren't on the floor. The addition of Alonzo Mourning helped greatly at the end of the year (in 05) but Riley did the right thing by trading for Posey, Williams, and Walker- also signing Gary Payton in the 05 offseason. That ultimately got us over the top and provided us with the depth needed to go deep in the playoffs. No doubt we also benefited from Larry Brown leaving the Pistons (to join the knicks no less LMAO). Those 04-06 Pistons teams man they were tough.

[@Loganbub]

Crazy to think these two teams met back to back years in the ECF with different coaches for both. In 05 the Pistons had the coaching advantage but that flipped in 06 with Riley vs Flip. Flip was a great offensive coach but his offenses stagnated in the playoffs and he wasn’t good at adjustments on top of him changing the Pistons defensive scheme ultimately made them less formidable in the playoffs

[@californiabear5395]

Don't forget this was the same Pistons team that had, embarrassed Shaq Kobe 3 peat team , 4-1 on way to championship. and this year it took spurs 7 games to beat them. And Wade pretty much by himself had them in their knees b4 getting hurt missing game 6 and playing hurt in game 7. From game one Wade only grew bigger with the moment perhaps faster than any other player ever. Please don't even put hardens in Kobe Wade pedigree. There was time Kobe couldn't beat Wade, Lebron couldn't beat Wade, even with Better teams. 12-2 record on Christmas Day games a lot of played against Kobe and Lebron. Nuthing to take away from lbj or Kobe they get their dues. Do you guys know there was 15 straight nba season which saw either atleast one out of Duncan, Kobe, or Wade in the NBA finals. None of the finals for 15 straight years were played without atleast one of these 3 players being in them. Most of them were against between two out of these 3.

watching this makes me feel that at that point wade was better than lebron 2nd year player and was breaking apart one of the best all around teams (specially defensive teams of the 2000-2010 decades). a team that collectively defended wade was just toying with them. never seen lebron handle that type of pressure, we should be really thinking was lebron even better than wade. wade willingly took a back seat to lebron when he came down to miami, but he wanted to lift lebron. if lebron could have played outside of the lebron james system d-wade could have been the main scoring option and the heat would have won 4 of 4 nba finals. but the lebron james system only won one definitive a second that should have been lost and loss to an underdog and got humiliated in another one. d-wade was touching mj levels i missed those days, but i will never forget.

On topic: The series against Detroit in 2006 ECF, and his performance against Dallas in 2006 finals and 2011 finals, are the three best playoffs performances since the 2000s in NBA, and all of them belong exclusively to Wade. Even the best Lebron series can't even touch any of those three legendary series.

[@SewerGang]

haha I was talking to a friend of mine about those dallas games and how wade pulled the heat from being down and winning it all in game 7... its ridiculous how much he performed

[@brandonthompson5957]

GianCarlo G Game 6 bro

[@meezy1000]

Oscar Féliz there are better performances than da 3 u jus named since the 2000s u trippin....

[@tdn3t]

[@swaelee5054]

GD could you do Russ Smith he's a nice player and he seems very underrated should have went higher in the draft he's NY favorite rookie

[@phil1980boy]

If I am the Det Pistons coach today. I put this film on and make Jaden Ivey watch D.Wade everyday! Everyday!! Then I go out and hire D.Wade to do private workouts with Ivey. I pray for the day Ivey adds a mid-range jump-shot.

[@kenyiraperez2766]

Wade was better than Lebron at first

[@ligidobastian9245]

05-09 Wade was 🔥🔥🔥. I'd say better than prime Bron

[@dreamchaser1419]

Stop it lol

[@ligidobastian9245]

@@dreamchaser1419 I'm stating facts here dawg.

[@BarstoolBlues33]

If Wade didn't get hurt they would definitely made it to the finals and probably won. Wade's body kept him from being top 10 because he had top 10 talent...his body just wouldn't cooperate, though. He's still top 25 all time either way.

[@Manu-qq2im]

Barstool Blues lol what? 3rd best sg all time and top 25???? He’s locked at top 15 all time.

