With the new NBA season in full swing, most teams seem to be in the right mindset and are performing extremely well. Many believe that this season is going to be one of the most exciting seasons of the decade. Many young NBA players who have now become veterans, and the entry of incredible new talent, have been making this season very entertaining to watch.

In a recent social media post, Dwayne Wade posted a hilarious comment amid a raging NBA season discussion.

In a recent Instagram post, the “Ballislife” page (which is famous for posting basketball content) discusses the potential ‘Sixth Man of the Year’ winners.

The post named four NBA players and their highlight plays from the new season. The NBA players mentioned in the post were Chris Paul (GSW), Cam Thomas (Brooklyn Nets), Malik Monk (Sacramento Kings), and Immanuel Jaylen Quickley (New York Knicks).

Many NBA fans then commented on the post, giving their opinion on who deserves the prestigious award. However, one comment stood out the most. NBA Hall of Famer Dwyane hilariously commented, “It’s 4 games into the season.”

With a total of 72 NBA games to be played in the regular season, Dwyane Wade is of the opinion that there’s a long way to go before highlighting any players. This opinion is definitely unbiased considering that his ‘Banana Boat Crew’ brother Chris Paul was in the discussion too.

‘The Banana Boat Crew’ is possibly one of the greatest ‘what ifs’ of NBA history. The group comprises legendary players who also are long-time close friends off the basketball court.

Apart from Chris Paul and Dwyane Wade, the ‘Banana Boat Crew’ consists of LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony as well. The four grew closer after their time together in the 2009 Olympics. The group’s nickname was created after an infamous picture of the four on a banana boat went viral.

The four have always wanted to play on the same NBA team. However, LeBron has played only with Wade (Miami Heat) and Carmelo Anthony (Lakers). Can you imagine if the four NBA legends actually played on the same team?
