Dwyane Wade - Supreme Shot Blocker
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- Dwyane Wade. 3x NBA champion. 2006 Finals MVP. 2x All-NBA First Team. 3x All-NBA Second Team. 3x All-NBA Third Team. 12x All-Star. 2010 All-Star Game MVP. 2009 scoring champion. 2008 Olympic Gold medalist. Miami Heat’s all-time leading scorer. 3x NBA All-Defensive Second Team. Dwyane Wade also stands at 6’4”, with 759 blocks for his career. The record for most career blocks by a player 6’4” or shorter was held by the late great Dennis Johnson, until Wade broke it with career block number 676. He is undoubtedly on of the greatest shot blocking guards the game has ever seen, his final year in Miami proving to be no exception. In the 2015-16 season, he registered the second most blocks for the Heat after Hassan Whiteside. Whether he’s Flash or Father Prime, Wade has always found a way to impress on the defensive end.
Wade’s placement among the best shooting guards of all-time has long been argued. Some say he’s the third best shooting guard all-time, easy. Some disagree. What cannot be questioned, however, is the elite nature of his shot blocking ability. For the regular season, Michael Jordan (6’6”) had 893 blocks. Kobe Bryant (6’6”) had 640 blocks. Clyde Drexler (6’7”) had 719 blocks. Again, Dwyane Wade (6’4”) has 759 blocks for his career so far. For reference, LeBron James (6’9”) has 773 blocks. These numbers get more interesting when the postseason rolls around. Dwyane Wade has more career playoff blocks (166) than Jordan (158), Kobe (144), and Drexler (108). Yes, defense isn’t all about blocked shots, or even measurable stats, but the fact that at his height, Wade was able to so heavily impact the game on that front must be worth praise.
I wanted to take a highlight some of Wade’s defensive abilities in his final year with Miami. I still cannot believe that the Heat organisation let him walk, but if there’s anywhere I wanted him to end up, well, let’s just say he’s somehow been one of the most beloved players in Chicago throughout his entire career despite eliminating the Bulls repeatedly in the playoffs. I love and have always loved Dwyane Wade’s game, so expect at least a few more videos on who I believe to be the third greatest shooting guard of all-time.
I know some of you will complain about this block or that block not being in this video, but these are the ones I could get, and format, and fix. This isn't comprehensive, not by a long shot, but it is meant to be fun, so let's soak it all up.

3rd Best Sg of all time and best Shot Blocking guard of all time
PressCAPLOCK john wall is in the discussion too
PressCAPLOCK Mj and wade are tied for that
PressCAPLOCK but wade is 6'4 so you gotta give him that
PressCAPLOCK Wades D > Jordans D
Sohailito hell no
Wade is the ultimate beast. He can score and defend like a monster. Even though he's older now, Chicago landed an awesome player in D-Wade.
uzernam3 John Wall is in the conversation tho
No, wall is a chase down blocker not great perimeter defender
he's not just a dynamic athlete, he's a true great shot-blocker. Notice in the later years he didn't have as much lift so stuffs the player at the start of the play. Clever, catquick on the ball defender.
Still my favorite player since 03’ till he retires. Dwade for life
Wade has some of the greatest plays ever!
I loved how loud staples center got when Kobe backed down wade , it was just so amazing
the only player can block kobe's fadeaway jumpshot multiple times.
@Michael Bonhomme AK47 :D
@@bryant475Hes like 6'10
Tracy Mcgrady did it a few times
Best shot blocking guard of all time.
Wade got more blocks in the playoffs tho
*****
What matters more, playoffs or regular season? Jordan has played 13 more playoff games than Wade too, and Wade still has more blocks.
*****
Well Jordan has played 217 more games and I'm sure Wade will beat him. But Wade is the better shot blocking guard imo and a lot of people's opinions.
*****
L
HeyItsUltra! Wade has nearly as many blocks in less games though.
Wade really got 4 blocks in under a minute vs Memphis 😂
Heat Nation and 3 on Tony Allen 😂that's why he only plays defense now lol
Career highs for total blocks in a season:
Kobe Bryant = 67 in '03
LeBron James = 93 in '09
Scottie Pippen = 101 in '90
Dwyane Wade = 106 in '09
Michael Jordan = 125 in '87 & 131 in '88
Dwayne has some of the most chaotic defensive plays I’ve ever seen. Phenomenal.
best defensive guard of all time
THE UNDERRATED DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF ALL TIME
Dwade is so great at blocking that he even block Dirk's shot
Thanks for the Hard Work and Upload.
Wade is the best player in my mind! Also the best Shooting Guard.
Best shot blocker ever its one thing to be 7ft and black smaller guys but to be 6ft 4 and average over a block a game for his career
Thanks for the Hard Work and Upload Evin Gualberto
Crazy timing and awareness.
haven't seen anyone block kobe's shot in the post whiling fading, my god wade explosiveness is in a league of its own
Man, Wade is a really mean defensive anchor. If Lebron had his demeanor, he would be far more scary than now.
Where is DWade's block on Carmelo going up for a dunk?
