Giving all his answers a 9/10.
Another amazing LeBeautiful comment
Thank you for your input LeBeautiful
😆👍
That profile pic is AHmazing!!!
I remember u posting comments five years ago and I wondered where u we’re. Nice to know your still alive.
Him saying the open shot is the hardest is the most Dwyane Wade answer ever.
no cap tho the open shot esp the open layup is the most frustrating shot ever loll
@@ponkr I’ve seen Westbrook and Giannis mis open layups too.
@@Splackavellie85basically any nba player
@@lhype1748 I don’t doubt that. Those are just two that I remember seeing.
agreed. not just basketball. a tap-in in soccer/football is harder than a lot of people think!
This dude knows a lot about basketball he should become an nba player
Not funny
Yeah he should
Bro are you serious? Dwyane Tyrone Wade Jr. (/dweɪn/ DWAYN;[1] born January 17, 1982)[2] is an American former professional basketball player.[3] Wade spent the majority of his 16-year career playing for the Miami Heat of the National Basketball Association (NBA) and won three NBA championships, was a 13-time NBA All-Star, an 8-time member of the All-NBA Team, and a 3-time member of the All-Defensive Team. Wade is also Miami's all-time leader in points, games, assists, steals, shots made, and shots taken.

Unarguably one of the greatest SGs of all time. And the way he’s able to break down and simplify basketball concepts proves it

@@Mikeyvellii he never said that tho😭😭 he said D Wade was ONE OF the best. reading is fundamental.
@@Mikeyvellii unarguably no one is better than jordan and unarguably wade is top 3 best SG
“If you get beat by 20, you’ve known for a long time that the game is over” true …very true
I love this. I don’t think I’ve ever really heard him speak more than a sound bite. He’s super intelligent, I definitely see why he was always the go to guy
Ikr
Hes taken acting classes in Hollywood. Hes def not heterosexual anymore
@@krisersn3092 Exactly lol. Dude is all over the 🌈 now.
@@krisersn3092 Whats with the homophobia?
fr though. i feel like they're saying that cuz of D-Wade's Daughter, Zaya. idiots will be idiots i guess.
He’s very diplomatic with his answers
Yes exactly
We all know Giannis is much harder to Guard than Durant. But he gave the diplomatic answer not to upset his friend KD. The xenophobic media narrative against Giannis makes people believe Him and KD are close. They actually aren't. Giannis does things on both sides of court KD can never do in his life.
@@basicLife7721 are you high?
@@arkoudiou yes. Giannis eats KD alive. Like he did game 7.
Stop lying to yourself
He got that media training.
A little too diplomatic. We all prefer listening to Charles Barkley than Kenny Smith.
His answer to the open shot explains why free throws are so hard in game
True
Hard? Most players make over 70% of free throws, 50 % on field goals and around 35% of their 3s, so that's the easiest besides uncontested layups. The hardest shot has to be a 3 pointer with someone hand checking you
@@alfonsoterrero8840 thank you
@@alfonsoterrero8840 ok but it’s an open shot, it should be 90% for everyone but the open pressure makes everyone way worse
@@alfonsoterrero8840 it’s mentally
While physically yea that’s the hardest shot, mentally the open shot has a lot more variability to it, it’s the fact that’s because the fact that it is easier and you have more options is what makes it hard. First you got to calculate what angle, which is a bigger range then someone on you, then there is also the pressure of “I should always be making this shot” that gets to you.
People like to think that these athletes are stupid but playing, coaching and even explaining basketball in its entirety takes a lot intelligence imo
I mean to be fair. Some of them are idiots.
@@yoshatabi true, but they don’t become coaches or greats in the league
@@yoshatabi hilarious thing is, the people with higher gpa's tend to make more boneheaded moves. Westbrook and Javale are prime examples of this, both had amazing grades but overthink and make terrible moves (Javale has fixed those tendencies though)
@@yoshatabi I'm not saying all of them are basketball geniuses but I guess some of them are idiots as you say lol
Most are idiots politically.
Whoever is booking these experts needs a raise Wired team!!!
Huh!?
