4 years????????? insanity at that price....wow. they'll get one year of decent production and 3 years of ridicule.
windhorstESPN: Wade took about an $11 million reduction in guaranteed money over 2 years after opting out. Rollback made it possible to sign Luol Deng.

Not unexpected. That's what I figured a discount would look like for him (in the 4/$60m range)... Wade is the franchise there, he played for them his entire career, won the only 3 rings they have, they'll take care of him...
i was talking about this quote but i guess 2 years sounds a lot better
Over 74 games (including the playoffs) , he averaged 18.7 ppg, and shot 52% FG
when he did play (save for the Finals) he efficiency was ridiculous. 19 ppg on 54% in the regular season.
two years at $30+ million isn't bad at all considering the rising cap will take any sting out of the contract.
^while deferring to lebron. he won't be that efficient as their #1 go to option on offense imho. a year older too.
19 ppg,54% FG, 4.7 RPG, 4.3 APG 22.0 P.E.R over 54 games in the regular season
(his ECF numbers was identical to his regular season average as well)
no way he deserves less than 12 million per year.
Sure, but it not like he last year was out of character, he was always one of the more efficient guards in the league. PG play is going to be much more important this time around without Lebron but its not like his shooting % is going to nose dive. He actually left points on the table with such a poor FT% (73.6) he should be at about 17 ppg next year IMO. Bosh can score 20 a game and Deng around 15 ppg. The key is how productive the rotation players are going to be. They need a couple of guys that can put up 10+ per game.
His rookie year was his worst at 46.5% FG , still very solid) he hasn't shot below 47% in 6 years. He has also cut down on his 3pt attempts attempted .6 per game. He doesn't take shots that he knows he can't make which is a rarity nowadays.
He will be 33 and has a history with bad knees, that's always a concern but when he does play, he is still very good.
Lets see how his numbers stand without playing off LeBron.
If healthy, him Bosh will see a rise in numbers. That's going to be a given.
opting out and signin this deal fail
40/2, after 2 seasons whose to say he cant get more then 20m for final paycheck contract?
Youtube takes...
For what Green brings, at his salary, I'm glad we have him but to say he is better than Wade is idiotic. Wade is breaking down but even then he put up numbers Green would NEVER put up as a 1st or 2nd option. Show me numbers..
Wade still had a better defensive rating btw.
so basically wade opted out of 2 years 42 mil to get 2 years 30 mil? k...
i'd take Green at 4 mil over Wade at 15 mil seven days a week and twice on sundays
You mean finals footage?
Incredibly wrong.
Green: 98
Wade: 120
I mean holy , hilariously wrong.

Wade was broken down by then and it's a small sample compared to amount games you need win to get there. He was playing really well before then.
Don't know where you got your numbers, but I just looked it up on basketball reference and I stand corrected. Green is 101 and Wade 106.
Incredibly wrong.
Green: 98
Wade: 120

Either way this wasn't about defense. If you put Green in Wade's position, he wouldn't put anything close on the other end. Wade is a , one of the biggest pussies in the league but even at this point in his career he is better than Green.
Never said otherwise. Just saying if you weren't looking at salaries and just playing a game of pick up basketball, you would pick Wade over Green.
Move dem goalposts.
I said Wade is a better offensive player. This is only about defense, or you started arguing with the wrong person.
Wade played really well against the Bobcats and Wizards. Whoopty- ing-do. "He was broken down by then" No, he finally faced a decent opponent and he was exposed as a pile of washed up (on defense).
The post you responded to was about who the better player is. Bobcats were 4th in defense and the Pacers, who seemed to have forgot about, were 2nd.
The Spurs exposed that entire team and it's defensive scheme.
Oh ok, Wade had a better D rating than Green, finals footage is to be dismissed as "youtube takes," and the Heat had a difficult road to the finals. Those are your arguments. Mmmhmmm, thanks I'll meditate on this new knowledge I've gained. Well played, you are a fount of basketball insight.
Picking and choosing.
on everything you said dude. I'm sorry.