That one is in the playoff one (at least the most famous one) th-cam.com/video/2vvTZ1hcLdY/w-d-xo.html
And he never made an all nab defensive 1st team smh
because he is underrated its the fans who vote and its not accurate
beacause kobe always leads the vote mostly from fans. just the example in 2016 all star kobe shouldnt be in the starting 5 but because of the votes he gets
coaches chose defensive teams i think
Up until a few years ago, coaches voted for the all-defensive teams but weren't allowed to pick their players, so yeah, it was an atrocity by the league as a whole.
it makes no sense...wades was always over 2 steals and over 1 bock a game every season and top 10 in steals 6-7 times in his career...how did he not make a first team all defense yet kobe made 9 first teams and 3 2nd teams ?....the fuck?...especially hid 2012 season where he was just terrible at defense ....wade lost out on so many defensive teams and all nba teams its nuts...
Legend
His abnormal wingspan obviously helped but being 6’4” and to rack up as many blocks as he did in his career is insane. Elite IQ, hustle and fearlessness.
Wade 's instincts for blocks reminds me of MJ.
D. Wade = Beast
The best Rim protector at sg position.😎💪🔥
0:22 damn. You can even see duncan's left extending to push wade off.
The timing on that Howard block was spot on damn, could’ve been an easy foul but got clean with it
All round, Wade has been the best guard in the game for about 12 years now. Sorry but Kobe wasn't running down shots and swatting them in the third row. Like Lebron, DWade is also a freak of nature. The guy is built like a rock, size 15 feet, huge powerful hands, long arms, strong legs with amazing leaping ability for such a beefy guy. Wade is a true beast.
jerry allover yea prime Wade was definitely better than Kobe I thought
Prime Kobe > Prime Wade. You obviously didn't watch Kobe during his prime years. Kobe blocked every superstar in the NBA, including MJ. Go watch his shotblocking highlights. Kobe was also a fantastic on-ball defender as well
Kobe is very overrated. He came in hungry but he fell off years ago. Wade has really been the best guard in the game since he won his first piece of hardware. Kobe was the man before Wade came along. He didn't adjust to the modern game like Wade did. All of Kobes first teams belong to Wade. Kobe being better than Dwyane Wade is nonsense and this is coming from a fan of Kobe
jerry allover
You know nothing about basketball. You base your thesis about Kobe off of others' thesis
Kobes prime was against old timers back in those days. Kobe hasn't been that great for about 12 years. He forced shots and took everyone out the game. Kobe is the definition of over confidence and bad leadership.
This is so satisfying. Thank you.
Who’s here after DWade passed MJ for most all time blocks by a guard 🙏
This video is for the people that don't have wade behind Jordan and Kobe. 2 way player. Goat SG 3. Wade 4. Iverson 5. West
I love AI but I can't put him above West. AI is definitely in the conversation for that fifth shooting guard spot though with Clyde Drexler, Earl Monroe, and George Gervin the only other guys I would consider.
West over AI, easily.
West over Clyde Drexler???? Stop
The Dream Merchant You're really overrating Clyde lol
Clyde drexler over ai....west too...
Just a survey:
Who do you think is the best Big 3 of all time?
1 - MJ, Pip and Rodman
2 - Duncan, Parker, Ginobili
3 - LeBron, Wade, Bosh
4 - Pierce, Garnett, Allen
5 - LeBron, Kyrie, Love
6 - Durant, Westbrook, Harden
7 - Kareem, Magic, Worthy
8 - Durant, Curry, Klay
9 - Melo, Stoudamire, Chandler
10 - Westbrook, Melo, PG
11 - KAT, Butler, Wiggins
12 - Hakeem, Barkley, Drexler
(I can't think of anyone else please let me know if there's more)
From skill standpoint.
You seriously dont have bird, mchale, parish up there smh
Scouting report must have sucked to hear.
"Yea, he's the best pick and roll guy in the league, shoots the midrange like jordan, annnd might as well be 7 feet tall. But it will all look that much more embarrassing cause he's a 6'3 guard."
Keep sleeping on DWade if you want to. He is a Real Defensive player!
Dwade just passsd mj Now dwade is goat
DWYANE WADE COME TO THE NBA AND 2003 RIGHT to look at his career he did more damage than LeBron James Melo that's why I believe he better than any players that is playing basketball now day. we all understand that NBA use him and never given him what deserve even MJ SAY IT AS WELL
6:53 never seen such a coordinated block, stops the shot with one hand then swings the other for the block!
that swish was so beautiful I shed a tear
Dwade really inspires me to work in my game and become a better defender
Wade swat shots like hes trying to rip your head off with an uppercut🤣🤣🤣 jeez...wade county all day 😎😎
It's incredible how he knew how to defend without making a mistake
I can’t believe he’s never made all defensive first team and only made all defensive about 3 times 🤦🏾♂️
He got robbed in 09 and 2010
D-wade is the all time shot-blocking LEADER of SHOOTING guards!
Imagine if he's swinging at 6'9 - 6'10 with the same quickness, speed and overall skillset.
