Wade's poor game was because of injury

INDIANAPOLIS -- Tough defense may not have been the only factor that contributed to Dwyane Wade having one of the worst playoff performances of his career in Thursday's blowout loss in Game 3 to the Indiana Pacers.

Wade is still dealing with lingering injuries that forced him to miss several games late in the regular season, and the Miami Heat guard required treatment in recent days for knee and leg soreness, sources told ESPN.com Thursday.

to be fair pp did have that 7 pt game a few games back haha... but no you're right wade is a panzy. I have no respect for him and he will never dominate with an injury the way pierce did two nights ago

Come on now Paul has played injured along with Ray this playoffs and you rarely hear them talking about their injuries and making excuses.
Wade needs to stop it. Also he had the audacity to get mad about the Pacers celebrating their win in Game 2 when he and his buddy LeBron did the same thing after they beat the Celtics in last years playoffs and when they were up 15 in the 4th quarter in game 2 during last years finals.

Harden up D.Wade. The hits are gonna keep coming thick and fast. You deserve every single one of them aswell.

based off the OP... Wade wasn't quoted at all. I'm not a Wade fan but.. is there a quote of him blaming his injuries?

It wasn't any quote directly from Wade but it's sources blaming injury and that usually means people within his circle coming from him or the Heat which is lame

The past 2 seasons I have lost all respect for Wade.  From dirty play to flopping, to whiny behavior

This has actually existed for about 4 maybe 5 seasons...no one cared  post-shaq when miami was irrelevant..

I'd also say the op is completely and utterly wrong that this is the "difference" between pierce and wade...bad example considering theyre both known for going in wheel chairs and just so you know every time Pierce has played bad there have been reports of injury...jus saying

[CoachBo]

I don't pay much attention to this, or find it particularly believable.

The national media has hyped this Heat outfit so much that excuses are going to be flowing when and if they fall flat on their faces.

Yawn.

How is this different than Pierce?  Pierce also had several bad games that the media attributed to injury.  Its not like Wade is going to the media saying he is injured, he is keeping his mouth shut about it, just like Pierce.

Agreed, OP couldnt have made a worse comparison if he tried...its almost a replica of what just happened after Pierces bad game 2

Wade defines the word "PUNK" , untrained pit-bull attitude,  inmature, won't play hurt, will harm another player in order to win., cheap shot artist ( Metta Wade Peace) , whinner, showboat , NOT COACHABLE , temper tantrums, weak team player, doesn't want to practice . Wants to freelance , not run plays. Hates criticism , the list goes on & on.  

Asset ...pure god given physical assets and strenght.  Now years of dunking and playing non team ball are catching up . Can't rely on these every game.

I wouldn't trade him for Bradley even. Hope he stays on the Cheat . LBJ should have never paired with him.

He will never be a role player off the bench...value in trade , near worthless to a REAL BASKET BALL TEAM that plays 5 players on the court.

there's a whole lot of difference between pierce and wade guys..pierce is playing injured on a "washed-up old" team, whereas wade plays for the "best nba team ever" assembled, anointed to win it all everytime they enter the court..pierce was visibly hurt in one of the games against the hawks,wade was not,allegedly a recurrence from his past injury in the regular season..please never, ever equate pierce with a dirty player such as wade, injured or not..never justify how media treats pierce and wade because we all know media hypes up whatever miami lays on the table,not the same way they treat the celts..no wonder they look at celts as soft, even posters and moderators have been soft to the opponents..such a tragedy..

Yawn... Theyre comparable if you take off the green tinted glasses, has virtually nothing to do with whos favored by the media.
Pierce has matured for sure but theyre more than comparable when it comes to the injury excuse after a bad game or getting carried off on a wheel chair
sorry

the problem here is we have $i$$ie$ pretending to be fans glorifying $i$$ie$ from other teams..i bet you are one of those saying that KG made a blatant foul on game 2 justifying the refs' call as spot-on which caused us the game..alright, i thought so..
