Dwayne Wade was not allowed to wear the original tinted goggles he wanted to wear after the NBA banned them for "an unfair advantage by the opponent not being able to see your eyes," according to Erik Spoelstra. Kind of like getting pulled over because your car windows are below the legal limit in your state (most have a 35% tint limit) and Heat boss bench Erik Spoelstra used the car as an example. Earlier the NBA approved of the glasses but them retracted that before allowing him to wear them with less tint. "Gogglegate" is how Spoelstra termed it.
Wade and the Heat lighten the tint and he rocked them in the Heat's return trip to the Garden to face the Knicks. Dwayne has been suffering from migraine headaches for years with the issue popping up again last week causing him to sit out this past Sunday's game against the Raptors.
