Wade scores 22 points in loss to Bulls
Dwyane Wade - G - Miami Heat
Jan. 5, 2013 - 4:35 AM ET
Dwyane Wade scored 22 points on 7-of-11 shooting (1-of-1 from deep, 7-of-9 from the line) with three rebounds, four assists, and two steals in the Heat's 96-89 loss to the Bulls on Friday.
Most of Wade's numbers are in the right place this season, but his decreases in defensive stats are what is really holding him back. He is averaging 1.3 steals and 0.6 blocks per night, which is down from 1.7 and 1.3 last season, respectively. Chris Bosh scored 14 points with five assists, one steal, and two blocks, but had just five rebounds in his worst season on the glass since his rookie year.
