Not to complain, but its just funny how Wade had career highs and posted 37 points, 12 assists and 8 rebounds, a near triple-double. I was watching Sportscenter, he was not mentioned ONCE..not one time. And you would think someone with those stats would be on the front page of NBA.com....instead the bobcats and Jason Kapono were featured...anyways thats better, the more he's not shown, it'll just make people wonder. G
that's it exactly what I was thinking.... after Wade's game I was seraching on nba.com for him on the front, but jason kapono is on it?!! Wtf is up with that. Saying he shot 5 for 7.. BIG DEAL, Wade shot like 14 for 19!!!! Honestly the kid never gets any limelight... I know he kinda likes it that way so he can sneak up on everyone, but atleast once in awhile he should be able to get some fame, especially after his monster game.
Don't worry...they do this to alot of really good players with great performances. That's why I call them BSPN.

I know that's funny but I'm used to it. How many times wade and the Heat were featured at all last year? ESPN or rather BSPN only showed commercial and popular players like LeBron and Melo last year and that's why i had to subscribe for NBA league pass. Now I don't have to beg ESPN to show me my favorite player and actually never turned channel to ESPN anyways. Screw ESPN.
Well their's so much hype around the team now, so they will be featured because their's a lot of nationally televised games. Anyways, Wade is on the frontpage of NBA.com for earning POW honours.

Wade will get his recognition because Shaq is now on the team and he will eventually shine through on the television screens of "middle America" when the games are broadcast on ABC or TNT or whatever. He was barely recognized last year after his great stats in the playoffs so that pretty much sums up that most of these sports channels go for the highest grossing stories (in that case- Lakers vs. The World) rather than focusing on a rookie who was stepping up and leading his team. A rookie who was virtually unknown before the playoff run. Now, even with all these great stats, he still isn't being recognized like he should be but the recognition will come in due time. He just needs to continue playing superb.
That's what I was thinking. Wade had an awesome game and noone made a big deal of it. But If that had happened to Rip Hamilton or rasheed wallace there woulld be a whole 30 min on it. (no offense pistons fans)
