here is a comparison of their respective stats from their last year in college (some numbers rounded):
Wade: 21.5 ppg, 50% FG, 31% 3PT, 6.3 RPG, 4.4 APG, 1.3 BPG, 2.2 SPG
Roy: 20.2 PPG, 51% FG, 40% 3PT, 5.6 RPG, 4.1 APG, 0.8 BPG, 1.4 SPG
Wade is definitely more athletic, but Roy put up almost the same numbers in college, although those are Roy's senior numbers compared to Wade as a soph.
I just thought it is interesting to note.  Someone in the O-live forum asked, after watching Wade in the clinching game 6 of this year's finals,  "who is the Wade in this draft" (or something to that effect).  Which college player has the best chance to jump out and dominate the league?  I still think that Gay has the most superstar potential, and Aldridge is my second choice for Portland's #4 pick (even if he won't ever be a superstar), but there is definitely some similarity between Wade's numbers and Roy's.  That's all.
