From his lethal right-to-left crossover dribble to his patented euro-step, Dwyane Wade is a wizard when it comes to handling the basketball. Since D3 has embarrassed countless defenders throughout the years, this list may not be to perfection. However, our staff has compiled what we think are the 10 best crossovers of D. Wade's career, so far. Enjoy. 10. D. Wade Crosses Over Luol Deng https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdAS77oQpas This was the first year of the 'Big Three' era and D. Wade was at the tail end of his athletic prime. In this instance, he uses his patented right-to-left crossover on Deng and jams it home with the right hand. [xyz-ihs snippet="Responsive-Ad"] 9. Wade Goes Reverse https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6Ox4rH_JyQ In this instance, Dwyane acts as if he's going to use the screen from Udonis Haslem, but quickly crosses to his left and takes on two Portland Trail Blazers' defenders for the sick reverse layup.

Wade Crosses Up DeMar DeRozan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWbE7W8-kTg Once again, Wade acts as if he's going to use the screen from his teammate (in this instance Joel Anthony), but opts to go away from the screen, resulting in a two-handed flush. [xyz-ihs snippet="Responsive-Ad"] 7. Wade's Game Winner Against the Hornets https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-Op-CdfiOI This one is on the list purely because of the significance of the game. In his rookie season, Dwyane Wade had the ball in his hands in a critical game of the 2004 NBA playoffs versus the New Orleans Hornets. As the clock wound down, Wade took Baron Davis to his right, pulled back, and drained the epic floater of the young rookie's career. [xyz-ihs snippet="Responsive-Ad"] 6. Wade's Inside Dribble https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0r9IRKpYgo This one was sick. Dwyane Wade used a smooth inside dribble with his right hand on the Toronto Raptors defense and flushed it with two hands on Chris Bosh's former team. [xyz-ihs snippet="Responsive-Ad"] 5. Wade's Poster on Zaza Pachulia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMgcROfb4Ss It was Game 6 of the 2009 playoffs and the Heat were facing the Atlanta Hawks. Dwyane Wade used the pick from Joel Anthony to get past his first defender, then used the inside-out dribble on Pachulia and finished with a vicious one-handed throw down over 6'11" center.

Mayo of the Memphis Grizzlies in this clip, which was not good news for O.J. Not only did Wade break Mayo's ankles, but Mayo goes flying into his own teammate. [xyz-ihs snippet="Responsive-Ad"] 3. Wade Puts Evan Turner on Roller Skates https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGFYr9Cb9Ss I think you guys remember this one since it was from recent memory. D. Wade uses the double crossover on Evan Turner in round one of the 2011 NBA playoffs. Some say Evan is still looking for his ankles to this day. [xyz-ihs snippet="Responsive-Ad"] 2. D. Wade's Euro-step on K.G. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcDf5jLRuJY This one was iconic, epic, and historical all in one word. It was the game 2 of the 2011 NBA playoffs in which the Heat eventually beat the Boston Celtics. On a fast break, Wade gets Kevin Garnett so good with the euro-step, that he actually does a 180 degree turn to find out where Wade went. An uproar from the crowd quickly ensued. [xyz-ihs snippet="Responsive-Ad"] 1. Dwyane Wade with the Nastiest Crossover of All Time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OC6EOGllKmQ Forget the best crossover of Dwyane Wade's career, this might be the best crossover dribble of all time. Dwyane drives hard to his right, pulls back between the legs and sends his defender into the abyss. His defender flew so hard that he actually dove to prevent from getting a floor burn. Too bad Andrei Kirilenko had to ruin it by fouling Wade on the play. [xyz-ihs snippet="Responsive-Ad"]
