Wade s choice: Data? Or champion? A harsh word to tear open the essential gap with Harden?

The regular season has not started during the NBA offseason, so news about many players is constantly fermenting. Among them, the most eye-catching one should be the historical status comparison between James Harden and Dwyane Wade. Obviously, Wade, the third-point guard in history, has always been the outside world, and does not want people to think that he is inferior to Harden.

In a recent interview, Wade talked about his sacrifices in his career to compete for the championship. When comparing Harden's career, Wade emphasized the importance of the championship to the player's historical status.

Wade said: "If I don't care about winning the championship, my data can be more."

There is no doubt that Wade does not recognize Harden as a better player than him. Wade pointed out that Harden performed well in data, but without the support of the championship, which made him slightly inferior in his historical position.

Many people discussed Wade's evaluation. Some people recognized the more important statement that Wade's championship was, while others felt that Harden had stronger suppression in personal honor and data levels.

So, who is the better point guard in Wade or Harden's career so far?

Let's analyze and evaluate it carefully.

Harden and Wade win each other's honors.

Harden has had many honors in his career so far, such as the second team of the Best Rookie, the Sixth Man, the Third Team of the Best Team, the regular season MVP, the 3 NBA scoring champion, the 2 NBA assist king, the 6 All-Star team, the 11 All-Stars, and the 75 superstar in the NBA.

Of course, the personal honor that can make Harden beat Wade the most is his regular season MVP in the 18 season, three scoring champions and two assists champions.

And Wade's personal honor is second, 3 championships, 1 Finals MVP, 3 Best Defensive Team Second Team, 1 NBA Scoring King, 13 NBA All-Stars, 1 NBA All-Star MVP, 8 NBA All-Stars (2 First Team, 3 Second Team, 3 Third Team), 2 consecutive NBA All-Star Skill Challenge Championship, and NBA 75 Superstar.

Compared with Harden, Wade's honorary lead lies in his three championships and one finals MVP, and his personal honorary defense has three best defensive lineups.

So, this is also why Wade thinks he is better than Harden, and he thinks the championship data is absolutely important.

Moreover, Wade made it very confidently that he sacrificed his personal data for the championship, and it was not impossible.

So, is Wade's confidence groundless?

Objectively speaking, not.

Harden's peak durability suppressed Wade, but his scoring efficiency was far inferior at his peak.

Harden was in the "growth period" of the Thunder in the first three years of his career. By the third year of his career, he scored more than 15 points, and the Rockets gave him the core position and unlimited firepower completely catalyzed him.

In the 11 seasons of his subsequent career, his average score per game has never been lower than 20 points. From the three seasons of 18-20, Harden averaged 30+ points per game, but in terms of shooting percentage, Harden is far inferior to Wade, and Harden has the highest shooting percentage in one season with only 46.6%.

And what about Wade?

His peak time was nearly 3 years less than Harden. In the 0204-05 season, Wade made 77 appearances in the second grade, averaging 24.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 6.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 1 block, with a shooting percentage of 47.8%.

In the next five years, Wade's single-season scoring data reached a maximum of 30.2 points and won the score, with a minimum of 24.6 points. There were two 27+ and once 26..6 points. The most terrifying thing is that his lowest personal efficiency season was 46.9%.

However, although Wade's peak duration is less, his peak season is actually no worse than Harden, and he is even more than that.

The 08-09 season was Wade's peak, with averaging 30.2 points, 7.5 assists, 5 rebounds, 2.1 steals, 1.3 blocks, 3.4 turnovers, and a shooting percentage of 49.1%. He won a scoring champion with historical scorers such as James, Kobe, Anthony, and Nowitzki at the peak.

Harden averaged 36.1 points, 6.6 rebounds, 7.5 assists, 2 steals, 0.7 blocks and 5 turnovers at the peak of the 19 season. It can be seen that his terrifying scoring explosive power, but his shooting percentage was only 44.2%, which still seemed slightly inferior.

Although Harden averaged about 6 points higher than that of Wade, his scoring efficiency was far inferior to Wade, and his overall turnover rate was higher than that of Wade, and he could not surpass Wade in defensive data.

So, in terms of efficiency and offensive and defensive balance, Wade still has to suppress Harden.

Although the Rockets, the third in the Western Conference in the 19th season, ranked fifth in the Eastern Conference in the 2009th season, considering the overall salary and the gap in player lineup between the two teams, this difference is actually not enough to show that Wade's leadership is even worse.

Wade is indeed ahead in the "hard" aspect of the playoffs. The

playoff performance shows why the two sides have a gap in shooting percentage.

