Dwayne Wade is by far the most entertaining player in the NBA right now. Who will be better at the end of Wades career. Jordan or Wade? Honestly don't just say Jordan. Only answer if you've seen them both play.

I have seen both of these players play multiple times and right now I would definetly have to go with Jordan because of his ability to take over games in the fourth and just plain out dominate, I've seen this in Wade during the playoffs but not to such an extent, only Kobe and Tmac when he was healthy has possesed the same dominance that I've seen in Jordan. Wade on the other hand is more of a team player and like Jordan improves the players that play with him. There is no way you can put Wade before Jordan yet because Jordan won 6 titles in 8 years and Wade only has 1 and Jordan also has multiple other titles like MVP and Olympic Gold. Wade shows alot of promise and is delivering on his ability. Wade also dives after balls and is all over the court and is a huge presence on both sides.

At the end of Wade's career, I would say that Wade, in my opinion, will be the better player. Jordan averaged 30 points, 5 rebounds, and 6 assists. Wade averages around 29 points , 5 rebounds, and 8.2 assists. Wade is a much better passer and scores about the same as Jordan did. In 2005 when the Heat fell short to the Pistons, Wade averaged in the playoffs 30+points, 6+rebounds, and 9+assists. There's only been 2 other players in the history of the NBA who have done that in the playoffs. They were Magic Johnson and Oscar Robertson. See what I'm saying. Michael Jordan was an amazing scorer, but overall Wade is the better player. Jordan also had better players around him to help him win championships and a better coach (Phil Jackson). The Heat are a very old team. Now that the Heat have Pat Riley as their head coach, maybe Wade can get even better. All my life, I thought that Michael Jordan was overrated. His numbers weren't close to those of Wilt Chamberlain or Oscar Robertson. So why was he so overrated? Just because he made winning shots. Wade is and will be the better player when compared to Michael Jordan.

Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time. A phenomenal athlete…….he plays with grace, speed, power, artistry, and an avid competitive desire. But at the same time D Wade also possesses some of those same traits. Not to say that they are the same there can never be another Jordan but you have to recognize that Wade is still on a learning journey he still has a lot of growing to do and I believe that with time he will become an even better player. Statically D Wade is trailing behind Jordan………. but only by a few inches. Jordan is irreplaceable but I believe that Wade is well on his way.

I don't know if I agree with your first statement.
At the end of Wades career, Jordan.
Obviously.
You have to be some sort of alien or machine to be able to accomplish what Michael Jordan was able to accomplish, Wade is an amazing player, but he isn't a superhero.

Jordan is incomparable. 6 time champion, 6 Finals MVP, too may other accolades to name.
You say Bill Russell, Jordan, Magic in separate company.
Dwayne Wade, 1 championship, 1 Finals MVP, lots of potential. Lets see if he reaches it every year.
What separated Jordan was his drive every year, every season, every game.

Jordan because even when he had times that he was on teams with little depth, he found a way to win. Michael was probably the hardest player to defend at crunch time.
