Dwyane Wade

Re: Dwyane Wade

Are you serious? Stern will just make a mandate that any player within 10 feet of Wade gets a foul whistled on him and an automatic 2 shots.

the lane will part like the red sea.

Re: Dwyane Wade

I think it is very foolish on Wade's part to come back without surgery. Too young and too good to take this kind of risk with your career.

Or, he quickly realized that the shoulder was not as bad as he thought it was originally when he required a wheelchair and subsequent stretcher.

I would like to know why there was not a foul called on that play though...

he doesnt need surgery. just a 2 to 3 week rehab

I was under the impression he either can have surgery or "try" and rehab it and see if he can come back. So the injury is not severe enough to require surgery at all in any case?

i might be wrong, but ive heard that surgery shouldnt be required for his particular injury. "just" rehab.

Re: Dwyane Wade

If I recall correctly, he can rehab his shoulder to play through the season/playoffs but he WILL HAVE surgery at the end of the season to fully heal the shoulder.

Re: Dwyane Wade

You are correct Leon. That is the plan. He is going to rehab in an attempt to come back but its not guaranteed that he is. It depends on how well the rehab goes and if he has enough confidence in the shoulder after that to return.

yall might be right but rehab would be a lot longer than 2-3 weeks if it were an injury requiring surgery (actually regular rehab without requiring surgery is usually longer than 2-3 weeks , its more like 10 weeks but athletes heal quicker) He didnt tear anything. It was a dislocation or subluxation and his shoulder is back in place...the process for that is to let it heal and rehab.

i seriously doubt he will have surgery unless he has another subluxation or dislocation after he starts back playing. or maybe yall are right and they will do surgery later just to increase the odds that it wont happen again. but surgery is not required for something like this to heal. It would probably just be a precautionary measure.

but imo if the Heat and their doctors thought that it was very possible the injury would recur (or if there were any ligament or nerve damage) i doubt the conservative organization would allow their investment to go back to playing after only a 2-3 week rehab. and also, what they are saying in the press is probably quite a bit different than what they are saying behind close doors

Re: Dwyane Wade

I dislocated my shoulder playing football, same type of thing. It popped out and went back in. It hurt like hell though, but I didnt need a wheelchair. low blow.

Surgery never came up with my doctors. I was scheduled to be out something like 7-8 weeks though. I ended up coming back after 5. So 2-3 weeks does seem quick.

weird

Re: Dwyane Wade

If he somehow comes back after 2 or 3 weeks, tough and D-Wade should never be mentioned in the same sentence.

Re: Dwyane Wade

Stop hating Mavs fans. If he comes back and is his old self I can only see 2 teams in the east competig with the west, and these are Heat and Pistons.

Re: Dwyane Wade

If he can come back and not get that shoulder hurt again, I'll be amazed. Hopefully he'll be fine, but I'm thinking he should possibly just do the surgery, the Heat might just get themselves in too big a hole in the next 2-3 weeks anyways.

Re: Dwyane Wade

Just thought i could shed a little light on the medical side of this subject. I've dislocated my shoulder last season in AAU ball and said no to surgery and did rehab too. Basically for the first week your arm is completely unusable, you keep it in your sling and just rest. Then you start light physiotherapy, you use tension bands, simple motions. But you don't have full rotational ability in your arm.

I mean i know alot depends on how many ligaments you tore in your shoulder when you dislocated and such but in my case after about 4 weeks i could shoot a ball again, but to play competitively took about another week because you have to mentally get yourself into it and thats definitely the hardest part.

Also when you dislocate your shoulder once your 90% likely to dislocate it again, but when it happens after the first time the ligaments in your rotator cuff aren't healed so it doesn't hurt as much and is easier to replace. At the same time continuous dislocation is dangerous and can be degenerative so eventually surgery is a necessary option for most to completely get the shoulder back into the socket.

Did you need a wheelchair and a stretcher? Just curious...

Re: Dwyane Wade

Not at all. Teammate drove me to the hospital. But, the pain is really bad almost unbearable. But the wheelchair was excessive and the stretcher stupid.
