Despite making four straight NBA Finals appearances during their time together as teammates, Dwyane Wade doesn’t know if the Miami Heat would have added more banners to the rafters if LeBron James stayed after the 2013-14 season.
Appearing on Jalen Rose’s Renaissance Man podcast (starts at 17:30 mark), Wade had this response when asked how many more championships he thinks the Heat would have won if James didn’t leave as a free agent:
“I don’t know. That Golden State team was right on our heels. I really don’t know. I wasn’t in my prime anymore. I was outside of my prime about 2014. And so, that would have made it hard for us to really win if I was still going to be a big part of it. Chris Bosh not knowing what he was going to be dealing with later, he was in his prime and LeBron was in his, but I wasn’t in mine anymore. And it would have made it tough to keep going, so I would have really, really had to find health in a big way very quickly to keep competing at that level and because my body was going through so much.”
