Dwyane Wade Guys Quotations

Third preseason game, and coach looked like he coached the end of the season. Guys are putting their heads down already.

Third preseason game, and coach looked like he coached the end of the season, ... Guys are putting their heads down already.

We came out early, hard from the start, ... We didn't want to give a team any confidence in our building. I think it all starts with me. So I tried to come out tonight and attack. Hopefully my guys followed and it did.

We've got enough firepower to win without him. If one person goes down, the other guys have to step up.

We lost a great teammate. But I was also excited because the guys coming in can help us get to where we need to go, and that's to win a championship.

It's a totally different situation. I have other guys on my team.

I feel good. We have a three-game winning streak and guys are playing good. Shaq and myself are getting into the flow. It is giving us confidence.

We played into their hands by helping so much and letting shooters like Jones and Bell and guys like that hit some awfully big shots.

No matter what, if it was going right or wrong, or guys were tired, we still got the job done. It's a beautiful thing to see guys come into their roles.

It's kind of scary where he's at right now, at 21 years old and the way he dominates games. If I didn't know him, I would be surprised (by his development). He's one of the most level-headed guys I've ever met, and he has a will to be the best.

He's a big guy and anytime he gets injured it's a lot of weight that goes down on it. We have enough firepower that when one guys goes down the other guys can step up.

Guys know what they need to do, but at the same time, I think they're still trying to understand what coach Riley wants them to do.

It's feeling a little better. I got out there with the guys and moved around a little bit. I plan on playing even though it's a little sore.

Our continuity is still good. Of course, there was a little rust and we had a lot of anxiousness. But guys played with a lot of energy.

Coach told us to come in and play well on our home floor. Teams that you're supposed to beat, you've got to beat them. That's what we did tonight. At the same time, having a big lead and guys having the opportunity to rest was big also.

We got a couple of guys in foul trouble and Coach continued to rest us and let the reserves come in. They played good, but the Bulls really wanted it.

Some games it's just guys have open shots and they take them, and when they miss it looks worse.

I'm just trying to do what I can to help this team. We'll get back into it. Other guys will get back into the flow. It's a bump in the road.

You have a quick first step, guys can't put their hands on you. I know we like it. But on the opposite end, the same thing. When you are guarding a great player, you can't touch.

It helps us with our one-on-one game, especially guys that have quick first steps.

We're going to miss Eddie a lot, the defense he brought and the way he chased guys around the court. I want to see who's going to do that.

Maybe I got hurt for a reason - to bring these guys here and we all celebrate together over on Biscayne Bay one day,

It's just about getting the ball around the area of the rim. Some guys hit some shots, we all do, that you just throw up and it goes in. But most of the time you're trying to get it around the area of the rim and give it a chance. You never know what can happen if you get it on the backboard.

It's all a win-now philosophy. We've got some old guys on this team. Gary (Payton) ain't got five, six more years left. Shaq ain't got five, six more years left. That is the reason the trade was made. We'd be kidding ourselves if we thought the trade was for us to grow together for the next three years. No, it's not. We understand that.
