    that was charge. He should have also got a technical for showing up the ref after Battier blocked his shot.

    That should be an offensive foul on Wade. They showed replay twice, I didn't see any dirty stuff from Battier.

    Wade is just unfortunate that his injury was caused by Battier's defense.

    That's what I thought, and given the history, I don't blame him. Nice game last night by Bats, BTW.

    So true. He's a great defender that doesn't have to resort to dirty tactics like an Artest or Bruce Bowen.

    Wade was quite obviously kidding around. Knowing that Battier was the guy he bumped when he got hurt last year, and getting a little banged up against him this year, he was just joking and saying "If I keep playing against this guy, I'll get hurt again." He was just having fun.

    Hehe, like any thread about Wade, the subject will always shift to the refs and their dumbass calls. Personally, I felt that the Heat got a lot of calls they shouldn't have. The game should have been over in the 2nd Q, but man, the refs gave them a lot of breaks.

    looks who's talking, MR. I'll yell like a little girl when I drive into the paint so i can get a foul call !!! :mad: oh and when Wade refuse to give the REF the ball ..that should have been a TECH...this just shows he gets special treatment...if that were anyone else that would be a technical
