the official Dwayne Wade <<<<<< you thread

We're killing itttt, outplayed NY in the 2nd half and had Anthony in shackles all night

Makes it 4 straight wins, 5-2 since the Rudy trade.

Thanks Memphis

Chicago/Boston and Toronto/NYK were straight up ugly games at times.

With about 1min left in 3rd, Boston had 41 points.

Because of Lebrons great scoring and shooting run, people have started to think about other runs like or better than this.

Some interesting ones.

In 1988', MJ had 10 triple doubles in 11 games

Kobe is the oldest player in NBA history to have at least 30 in 10 consecutive games. Michael Jordan and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar come in second at five.

The last player to top Kobe's streak was Bryant himself. He had 16 consecutive games with 30 points from Jan. 29, 2003, to Feb. 28, 2003.

As for how Kobe's streak stacks up against past legends, don't hold your breath.

Wilt Chamberlain had 55 consecutive games with 30-plus points from Nov. 4, 1961, to Feb. 22, 1962.

In 2003, Bryant scored 40 points or more in nine consecutive games, tying Jordan, who accomplished the same feat in the 1986–87 season. The only player with longer streaks of 40 or more is Chamberlain, who had 14 consecutive games twice in the 1961–62 season and 10 consecutive games in the 1962–63 season.

Bryant had scored at least 50 points in four games in a row to become the second player in NBA history with such a streak, joining the late Wilt Chamberlain.

Chamberlain scored 50 or more in a record seven straight games in December 1961. He also had a five-game streak and three four-game streaks during the 1961-62 season, when he averaged a record 50.4 points.

Yeah I've actually heard pundits state this the best 5-6 game run ever. Not even close.

Jordan had 7 triple doubles in a row, pick any 5.

Some others are Barkley. Had a variety of 5 game stretches where he averaged 37+ppg, 17rpg on 70%.

Larry Bird: 34ppg, 10rpg, 6apg, 2spg. 69% FG and 79(!!)% from 3.

Shaq: 41 and 15
35 and 16 with 2 steals and 3 blocks

Miami @ OKC .. Biggest game of the year baby

LeBron took like 8 steps when hr shot over ibaka, bit reggie Jackson gets a very light travel..
And also OKC needs to stop with the iso plays...

1st half dominance

We are all witnesses

LeBron is so good....
But seriously Scott Brooks needs to fix an offense with a purpose instead of this schoolyard Ball, and he needs to stop starting Perkins against Heat, never works

Short memory these idiots.

Damn those ones though, I knew the Shaq one, I remember it...the rest I did not know about...Bird that GOAT

79% from 3?

Watched the Miami-OKC game and good lord the Lebron wankfest

Didn't watch the Lakers-Clippers game though... 3am

Even mole can see it

You watch the NBA regular?

The wankfest has been going on for years now, its worse now that he is on a great run.

I dont mind it so much now..at least he has a Championship..its when he had completely flopped and frozen in all the other years before this...and still they showered us with cum over him.

But I give him his due, at least he is a winner now.

I watch as much as i can, but the time zones don't really help... last night was good for me as i don't work on Friday's but even then staying up well beyond 3am aint happening

When i was younger i watched a lot, but now its quite difficult.

Also i agree at least he has a ring on his finger now, but none the less it is a bit ridiculous at times.

I also laughed how they was wanking over his 6 game run, with Shaq in the f*cking studio

Yeah, its redicilous. Its a shame even people like Charles Barkley are caught up on the hype.

He actually said he dont know if he ever seen anything like this before...my god, he himelf played like this this....

I don't see why you guys don't think his recent run is special.. Nobody has ever done it before so why not? It was probably the most efficient 30 pt stretch in NBA history, nothing more nothing less

Yeah. Barkley himself has probably had 3-4 stretches better.

Here's the site I got those from with even more:

What hasn't anyone done before?

I just realised watching highlights Barkley was in the studio with Shaq and the rest etc etc

Didn't recognize him with that cotton wool shit he had on his head

Which honestly makes the wankfest even more of a joke, having two guys in the studio discussing what he's done when they themselves have done similar if not better.

Oh well, media always going to hype the best around at the time i suppose and completely disregard the past.

So what are your thought about tonight's rising stars game?
I'm cheering for Shaq, he has some great shooters on his team, I think who wins could depend on how much Kyrie will play tonight
EDIT: btw the draftsystem for the game is stupid.... Should be a serpentine system, atleast that what it's called in 2k, would make more equal teams

^ No Drummond, no care.

Really though, I want Shaq to win but he literally has no post presence now that Drummond is hurt. And if Irving doesn't play much because he's likely to play a lot Sunday, I would like to see a lot of Kemba.

Agree about the draft format.
Should've ended up like this
Shaq-Irving
Chuck-Lillard
Chuck-Davis
Shaq-Drummond
Shaq-Thompson
Chuck-Faried
Chuck-Beal
etc

Kyrie Irving and Damian Lillard should be playing against each other.

Jordan(7 game stretch):
30.6ppg, 11.6rpg, 11.0apg, 3.1spg

LeBron didn't average 30+ points during the stretch, dmize, he scored at least 30 points on 60% shooting during each game. Not to mention he had the 7th game in the bag and decided to shoot a long range 3 because the shot clock was running low (very respectable after watching Rondo clearly chase after a record earlier this season). I believe that is what Swagg was referring to when he said LeBron has done something no one has done before.

Most of you should know where I stand on LeBron (I have never been a big fan of his), but I think he is having an amazing season. I always knock players who I think are not playing to their maximum potential and it is clear to me that LeBron has really been putting in that work.

Seems like another arbitrary ESPN stat to me. Why is the cut off 60? It's impressive but also overhyped. Many, many stretches have been better.

Here's another(5 games):

ESPN will be ESPN. Not arguing with you about who has had better stretches, just clearing up the one thing.

Lol you have got to love Chuck
