Zaire Wade is my new hero. He sent his dad, Dwyane Wade, one of the most inspiring text messages ever written in the history of mankind before his game on Tuesday. Okay maybe I’m a little emotional, but that’s the effect it had on me.
Check it out the transcript from The Miami Herald:
“Hey man, you won’t get this message until after your game but i wanna say sum. These last few away games I have been watching to see if I can help you with anything. In the game you struggled you of course shot bad from the (field). The games you played good you got to the bucket. Last night vs. the Bulls was I (think) your best game of the season. When you are attacking the rim that causes (the) defense to suck in and opens up and ones for you, wide open treys for your teammates or etc… all I’m saying is stay on attack mode big dog. When you attack they will play you with a lil extra room so that’s when u use that killa instinct and shoot your midrange. And stop being so hard on yourself, most important play for a passion. It seems your playing like someone is making you. No go out there and play like it’s your last game of the season and give it all and trust your teammates.”
Zaire Wade is on some grown man stuff. Calling his dad ‘man’ is the best thing I’ve seen in a long time. And ‘say sum’ is being forced into my vocabulary as we speak.
Move over Riley Curry, Zaire Wade is here.
