Yes. People forget that the Grizzlies took OKC to 7 with Westbrook, Harden and Durant all healthy. I doubt that they win that series, minus Westbrook, even if Harden is there over Martin.
You don't care that their return on a trade that sent a 23 year old perennial all-star was more than likely one year of Kevin Martin, Lamb and the 12th pick in a bad draft?
But it was okay when he was better at basketball. Wade in his 2nd, 3rd, and 4th years in the league was A-may-zing. No longer.
His post game will (should) continue to improve. I think he has two more seasons before he starts losing explosiveness off the dribble. He's clearly in his prime. If he's better the next two seasons than he was this year, it will be at the margins.
Sacramento's new owners are already babbling about "changing the culture" of that franchise. If I'm Pat Riley, as soon as my team's season ends I offer to help him do that by proffering Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh for Tyreke Evans and Demarcus Cousins.