Always loved Wade on court but wow he’s so thoughtful and intelligent too
9/10 fella
@@ogkok1869 Dunk Contest reference but he's indeed a 9/10
Dwyane Wade is a true gentleman, the way he speaks, accomplishments, knowledge, makes him near perfect gentleman
Except for the dirk mocking
9/10
Dwyane*
@@nickh4676 He did apologize for that and since then they have nothing but respect towards each other, truly a class act.
Near perfect... like 9/10.
I dont watch any sort of basketball, but this man speaks so truthfully that it kinda makes me want to watch a few games.
Watch the lakers
@@ibk2205 this will make him turn the TV off and I’m a lakers fan 😅
Don’t watch the lakers please
Start by watching one of the best teams. I'd recommend the Warriors, Suns, Nets, Bucks, Heat, Jazz, maybe the Lakers
@@warwick802 The Bulls have a better record than Bucks, Heat, and Lakers yet for some weird reason u didn't name them LOL.
Paused to go watch that Kyle Lowry clip and he's not kidding lmao, man was devastated when it went thru
czcams.com/video/uXhm3fOUbEE/video.html - THAT clip
He is such a good communicator. I’d love to see him coach.
Man doesn’t look like he aged a day. Good for him!
Black don’t crack. BING BING!!
@@kagani6202 *BONG
he honestly looks younger
I was today years old when I realized his name is "Dwyane" not "Dwayne".
And it’s pronounced almost like “d’wayen”
All this time, I thought I can read lol
@@karu6111 no its not
'I hate running'. Says the guy who has a nickname 'Flash'.
He doesn't like running so he try to get it done as soon as possible. It all makes sense now.
he has such good answers
Very concise. I enjoyed this.
You got 9/10 for your comments 😂
What's your instagram?
It's crazy how NBA players have a sophisticated voice when interviewing and sound soooo different in games
There's a video of Blake Griffin talking about this on Fallon basically saying that players are essentially exercising for 2 hours resulting in not a lot of oxygen making its way to the brain thereby making them sound stupid 😂
I love this segment when they invite the professional to talk their things
That raptors series was one of the grimiest most intense playoff series I ever watched in my life lol as a heat fan it was unforgettable
Bro the raptors r just a gritty team the year we won wit kawhi every game was hard to watch
Go Spurs Go! ;-p We had some legendary games back in the day
Such a fun, honest discussion, appreciate Mr. Wade’s consideration and charisma! Going to have to pick up that book!
His answer on nba players and playing against a zone coverage was so good
The Best nickname is 100% magic Johnson... I mean his nickname is so good that people don't know his real name!
Facts I remember on the older 2ks it had his real name I was so confused I’m like who tf is this dude and why is his overall so high 😂😭
@@willholt9461 hahaha
Tragic
White Mamba had a great line a few months ago in Duncan Robinsons podcast: " I'm closer to LeBron, than you are to me"
This was in response to those guys who think they can ball/beat someone in the NBA...when they can't. At all.
I don’t know the quote, but wouldn’t it be “you’re closer to me than I am to lebron?”
@@stripeybeast "...who think they can ball/beat someone in the NBA",
white mamba is referring to himself as that someone in the NBA
Remind me of that lower level nba player who beat everyone who challenged him on tv just to prove that
@Sherman Did Nothing Wrong yeah that's him
@@stripeybeast thats literally the opposite of the quote
These were great questions and even better answers.
Dwyane Wade was an incredible basketball player, but more impressive to me, he is an incredible father. Love seeing him share his knowledge and insight like this.
Incredible father? Lol nah
@@daniell5740 He's a great father.
@@daniell5740 i think his kids will disagree with you on that one
@@AtomicMushroomz He changed his son to a girl. Aint no good father
@@daniell5740 he is a great father tho
I agree with not having the 4 point line in the regular season and playoffs obviously, but how bout the all star game. It’s only one game a year
Having a 4 point line in the ASG would be great lol
Do more of these with him, that was great.
the zone question and dw answer is so meta, i love it. You can easily succumb to thinking, that everything in pro basketball is super advanced and tactical - but in reality a lot of the tactical decision making is made on a coaching level, behind the scenes almost. The day-2-day stuff is practical n simple. So D-wade is pragmatic in his answer, and puts us in the mind of a bball player. Interesting input really. That being said, Im continously amazed how the only real answers to for example miamis 2-2-1 / 2-3 zone in the playoffs was either - pass the ball in the highpost and see what happens or maybe set a screen on the ball on top and see what happens....???
problem was, they were screening in the wrong direction, ideally, youd force the bump rotation vs. 2-3, by pick and rolling towards the middle - not on the top. Also we almost didnt see any off ball screens vs. that zone either.
