Fun With Words: Dwyane Wade Edition

For whatever reason, I just thought this was amusing.

In the current ESPN the Magazine (Wade on the cover), there is a story about how driven Wade is or something. It includes this:

He enlarges his vocabulary, one word a week. "Immaculate was one," he says. "Cohorts. Lethargic. As in, 'I've been busy trying to get this lethargic team back on track'."

Did someone give Wade a "boost your 8th grader's vocabulary" book as a joke?