[@urbaindelva7869]

As great as Pat Bev is as a defender, he's probably a better irritant and his size can be taken advantage of. Jimmy is great too, but Draymond has been defending some of the best players for the most of the last decade.

[@TwentyFourSevenOfficial]

That fractured rib slowdown Wade in this series. They could have been the opponent of San Antonio Spurs.

[@showstoppa16]

can you plz do his 2006 ECF highlights

[@Dickey271]

Wade was so MJ in his early prime

[@razkable]

when people try to put curry over wade all time already i remind them of this series and 2011 his stats in 5 of those 6 finals games and his 2011 season two ways....curry didn't win a legit ring until he had 4 prime all stars 2 prime mvps and a finals mvp on his team cause 2015 was luck based due to injuries to the cavs...wade should have 4 titles 2 finals mvps maybe 5 titles and 3 finals mvps curry got lucky kd came to his team and kyrie/love got hurt

[@Diazinweshchester112]

[@joshuajap]

even though shaq was almost mvp during this years regular season it was wade who carried them in the playoffs 2 years straight & they would have won this series had he not been injured

[@gdfactoryclips]

Lmaoo absolutely bro! And if you're new please hit that sub button, brotha! Would love to see you around :)

[@joshuajap]

GD's Highlights Ive been subbed for awhile & love all the work you have done on the channel & I would also appreciate it if U could repeat this video for the 2006 ECF

[@ADAJ3KINGANGEL]

8:40 was sick!

[@LucrativeLessonsWithLandy]

34:20 There's the Young Mike of this era walking up to the podium! Mang, that boy's too nice.

[@Chenrandyliu]

Lebron is the only players needs three superstars to win rings

[@kwokchunman7786]

How about kobe?

[@narutome45cj]

***** What about Kobe Dwight and Nash? Or Manu, Tim, and Parker? Or Rondo,Ray,Pierce,and Garnett?

[@Chenrandyliu]

Michael Jordan U really counted Nash in for superstar? He was 37 when we acquire him.. Tim, Manu, and Parker were there at the beginning not like Lebron purposely forming a super team and abandon his hometown. Rondo was no super star yet he was a rookie, Garnett was past his prime.

[@ericortiz7753]

Kobe had the best coach of all time Lebron had Brown and spolstera -.- I hate when people start arguing about who is the best JUST ENJOY THE GAME!!

[@SoOoWaVyYy39]

***** How bout Kobe, Bynum (when he actually wanted to play and was a top 3 center in the league), a prime Pau Gasol (soft yes but a lock for 20&10) and Lamar Odom (who was the best player off the bench in the league and could've been a great starter anywhere else). Kobe fans are so delusional it's disgusting

[@elbowgang9715]

I'm still sick Joe Dumars picked Darko over D Wade

[@razkable]

if he picks wade the pistons win who knows how many titles for sure make many finals.....they would of been the favorites even without sheed from 2005-2009 .....with sheed they win in 2004 and 2010 too...

[@dubzkingnation9429]

Even though the Pistons lost the finals I'm happy they made it

[@r0achvision]

dude if shaq actually hustled and boxed out couldvbe helped wade, our boi eddie, and the greatwhite choco def get at least 2 rings.. that is why the 2 wallaces will always be shaq's dad. and i love shaq too but tbh its pretty obvious looking back. in 06 if they would have just played thru shaq they wouldve lost like lakeshow did in for like 3 years in the late 90s when all they did was play thru shaq and just watched

[@coloneldusty4476]

Shaq was injured in the 2005 playoffs. He was dominant vs Detroit in 2006. How you gonna say that about Wallace and Sheed when Shaq averaged 26 on 60 percent shooting on the both of them? What playoff series did MJ ever average 60 percent shooting? Plus you watching highlights man. Highlights…

[@shacharoren2788]

5:55 hot damn

[@alexgutierrez5459]

Kind of off topic but..... is Wade wearing converse?

