    I would take under. Take my chances with a banged up Wade sliding below 20 ppg.

    I have the O16.5 +100 as well. Hit it just before it went down to -125.

    But were 'match-ups' really the reason he was struggling? Seemed to me like it was partly due to his injury and partly him just not playing any intensity until game 7.

    I think the latter aspect can obviously be overcome, but if a big reason is that he is simply just injured, its hard to imagine him averaging that is possible, regardless of match-ups.

    This.

    Wade will average 10-12ppg IMO.

    He probably will. Spurs don't have great individual defenders, and Kawhi will spend most of his time on LeBron. Wade should get a favorable matchup against Green/Neal/Ginobili.

    Expectations for Wade have dropped so much. I've seen some people give him a pass for last night's 17-pt gm. It wasn't too long ago when it was a custom for Wade to go for 20-25 each game, with a 30+ pt game every now and then. A 17pt game against the Spurs is not good. Spurs have let mediocre wings like Harrison Barnes and Quincy Pondexter have huge games so far, 17pts is not enough in my book.

    For the first half he did. Didn't even notice him in the second half.

    He also had the worst +/- numbers for Miami yesterday, -11.

    If the series goes 6 or 7, which it probably will, I don't think he will average 20 or more

    He isn't going to average over 20. Before the series started I thought he would, but watching him in a game and a half of this series, there little chance he averages 20. He may not score 20 in any single game.

    I think he meant Wade will score at least 20 points in one game this series...

    He's looked better in this series than he did vs Indiana

    Obvious before series he wouldn't sniff 20 ppg

    This is not the wade of old

    Wade 16 points game 3. Going to need a big effort or two to get that 20ppg avg.

    Didnt Wade have 12 in the first half? He scored only 4 in the second. Pathetic effort.

    Wade won't score 20+ in any game in these finals. The Spurs are laying 10 feet off of him and begging him to shoot the brick shots. Wade won't even attempt a jumpshot. All he can do now is try to fake guys into the air and pray he gets a foul called. The refs aren't falling for his bullshit flops, so don't look for him to put up big numbers.

    Goat should have taken Gary Neal or Danny Green props but he would have bet the under on them anyway. Isn't he the most predictable poster at SBR?

    Another good first quarter for Wade. Can he sustain it over the course of the game tonight?

    He looks good tonight. He's playing with confidence. Heat will win if he keeps it up.

    Wade is playing defense the way he used to. Among the quickest hands in the league he always used to get steals like this. And he used to block shots better than anyone in the league for a guard.

    He's officially back. Not a coincidence that Wade's best game happens to be the Heat's best game.

    You could tell from the very beginning of tonight's game that he was going to play well because he was getting after it on defense.

    Guys do you think there's any chance he gets MVP?

    Half of my "Heat series" bet is actually Bron to win MVP

    Lebron gets it unless Wade goes off again.

    If it goes 6 I need Wade to average 13 in the next 2.
    If it goes 7 I need Wade to average 14 in the next 3.

    Should cash...

    Trying to remember the last time the Big 3 combined for 80+ pts. Heat are unstoppable when all 3 of them are on their game.