Pnr to force the bump combined with weakside screens have yet to happen in the NBA on a regular basis. And it´s weird, because they do so much of it in college... a lost art really
4:43 Thank you for this particular Q & A! It has been driving me crazy for YEARS, as it is so blatant!
i’m glad he told the truth. 9x10 it’s really allowed for entertainment. especially for dunks
Should have asked him what he was on when he gave Aaron Gordan that 9/10
This video was criminally short, bring back D Wade.
Love how he just explained the simple physics to answer the question about his dunk lmao
Surprised me as well that he can explain it simply lol. It just means that he really knows his stuff which is amazing.
I understood about 50% of this but still loved it
I think D would be a real good coach in the future, I hope he can lead a team when he’s not playing anymore
Idk he doesnt seem like a coach for some reason, a personal trainer seems like it to me
He rather be a analyst
He’s too much of an icon to be a coach. He’s more of the mogul/businessman archetype.
One of the best Wired videos I've seen to date. Truly a master of his craft. Listening to D-Wade talk basketball is just way too easy.
That dunk on Andy was so impressive.. first if all he didn't have all his momentum cuz he took one side step and dunked at a weird angle showing how strong he really is, Andy back pedaling was true and it was even better cuz LeBron tried to dunk the play before and got blocked then Dwade came down and Varejao folded like an accordion
I'll never understand the physics of a 6'4 Dwade euro stepping and dunking a 7'0 human being into the stanchion
@@infinitymixtapes9562 it looked so awkward and weird, even as a Cavs fan I'm not mad about it.. Andy always flopping anyways
I was at the game and almost dropped my popcorn
Miss D Wade bro! Third Greatest Shooting Guard of All-time!!!!
Whether you love him or hate him, you can’t deny that Dwyane Wade gives back to charity, especially in the Chicago area. He started the Wade’s World Foundation, a community-based charity, and gives regularly to Blood, Water, and the Spirit Ministry, his hometown church in Chicago. (In fact, 10% of his salary goes to the church.) He also donates to Marquette University.😄😄😄😄
@crita what 😲😲😲😲 get out of here 😭😭😭 saw ya on snipperwolf, onlyjayus n Mrw vids n now here 😤😤😤😤 well who s next 😠😠😠
@@aspiretoinspire9679 what they say?
@@Anonymous-ux8ku just some spammers 😭😭😭
the question about the pressure on an open shot is true. you don't have an excuse if you miss it. adds more pressure to the shooter i believe.
Single best Q&A on basketball and NBA I’ve seen. Great questions and great answers.
Watching him answer so cleverly all the questions I can't even imagine how hard it must have been for the rest of the NBA to play against him, not only he had the physicality and masterful technique , but a expert level understanding of the game itself.
So freakin educated and intelligent. Love the breakdown and the passion being exuded.
This was clearly a perfect video but, just the same, I will be scoring it as a 9 out of 10, Dwyane!
lame, come up with something new.
Cringe name
@@nanashi2146 Thanks a bunch for your concern, fam!
@@yusufal-kafir1539 You're welcome, glad to see you recognise what I said
@@nanashi2146 *you’re
The milwaukee bucks are still NBA champs! Love you D-Wade im still bummed you're retired man you were one of my favorites to watch growing up starting at marquette and all the way to the promised land with the heat 3 times!
“How do you guard a quick and fast man when your hands aren’t allowed to be placed like this?”
Not quite sure, might wanna ask the 06’ Mavs
D Wade can do anything. He's got it all
This is the smartest most professional NBA q&a I e ever seen. Very technical and honest explanations. Dwayne should be a coach.
This was fantastic! Love these questions and D answers!
Need to have some video clips of the moments he's describing.
