I know that he left the heat high and dry, but the four years he had in Miami were only rivaled by Shaq and Mj in terms of sheer productivity and dominance. Like WOW. As a Lakers fan, I’m jealous that Miami has that for four years. Not to mention that y’all signed him as a FA, And didn’t alphabetical to give away picks for him.
Miami now is on a higher echelon of teams imo in comparison to most teams and that is due to their championship history.
Wade is a top 25 player but you simply cannot compa him to Lbj. If wade avoided injuries I’d say he coulda broke top 15-19.
You are incorrect. We did a sign and trade with Cleveland for 2 FRP all for an additional year that LJ opted out of anyway.
2 firsts and 2 seconds and a pick swap in 2012 that was not to be:
Traded by the Cleveland Cavaliers to the Miami Heat for a 2011 2nd round draft pick (
Milan Macvan was later selected), a 2012 2nd round draft pick (
Jae Crowder was later selected), a 2013 1st round draft pick (
Nemanja Nedovic was later selected) and a 2016 1st round draft pick (
Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot was later selected). Cleveland also received a trade exception from Miami. Cleveland had the option to swap 1st round draft picks with Miami in 2012 but did not do so.
Bosh? 2 firsts, one which previously belonged to Toronto.
Traded by the Toronto Raptors to the Miami Heat for a 2011 1st round draft pick (
Norris Cole was later selected) and a 2011 1st round draft pick (
Jonas Valanciunas was later selected). Toronto also received a trade exception from Miami. This was the same 1st round draft pick that Toronto had previously traded to Miami on February 13, 2009.
The Heat later traded Bojan Bogdanovic for Norris Cole.
