Sħãlïq™ Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 Wade says best is yet to come for LeBron MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- All LeBron James has done so far this year is win the NBA's MVP award for the third time, an NBA Finals MVP trophy to go along with that one, his elusive first championship and a second Olympic gold medal. Dwyane Wade thinks his Miami Heat teammate is just getting started. With the start of Heat training camp now just six weeks away, Wade said on Friday that he expects James to be even better this coming season now that the will-he-ever-win-a-championship question has been forever put to rest. "That monkey is off his back and now he's just playing basketball," Wade said while taking a break from his annual fantasy camp, where fans pay up to $12,500 to get a four-day luxury taste of NBA life. "I think we'll see a better LeBron James - scary to say, three-time MVP - than we've seen. And it's because all he has to do is play basketball now. He doesn't have to worry about what he hasn't done. It'll always be something, but he's got the biggest one off his back." Wade was a James fan instead of a James teammate this summer, when the U.S. men's basketball team won its second straight Olympic gold. Wade could not play while recovering from knee surgery but was in London for part of the Olympic tournament, and he said James made playing at a high level - such as a triple-double against Australia in the quarterfinal round - seem "effortless." It's been that way for a while, too.Full Story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChosenOne Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 question is, will we see a better wade? Well there were points where he couldn't get much worse, so I'd say yes. And with Germanys track record he should do a lot better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