D Wade is my favorite player of all time. Go back and watch this mans clips good lord he was crazy
Well spoken and informative, really enjoyed this
DWADE!!!!! My favorite player of all time
I love how the names of the chapters in the video are the names of the people who tweeted and not the subject matter itself, gave me a good laugh thinking Wade was talking about being a Certified Lover Boy when scanning the chapters
I love this episode of WIRED Tech Support! Despite all the jokes about him, most specifically that Dunk Contest controversy, Wade still answered these questions intelligently. At first, I was about to comment here "I'll give that interview a 9", but when I heard his answers, it changed my mind immediately lol Gotta love Dwyane Wade!
I remember listening to this humble guy in the 2005 ECF against Detroit, explain how he has the ability to take things to another level amazed me.
This is one of the best one of these videos I've ever seen
Yeah, I agree. That guy, DWade should have won at least 1 MVP.
He didn't deserve any
@@nameless8435 D-Wade won 2 MVPs back to back
@@loganblack4885 no he didn’t bruh
The open shot being the harder one instead of contested is pretty accurate for me too. I tend to overthink my shot when it is open most of the time leading to a silly miss. But pulling up a heavy contested one is also a bad shot selection so Imma go with the lightly contested shot where the defender is closing in but you still have enough space to shoot the ball.
Maybe his adrenaline kicks in on very contested shots, like when everyone's eyes are on him.
DWade is killing it on the Cavs this year
?
@@grievous5243It's a joke. Look at the Cavs roster.
That was truly amazing. D-Wade a gentlemen. Never'd expected that.
He answered with pure precision. Super knowledgeable and legendary player. 🙌
yes please bring more sports content, bring back dwyane for another episode!
Niceee video!! I love his answer to traveling hahaha and how it’s hard to play a roll when you are such a talented player
His spin dunk on ibaka was top 10 as well. Being that ibaka was the rim protector that he was at the time.
I love it when professionals talk their trade.
the fact that he said so KD so quickly says a lot
Everybody knows kd the hardest to guard 😂bro is a literal cheat code
Thank you for being honest about traveling calls. Respect, DWade.
One of many reasons I could never take the NBA seriously.
This was great! D-Wade is the man!
DUDE I LOVE HOW LEVEL HEADED YOU ARE! FOR BEING A SUPER STAR YOU ARE VERY DOWN TO EARTH!
Favorite player of all time.
I didn’t know about this space; very entertaining, a nice way to keep yourself around us…thanks!
8:52 talking real-life physics (attack and momentum). Love It!
Hearing him pronounce his own first name is always interesting
love DWADE man… everyone who knows me knows I’m a Dwade fanboy. my wish is to meet him once in my life.
this guy is a legend! we need more of wade!
and about the mvp, probably, you should also have to consider jerry west, chris paul and isiah thomas.
Loved this one
I love this. Dwayne is a GOAT. Love that guy
Very well spoken, top 5 SG of all time fosho!
Need more lil uzi type beats
@Grum he’s 3rd not even debatable
@Grum if they would’ve won that 2011 title he would’ve won FMVP

Would love to see more of this
I could listen to him talk about basketball for hours man, what an awesome video
Love how he is humble in his answers
I miss the Legendary historic all time great D Wade playing on the Hardwood!!
Dw explaining the dunk on andy v is awesome
Very good and funny videos bring a great sense of entertainment!
Said it once saying it again. Top 3 sg of all time
Imagine asking a question in 2013 and getting an answer today
i love dwyane wade.
i dont know if i ever heard any1 pronounce his first name like that because i also dont think ive ever heard him ever introduce himself
i love this bit 1:19 when he slumped LOL
i love how he answered sooooo in detail, like everything was so genuine and well thought out.
i'd like to see more, i am even inclined to read the book he was adverting at the end LOL.
on the last question, when dwade was talking about hardwork getting to that "level", i noticed he was pointing backwards as he been through that done that and was mad humble about it. idk just a little detail i noticed.
How do you break someone's ankles in basketball?
Go underneath a jumpshooter
Dwayne Wade seems like a very intelligent individual. He is very articulate in his answers, and seems very knowledgeable
I really really enjoyed hearing him talk game.
man, I can't love dwade more than I already do. Such a cool guy.
Id like to see d wade as an nba coach someday, dont know if he can handle the job but i want him too that or become part of a show or something like shaq, maybe lead a future show like that with Lebron Carmelo and chris paul? that sound fun.
Shout out to D-Wade’s barber 🙌🏽
i need more of this
7:35 He's right.. "The Truth" is the best nickname ever
