But nothing I haven't seen other players get. But it's perfectly fine to act as if Wade is the player player to have ever benefitted from the no call.

EDIT: I'm actually leaning towards 3, because it appeared that he had jumped up to catch the ball and he was just coming down. But that was cut out of the video (with good reason).

Double EDIT: Naw. Looks like 4.


So you're agreeing with the original point that Wade took at least 4 steps there. Thank you for arguing yourself right into what most of us here already knew.

Nobody said Wade is the only person to get away with it and frankly it's pretty embarrassing for you to claim that's the opinion of anyone. The point is he gets away with it a lot more than anybody else.