Harden's data level in the playoffs has never been the same as the regular season, and most of them have plummeted in scoring and shooting percentage, not to mention that like Wade, there will always be a state where the playoff data will increase instead of decreasing.

This obviously shows the difference in confrontation between the two sides under high intensity pressure.

In other words, Harden is indeed "soft" than Wade.

Of course, this does not mean that Harden's performance is very bad. In fact, Harden's playoff score data with the Nets during the Rockets was still at the forefront of the league. The reason why he was conservative was that his shooting percentage was only around 40%, which seemed inefficient, which was too different from the "brave" of the regular season.

Unlike Harden's regular season "explosion", many people's recognition of Wade's personal abilities should be mostly due to his "performance" on the playoff stage.

05 season playoffs, Wade scored 27.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, 6.6 assists, and his shooting percentage was 48.4%;

06 season playoffs, Wade scored 28.4 points, 5.9 rebounds, 5.7 assists, 2.2 steals, 1.1 blocks, and his shooting percentage was 49.7%, winning the championship;

09 season playoffs, Wade scored 10.8 points, Haslem 10+8, rookie Beasley and 4+ per game. O'O of 5 and Marion, who had 12 points, fought with the Hawks with this deformed lineup for 7 games, averaging 29.1 points, 5 rebounds, 5.3 assists per game, and a shooting percentage of 43.9%;

Wade's biggest helper was Charmos, Beasley, a second-year-old, lost to the Big Three Celtics 1:4 in the first round of the playoffs, but Wade averaged 33.2 points, 5.6 rebounds, 6.8 assists per game, and his shooting percentage was 56.1%, which beat the Celtics' backcourt, and his terrifying strength was undoubtedly revealed.

There is no doubt that in most seasons at the peak of his career, Wade's data has gone further than the regular season under the high pressure of the playoffs, especially in the 10-season playoffs, facing the terrifying three Celtics, which can be regarded as Wade's peak performance. In the playoffs of

2, while ensuring rebounds and assists, Wade still averaged more than 22 points per game, but this is also his final peak.

Wade's peak lasted until the 12th season playoffs. Wade's knee was uncomfortable and the head coach arranged for him to rest, but for the sake of the game, he drew knee fluid in advance so that he could help the team. In the subsequent 13 and 14 seasons, Wade suffered from chronic arthritis. Although he was fighting, his injuries destroyed his explosive power.

In other words, Wade sacrificed his recovery time for the championship and his knees. Otherwise, his personal condition would likely last for several more seasons, which is why he dared to say that he sacrificed his personal data for the championship.

Wade's phenomenal performance back then also shocked everyone.

Harden is not as balanced as Wade in terms of personal style.

Although Harden is more "stunning" than Wade in terms of three-pointers and passes, Wade is still better in terms of efficiency and attacks. One is the commander who can charge and the other is the sharp knife player who can base himself on the overall perspective.

Wade is more efficient and Harden is more explosive.

So, from the offensive perspective, it is difficult to say which of the two wins and who loses, but at the defensive level, Wade at the peak is not losing to any other shooting guard.

But in terms of key goals, Wade has a good psychological quality. The more he plays at a critical moment, the better he plays, while Harden is slightly weak.

So, in terms of leadership temperament, Wade is a better choice. Objectively speaking, Wade's ability to lead the team is not bad. At Wade's peak in the 2007-10 season, the teammates he led were really unsightly. For example, Chalmos, who averaged 10.8 points per game, was the team's second breakup, and O'Neal, who averaged 4+5 points per game, was the starting center.

Therefore, the media basically unanimously commented that the Heat is a Lotto team.

But with Wade, the Heat can always be active in the front line of the playoffs, which shows his strength in leading the team.

And in personal defense, Wade is definitely ahead of more than a little bit.

Thanks to the excellent football dealer, Harden has a good steal level, but he has not broken through the blocks once per game, which is far from Wade.

Putting aside the same excellent steal data, Wade is the most blocked defender in history.

In defense, he can keep up with his opponent's pace, interfere with his opponent at all times, and he will not suffer any losses in physical confrontation, and is also good at assisting defense. The most terrifying thing is that his defense at critical moments is impressive, and he often puts his opponent's hats without knowing where to fly out.

So, overall, Wade said that he was stronger than Harden, and he did not speak loudly.

Wade chose the championship among data and championships, and he is essentially different from Harden.

Objectively speaking, if Harden cannot win a championship trophy at the end of his career, then he will not even be able to compare with Wade, who has three championships.

Although Wade is slightly inferior in terms of personal data and honors, considering his personal offense and defense intensity in the playoffs and his team honor bonus, he is definitely qualified to be the third-point guard in history.

Harden needs to work hard to improve his historical status.