💫 Süper Star
This guy really was a SG/rim protector..#MV3
OMG, he's a monster. He's amazing. all i can say is : Derron Williams is not going to block anybody's shot for you
One of a kind
dayyuumm so many blocks haha
Best SG shotblocker of all time, IMO
420 Blazeit In this generation, yeah Wade is the best defensive SG but Michael Jordan > Dwayne Wade
jeremyunderground41 mj wasnt a better shot blocker than wade
@@jeremyunderground41 wade was blocking 7 footers constantly
he really blocked Dirk and Kobe's signature fadeaways. damn.
Even blocked Durants’ jumper as well
Who’s here after he broke the record?!?
3rd best SG all time.
Wade come back to Miami!!
Mannn Harden could never see this guy , Basketball is 2 sides of the floor
Feel bad for Tony Allen. Like, "Let me shoot!!".
First 3 blocks are against 2 best PG DRose and Curry and then Kobe
Great vid
Against the grizzlies 😆 7:56 7:39 7:34 7:04. Four blocks in under a minute. D Wade was crazy.
love it, he played like he had little man's syndrome and must destroy all the bigs.
@@metsrus 😄
And people want to compare Harden to D. Wade??? C'mon...
He was a better shot blocker than Lebron but of course the NBA & media chose to ignore it.
Ken Lim fuck no
Some say Dwade won't be able to win back to back title without lebron, but the truth is LeBron can't win without Dwade.
You missed some good ones but still a good vid
Bro I lost my count.......
That as clean 2:33
monster
bro he really swatting shit like flies lol
@0:44. Tony Parker. LOL!
Could you do an Al Jefferson low post repertoire? Would be great man
Daniel Del Bot Jerez I've actually been working on it...it won't be young Al Jeff, but still good I think. Expect it in the coming weeks!
Nice, appreciate it! I hope to see it soon!
Will McCoy formatting was an absolute nightmare but if anyone deserved that much effort, it's Wade and his shot blocking
0:19 SUPERIOR POST DEFENSE..I WISH THE WHOLE VIDEO HAD SEQUENCES LIKE THAT, CHASE DOWN BLOCKS IS EFFORT BUT THAT POSSESSION WAS COMMITMENT/DISCIPLINE/EXTINCT
6:03 Hmm on bd 😤
Andre Roberson defense video?
OneAnOnIy yea Robersons hella underrated
who' is he ? he's not even an nba player?
DW blocked kobe that much?…
郭逸 ikr
Yet another reason why comparing DWade to Harden is very disrespectful.
Kobes prime ended at 34 YEARS OLD 28 ppg , wades prime ended at 29 YEARS OLD 25-26 ppg...dipped every year afterwardS
2nd best 2 guard ever. If he shot as much as Kobe he would average as many points or more. Check the stats. Wade is far more efficient.
that's a fact I tell people that all the time
D Wade underrated
8:35>>>>>
2:54 to 3:05 chemistry at it’s finest
#1
monster block by sg lol
He has a 6’11 wingspan
1
6’3 and blocking shots like that
Wade is the 2nd best SG of all time, Kobe is 3rd... his prime is short. 2006-2009 season he played very well but Miami Heat is suck that few seasons...
6:14 That's what you call a BLOCK! A legit block, not those chasedown bullshit!
this makes him better than kobe for me
Its a crime that he only has 3 all defensive selections
He was insane but not as popular as kobe so kobe and others would always get the nod
Marcus Smart for example won DPOY and his defense is a joke compared to D Wades
now n days these would all be called as a foul lol
People really think harden better than wade smh
Where’s the block on Melo dunk in NY lol
Ray Allen is a Dwade block most victim 😂
Who’s watching this after d wade took Michael Jordan for number 1 shot blocking guard?
Almost are blocking from behind, it's easier than blocking in front of
phung86 do it then let us see.
Getting blocked behind constantly will have you second guessing your shot
If that's "easy", name other 6'4 or lower guys in NBA HISTORY getting LOTS of blocks from behind. Or 7 footers. We'll wait.
This man blocked all-time great scorers and post players lol
volleyball
Wade >Bron
I wouldn't say best shotblocking guard ever. MJ gets even that. I've seen some spectacular defending from MJ, and some immense shotblocking, and his era had tons of physical athletic players. He's also simply got better numbers in his prime BPG than Wade.
I grew up watching MJ and he wasn't blocking shots like this.
MJ was the better overall defender but wade probably has the edge in just shot blocking. Not taking anything away from MJ cuz he was a great shot blocker too but wade is just absurd
Your out of your mind... just look at some of the names he's blocked.
Kobe Bryant
Dwight Howard
Derrick Rose
Stephen Curry
Dirk Nowitski
Tim Duncan
Steve Nash
that's not even 1/2 of them bro.
HTTR bro facts LeBron James just join Dwade's Block party list, there no way u can say MJ was better in that category.. now to say MJ is the goat is a diffrent story, but if we are talking most prolific shot blocker of all time at the 2gaurd, Wade tops that list & will for a while.
NitoTheKid had lebron reaching for his face ready to flop lol
