Dwyane Wade is a lot dirtier than I thought he was, and I have a really low opinion of him as a player. It seems like he’s trying to intimidate players because he’s losing a couple steps, so the psychological advantage makes up for the physical one he’s lost. What a D-bag.

BigBlueAL: He definitely didnt lose it before he got to NY considering the previous 2 seasons he won the championship then followed that up by reaching Game 7 of the NBA Finals.

But being around Isiah and Dolan could definitely make someone alot dumber lol.

yeah, I didn’t remember that he came right from DET like that, I thought there was time in between.

I do remember that he was incapable of figuring out a starting lineup in NY, to the point where he let guys start in their hometowns on the road (!!!). he seemed way more interested in power games with Isiah than actually doing the job he was being paid a huge amount to do, he made D’Antoni’s time in NY look good by comparison.

Nate is an interesting suggestion. Many thanks. I actually think the Nets roster might be suited to a slow offensive team, but if Williams doesn’t buy in I doubt it will go anywhere. I know most of this forum will revolt at the thought, but Isiah Thomas was actually a coach that players liked to play for and who could live with a speedy offense ;). Not that I am recommending hiring him.

guys lose it in every profession, Brown lost it before he came to NY (or when he came to NY?), unfortunately for us. I think with basketball coaches, the older you get, the harder it is to connect with the much younger players.
