Nowitzki Calls James & Wade a little childish, a little ignorant
Written by playerpress.com, Saturday June 11 2011
Dallas Mavericks center Dirk Nowitzki sais that Miami Heat stars Dwyane Wade and LeBron James were "a little childish, a little ignorant" after a video which hit the internet on Friday showed them apparently mocking the sinus infection he suffered through game four of the NBA Finals with.
The video shows Wade walking just in front of James before Game Five of the NBA finals after the mornings shoot around. Wade coughed, looked over at James and said, "Did you hear me cough? Think I'm sick." James then used his shirt to cover his mouth.
Saturday during the news conferences, Wade said that the cough was real and that he only made a joke about it because there were cameras around. He also made sure to make the point that Nowitzki's name was never mentioned anywhere in the video.
However, the intent is pretty obvious that the remark and the “joke” were directly related to Nowitzki’s illness.
James called the whole video and the news it has caused "a non-issue."