[@jarvasedundy1]

+KryptoChronicutelite Yea they were

[@razkable]

yep probably why he had knee issues but also why he was so fast ...he sacrificed comfort and protection for speed

[@andreigongu881]

He could have been on kobe's level if it weren't for all those injuries and bad teams in the late 2000's

[@kakilla1000]

28:21 nice ref

[@swozz4444]

is it me or does kobe looks alil darker, shorter and why is he wearing the number 3

[@bars7623]

When the fuck was he wearing Number 3? O.o

[@wesmillz]

BARS the joke.... Your head

[@alexchilled]

Dwayne Wade has always been better then LeBron!!

[@MrGriff305]

***** Wade in his prime Finals performance was better than any of Lebron's. Lebron sabotaged the 2011 Finals because Wade would've been the 2011 Finals MVP. Had Lebron won his first Finals as the second best guy, Lebron's legacy as the self proclaimed "best player in the world" would've been severely damaged. People would've always remembered that. So it was smart of Lebron to wreck 2011.

[@MrGriff305]

+Jake Henry 2011, the year Lebron ran away from Cleveland to join Wade, he "choked" in the Finals when Wade was outperforming him. Thank God Wade didn't get Finals MVP, because then the "best player in the world" would be riding Wade's coattails as the second best on the team, and everyone would've always remembered how Wade gave Lebron his first ring.

[@MrGriff305]

+Jake Henry In 2006, Dwyane Wade decided the Heat were not going to lose, so he scored 40 ppg in 4 consecutive wins to get the first Championship (all in sub 100 pt games). That was among the most dominant Finals performances of all time. Wade then had the best PER in the 2011 Finals too, but the "team chemistry" hadn't been established yet.

[@Spokenwisdom1]

This one puts you over Dawkins in my book! Nice Work!

[@allthatjeff]

I think GD uploads more Wade then Dawk Ins.

[@mamenesini]

I'm pretty sure they consolidated for a bit during the playoffs. These guys work together.. Good old fashion monopoly, no competition here

[@Spokenwisdom1]

Very true. They made a partnership to bring awareness to both parties. However, when it comes to my personal preference, I would put GD over Dawkins. I'm a big fan of the Wade highlights.

[@mamenesini]

I've Probly seen them all at this point. Wish they would put up 2010 where wade torched the celtics. His 46 point game was awesome, but he was equally as dope that entire series. People who say he can't bust threes should watch those highlights

[@allthatjeff]

M Menesini Dawkins uploaded that game already.

[@KS-jn7bs]

It's not a given whether Miami would've beaten San Antonio that year but anyone saying SAS would've smashed us is either a Tim Duncan stan or moron. Miami would've beaten Detroit if Wade was healthy (FACT) and due to Detroit nearly repeating that year, I don't see how Miami wouldn't have made it a 6/7 game series, especially with a healthy 27/6/7 Flash who was not far off from his '06 dominance. Now '05 Heat vs '05 Suns? That would've been interesting. Still got Miami. Phoenix played no defense and the '7 seconds or less' offense could be exposed by good defensive teams in the P/O. However, they had a ridiculous amount of scorers on that team. Nash/Amar'e/Matrix/JJ/Q-Rich. Too bad those Suns teams had no center next to Amar'e. He played center himself in '07. Tyson Chandler would've been perfect on that team.

[@NobodyTouchesJordan]

Phoenix vs Detroit would have been a good Finals matchup. Great Offense/Bad Defense vs Limited Offense/Great Defense Highest Pace Team vs Lowest Pace team Billups vs Nash Prince vs Marion Rip vs Joe Johnson Amare vs Rasheed/Ben and both teams had a thin bench, so the starting 5s would have to match up even more often than usual.

[@liammcknight680]

07 Kurt Thomas played center like 20 minutes a game and really balanced em out, they shoulda won it all that year but they got Robert horry'd into an a are suspension

[@marcolaporte4584]

[@bobbo0383]

Kevin Surur That lineup PHX had though, thinking back was very similar to the death lineup GSW has. Maybe with a more defensive minded coach they would have been

[@kmena05]

it's like me saying what if Ray Allen didn't hit that 3 pointer the Spurs would've won 6 championships
