Flash a-ah, Savior of the Universe! Flash a-ah, he’ll save every one of us. Flash a-ah, he’s a miracle. Flash a-ah, King of the impossible. -Queen
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! Crash Davis believes Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. Crash Davis believes there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. Crash Davis believes in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve. In this here NBA, I believe two things. I believe LeBron James is the best basketball player on the planet and I believe Dwyane Wade is the MVP. I believe my humor’s wearing thin and I believe the poles are shifting. On your honor.
What a year Flash is having. A very good year. A very good year for small town girls and soft summer nights, we’d hide from the lights. A very good month too. Last night, D-Wade scored forty-two big points. That gives him 505 big points in fifteen games in March. That gives D-Wade an average of 33.7 points per game. That gives D-Wade the most points by an NBA player in a one month since Kobe Wan scored 525 (in only 13 games) back in ’07. Yowza!
It doesn’t stop there. Oh, no. Wade finished March with 119 assists, an average of 7.9 per game. Only three other players in NBA history have ever played at least fifteen games in a month with averages in those categories as high as Wade’s. Only Allen Iverson, Nate Tiny Archibald (twice) and only Oscar Robertson (three times). How about that?
Want more? Want more before I show you the door? More numbers you’re looking for? Flash made 50.1 of his field goals in March. The last player to have a month in which he made at least half of his field goals while scoring at least 500 points with 100 or more assists was none other than His Airness himself. It was none other than Michael Jordan back in ‘92. The night may belong to lovers but March belongs to Dwyane Wade
Public Spectacle:
Peace out homies. Six two and Even!
Need More? Dwyane Wade, Miami Heat, NBA
