View Full Version : Dwyane Wade: "If we lose a couple in a row, it will be like the WTC coming down"

"We're going to be wearing a bullseye,'' Wade said. "But that's what you play for. If we lose a couple in a row this season, it will be like the World Trade (Center) is coming down again. When the schedule comes out, people will be looking for the Lakers and Heat, to see when they play us. I feel like I'm a new player in Miami. That's how excited I am.''

What Wade really said:
"We're going to be wearing a bullseye. But that's what you play for," Wade said. "We enjoy the bullseye. Plus, there's going to be times when we lose 2-3 games in a row, and it seems like the world has crashed down. You all are going to make it seem like the World Trade is coming down again, but it's not going to be nothing but a couple basketball games.

Lebron is just a Kobe fan, and Wade is a Kobe hater. Notice how excited that queer Lebron gets when Sager asked him who he was there to see play. You'd think someone gave him a bag of dicks. His reaction is worse than mono publicly admitting to giving Anthony Randolf head under the bleachers in a public gymnasium.

I never looked at it like that...but in fact it's true...LeQeer loves Kobe and Wade hates Kobe...I wonder how that's going to play in the locker room...

While Wade, Bosh and James were dreaming of being NBA players, Kobe was three-peating. Eight years later, while Wade, Bosh, and James are dreaming of becoming champions, Kobe is still three-peating.


Here's another stat that jumps out...Kobe's career has been a microcosm of the Lakers success...he has 14 seasons and 7 Finals appearances...that looks like a 50% success rate to me...

Lakers have been in the NBA for 62 years and have been in half the finals as well with 31 appearances 50% success rate....:toast

This guy was humble in his early days in the league, then gradually became more arrogant as he won a championship and ascended to superstar status and now he's toiling near Bryant and James level arrogance.

How ironic that you post ad nauseum about how you cannot beleive that anyone can support Kobe and your you're knobslobbing a coward, a guy who tossed his teammates under the buss, lied to his fans, and now his new teammate who compares losing two basketball games to losing thousands of Americans living in your city.

Honestly I think he has always been supremely arrogant just that earlier in his career he was smarter at covering it up. He definitely knew how to whore out Shaq without coming across as a bad teammate unlike Kobe. I like watching the guy play what he did to the Mavs in '06 was amazing but lol he has always been arrogant.

Saying his reference to the World Trade Center was taken "completely out of context," Heat star Dwyane Wade issued an apology of sorts Monday.

"In an interview [Sunday], I attempted to explain how some people may view the Miami Heat losing a few basketball games in a row during the upcoming season," Wade said in the statement released by his public relations team. "It appears that my reference to the World Trade Center has been either inaccurately reported or taken completely out of context. I was simply trying to say that losing a few basketball games should not be compared to a real catastrophe. While it was certainly not my intention, I sincerely apologize to anyone who found my reference to the World Trade Center to be insensitive or offensive."http://ken-berger.blogs.cbssports.com/mcc/blogs/entry/11838893/23272921

It isn't the comments that bug me but the arrogance. The Miami Thrice really think it is going to be so easy for them to win it all. They feel they won't have to work for it. They really believe that they won't face any adversity in the playoffs, and that everybody is just going to lie down for them.


That specific kind of arrogance bothers me. They are in for a rude awakening if they think winning it all is going to be walk in the park.

that's the media for ya ... hell, Jordan made a statement about LeBron and they went ahead and ran with it as if it was World Trade worthy. Was it a bad analogy, probably but it's not like he's lying.

I turned to Comcast, there's Mike's quote. ESPN? There's the quote. CNN? There's the quote. Other outlets? Radio? There's the quote. Dude was actually speaking the truth to a certain extent.

even though this was taken out of context,

Wade needs to please shut the fuck up until the season starts.

There is nothing to be gained by talking and responding to the haters right now. Once the season is underway, and the winning starts, and the fascination skyrockets, all this shit will be forgotten.

until then, please, stfu.

Saying his reference to the World Trade Center was taken "completely out of context," Heat star Dwyane Wade issued an apology of sorts Monday.

"In an interview [Sunday], I attempted to explain how some people may view the Miami Heat losing a few basketball games in a row during the upcoming season," Wade said in the statement released by his public relations team. "It appears that my reference to the World Trade Center has been either inaccurately reported or taken completely out of context. I was simply trying to say that losing a few basketball games should not be compared to a real catastrophe. While it was certainly not my intention, I sincerely apologize to anyone who found my reference to the World Trade Center to be insensitive or offensive."

Later, he added, "I feel like I've been put in a concentration camp these last 24 hours."

It isn't the comments that bug me but the arrogance. The Miami Thrice really think it is going to be so easy for them to win it all. They feel they won't have to work for it. They really believe that they won't face any adversity in the playoffs, and that everybody is just going to lie down for them.


That specific kind of arrogance bothers me. They are in for a rude awakening if they think winning it all is going to be walk in the park.

true that, i don't think Lakers or Celtics thought that when both got better and never said anything like that could be wrong though

His choice of hyperbole aside, the sentiment is on-point. No team has more pressure on them to win a Championship for the foreseeable future than the Miami Heat.

If they fail, they take James' legacy with them. But he's a pussy for doubling-down. I don't understand that.

Eh. Just a no-win situation. Happens all the time in b-ball. Lakers can't appreciate wins over the Clippers for instance. They're supposed to beat them. What's the upside? And if they lose, well...

They better think the journey will be hard as hell because championships are earned. Winning it all is anything but easy.

Getting defensive aren't we? It is more than just confidence. It is a specific type of arrogance. They have been showing it since they all united. They think just because they joined forces, that there won't be any adversity. That there won't be tough times. That there won't be ups and downs. That is the vibe I am getting from them.

Time will tell. I need to see how they handle adversity in the playoffs. On top of that, Riley needs to get Spoelstra out because he is the best coach for this roster especially in the postseason.


Look they can have all the confidence in the world. They can even be arrogant thinking they are the best team.They along with the fans better expect the journey to have its ups and downs. That it will have its frustrating moments. That there will be adversity and it won't be all laughs and smiles.

Celts are an arrogant as fuck team. Pierce talked a ton of shit after the 2008 title. The best player in the world thing he should have kept to himself. KG bullies weak point guards. Eddie House during his time here, popped his jersey constantly after a made shot. Etc etc. You won't see any denial from me that the Celts are a team of douchebags.

Chris McKendry took a little jab at Dwyane Wade on SportsCenter after reading his apology when she said something like, "Anyone who was offended? Shouldn't it be 'everyone' who was offended?"

Then she laughed at him, lol.

Knew what he meant and didn't think he said anything wrong. The only mistake Wade made was not realizing how PC you have to be when dealing with the media.

Exactly..

Derek Fisher is a guy Wade could use as an example to follow..
