<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Frank remarks from R.J. Richard Jefferson Lawrence Frank might not want to read Richard Jefferson's latest blog on NBA.com. The Nets guard suggested yesterday that the Nets should have put Jason Kidd on Miami's Dwyane Wade earlier than Game 5, when Kidd helped hold Wade to 21 points in the Nets' series-ending defeat. "Dwyane Wade is very good, but I think we could have done some things differently," Jefferson said in the blog. "We have a first team All-Defensive player in Jason Kidd, but we didn't have him guarding Wade to start off games. The most competitive game was when we had J-Kidd guarding Wade."</div> I agree but it doesn't matter now.
It didn't really matter who gaurded Wade. Kidd got burned but besides that, Wade was just dominating, though I realized something about Wade that takes away my respect for him. His entire cross over is a carry. He palms the ball from one spot to another really quickly. Sure the officials won't call it, but it's the reason why defenders get clowned. It's kinda sad.
A lot of players in the NBA these days do carry here and there. But entire cross over is a carry? every time? Please.
