The Cleveland Cavaliers are at home this Thursday, looking to stop the Chicago Bulls’ win streak. For Cavaliers guard Dwyane Wade, the game is also a chance to get re-acquainted with his old teammates. Bulls center Robin Lopez, however, will walk away from this game with some bitter memories of the mini-reunion because Wade did this to him.

That’s vintage Wade for all of you. That smile at the end was just the cherry on top for the three-time NBA champion. Wade might have lost some of his explosiveness now that he’s 35, but he remains a cunning scorer, who is able to find a way to score.
Wade played for the Bulls last season, so Lopez must be very familiar of what his former teammate is capable of doing on the court. Lopez might feel bad for getting tricked by Wade, but hey, at least he didn’t suffer the same fate as that of Anderson Varejao
It’s nice to see Wade bust out moves like that from time to time, as we haven’t been seeing the former Marquette Golden Eagle play as many minutes this season as he used to. Wade, who averages 35.0 minutes per game in his career, is sweating it out on the court for just 23.7 minutes per contest this season.
