Dwyane Wade Loses Triple Double to Cruel Teammate
The Chicago Bulls put it on the Cavaliers in Cleveland this past Saturday night, winning 117-99.
Of course, this outcome may just have been influenced by the absence of LeBron James, who sat out because of the dreaded strep throat.
The Bulls took full advantage of the Cavs rather glaring handicap, and a good time was had by all.
Well, until the final play of the game, anyway.
Dwyane Wade was one precious rebound away from the coveted triple-double when this happened:

Seriously?
Just wow.
Some bastard named Cristiano Felicio had the unmitigated gall to deny a man his just reward.
Wade even said as much after the game, wondering aloud why his own teammate wouldn't want him to be great.
After the game, it was all giggles and farts, but you could tell there was some genuine contempt beneath the Wade grin.
Honestly, Felicio hasn't even logged 100 games in the Association.
Where, exactly, does this dude get the balls?
Wade still has three rings and Gabrielle Union, so he should be able to pick up the pieces and move on.
In the meantime, let's enjoy this palate-cleansing Wade triple-double from 'way back in 2006.
All better now.
