You did not just compare Heild to Wade. They are literally nothing a like. Wade was 6'3 with a 7'0 wingspan and one of the most athletic and explosive players in the game. He was one of the best in slashing and getting to the rim and drawing foul. Heild is none of those so stop posting. I can't wait till next season so I can say told you so for being the only fan base to dumbly over hype better Jodie Meeks.


Lulz.

Hield measured at 6'4" with a 6'8.5" wingspan so it's not like we're talking about someone in a different stratosphere height and length-wise.

Also, I mentioned that Wade was a more athletic player. Now will you mention that Hield is a SUBSTANTIALLY better shooter? Given where the game has evolved, this dead-eye shooting ability will come in awful handy.

Lastly, Hield was known as primarily a slasher early in his career. He's worked tremendously to improve his three-point game. He's not a guy who shoots cause he can't make plays off the bounce, far from it.

All you have to do is watch the game right now to see how diverse this kid is offensively.

He is really doing it all right now EXCEPT knocking down 3's: slashing, drawing fouls, transition playmaking, backdoor cutting, defense, boarding, off ball play, drawing defenders away for teammates to score and he should have 3 assists by now but his teammates haven't hit the open looks he got em.

I am not sure Wade is the right comparison but Hield is more then some want to describe him.
