Statement about Lebron James

Announcement0 Comments

Wade releases a statement on Lebron James’s decision to leave the Miami Heat and go back to Cleveland:

As a friend and a teammate, I am sad to see my brother LeBron leave to begin a new journey. In 2010, we decided to come together all for one goal — to win championships and we succeeded. We were friends when we first joined the league and created an unbreakable bond the past four years. Our collaboration will always be very special to me both personally and professionally.

Interview0 Comments

Wade talks about winning his second NBA championship with the Miami Heat:

Both were awesome, but what made this one more gratifying was not only every­thing we went through as a team—going back to last season when we all de­cided to play together—but all I’ve been through personally. Getting divorced, going through an ugly custody battle. So when we won, so many emotions went through me. The last time we won a championship, I was 24 and worry-free.

We’re not rushing it. Both of us have been married before, and we understand that if we choose to marry again, we want it to be right. We both took failing at marriage hard. The next time it’s gotta be forever.
