Udonis Haslem takes a defensive stance to cover the slandering made by Paul Pierce against his former Miami Heat teammate in Dwyane Wade.
On Instagram, Haslem commented on the exact video that flashes Pierce’s rant and reasoning on why he’s better than Wade.
Pierce subjected himself again in basketball chatters upon claiming that he’s a much superior player than Wade, claiming that he would have won even more titles if he got the supporting cast of the former star shooting guard during his playing days.
Wade managed to play with Shaquille O’Neal for 3 ½ seasons in the Heat, but he was the absolute main man in all of their partnered years especially in 2006 wherein he powered Miami for their first-ever title and ultimately won the Finals MVP.
He also went on to win two more titles during the Heat’s “Big Three” era alongside prime LeBron James and Chris Bosh. That time, Wade openly took the Robin role to allow James’ blossoming and full seizing of his prime.
The side of Pierce, was only able to obtain strong help when the Celtics went all in to acquire Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen. They were supposed to dominate and build a dynasty for themselves, but plenty of unfortunate circumstances like age and injuries hindered them to stretch their 2008 NBA title.
