Olympic 08's Wade is similar to Olympic 92's Jordan

said people on realgm.

Agree or disagree?



Anyways, his contributions on Team USA so far has been great!

Kobe is much better than Wade and even if he is compared to MJ, its kinda ridiculous...let alone Wade...

when will these 12 year old fans understand? THERE IS ONLY ONE AIR JORDAN.

MJ could have averaged 70 points during the olympics if he wanted to...he just didn't need to do more because that team was stacked.

Barkley was amazing in 92.

Wade has been absolutely balling on the offensive end but I wouldn't go putting the MJ tag on him. I would have to say if anyone has been just all around balling it would be LBJ. (Let us not forget Kobe being there really frees these guys up to just gamble and play help defense)

Well Jordan only averaged 15pts on 45% FG in the 92 olympics so its not saying much.

Wade's been great so far though.

I don't know, its only a 40 minute game. Maybe 68.

Barkley was the monster during that run. Everyone else just did the background work, which made CB's life easy.

Let's see, he's African American, about the same age and size, has a shaved head... yeah, I guess he's similar to MJ in '92.

I don't know if you would compare him to MJ, but Wade has been impressive to say the least, looks to have his explosiveness back.

He is nothing like Mike in 92 because Mike in 92 was the worlds best. But Wade has been fantastic and is looking like his old self again.
I said before that he was the wildcard that puts the team over the edge and I'll stick by it.

How dare you!!!

Michael was a GOD. He never missed, just look at the highlights on youtube!!!

Clutch Shot??? He's a 100% in those situations.

Carry a team full of Kwame's and Smush's, Radman's and Walton's??? With his left hand no problem.

BACK OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!

mike played like crap in the 92 olympics... he chucked the ball the most while having the worst shooting percentage on the team...

espn compared lebron james ot michale phelps. i laughed so hard my pants fell off and i sneezed milk out of my mouth.

I know this is "Club Lakers" and all....but cmon...let's not kid ourselves.

Wade is truly amazing. Kobe may or may not be better, but he certainly is not "much" better than Wade.

How quick the pundits forgot about his under 20 win season last year.

I guess not that he's "healthy" again, he's the next MJ.

They aren't pundits. The only information the op gave us was that the people making this claim on realgm, were just people on realgm.

...Or how quickly ppl forgot about how he led his team to a championship as the #1 guy.

I mean it's obvious: last year Dwyane Wade simply was not Dwyane Wade. He's back to '06 form now.

Hate him, love him...his talent and skills are undeniable. Same with Kobe.

^ your over defense of Wade is very interesting indeed.

nah, it's just that all this "insecure fan" wade hate annoys me. I'm a fan...the guy's fun to watch...check out the olympics.

It's OK though, kobe still is and will always be top player no matter what Wade does.

Was it really necessary to write that in a size 24 font? Also, Wade has gambled like crazy on the defensive end. He and CP3 might be the worst defenders on the team.

How many of those idiots on realgm were old enough to watch the Olympics game for game in 92? I highly doubt that forum is filled with 30 year old basketball heads who know their stuff and legitately make those comparisons. Same goes for people who talk about Magic vs MJ, showtime lakers vs ____ tea, etc. If you weren't there watching those games live without knowing the outcome, then I don't want to hear it because you truly won't know how great a player is until you experience that.

Agree 100% Dwayne Wade is amazing to watch. Hes my 2nd favorite player behind Kobe.
