Wade never imagined that he would one day leave the Heat, and since joining the Heat in 2003, Wade has made tremendous contributions and sacrifices for this team. He is the soul of the Heat and the banner of Miami. But this summer, Wade experienced the cruelty of the business scene, what it means to be "loyal in this league is worthless!" ”

When Wade became a free agent this summer, Riley didn't focus on renewing Wade's contract. James's exodus, Jean Pat. Riley began to go berserk. He needed a new core, but it was clear that Wade was no longer up to Riley's requirements. He's about to turn 33 and he's riddled with injuries. Riley doesn't know what kind of form Wade can play again, or even how many games Wade will play next season.

Therefore, he took the lead in renewing Bosh's contract with a maximum salary, but he was indifferent to Wade. When he was busy, he paid a lot of money to sign Lore. After Deng and others, they only offered Wade a two-year contract of $16.5 million!

Go home or run away? Wade couldn't say, but it was certainly the most painful decision Wade ever made in his career. The thought of wearing a jersey without the Heat logo makes Wade always unable to accept such a thing.

Just a week ago, Pat. Riley gave Wade a brand new offer. 29 million in 2 years, 12.5 million more than the first offer, and 1 million more than the Kuban offer.

$1,000,000 divided over two years and $500,000 per year. 500,000 a year, does that matter to Wade? It doesn't matter, $500,000 isn't even enough for Wade to buy a ring. Riley's second offer did have some sincerity, but this sincerity came after Cuban and after he had the intention to leave.

Wade's heart has undoubtedly been hurt, and with the Heat, Wade has never received the highest salary on the team. His sacrifice after sacrifice earned the Heat three championships. is also one of the best scoring guards of the 21st century, and the same team spirit, Kobe Bryant. Bryant was still treated favorably with the Lakers in his twilight years, but Wade did not enjoy such treatment, admitting that he was hurt and could not accept being snubbed.

As a big-name star, Wade has his own pride and a strong sense of self-esteem. Maybe he'll return to Miami one day to retire his jersey, but he's probably not going to accept Riley's second offer.

Just when Wade's heart was extremely struggling, Cuban's second offer was also sent to Wade. 31 million in 2 years, Kuban poured everything he had. His offer means that the Mavericks are desperate to completely lock up the salary space for the next two years, just to welcome Wade to join!

A more sincere person offered a higher price, and Wade's heart was shaken again, and he found that he and Miami seemed to be getting farther and farther away.

"Have you made your decision, Dwayne, the new season is about to begin!" On the phone, Henry. Thomas was more anxious than Wade himself.

But even in the face of Cuban's attitude and price, Wade is still hesitating. "I don't know, Henry, I don't know......"

In his heart, he has long left the imprint of the Miami Heat. Miami blood flows through his body!

So, Wade chose to continue waiting. He waited for Riley's third offer, he was not for money, if Riley offered 29 million for the first time, he would definitely not hesitate to sign his name on the contract and continue to play for the Heat until the day he retired.

What he is doing is a respect and an affirmation. The whole world knows Wade doesn't want to leave Miami, and Riley and the Heat's management know better. If Riley still cares about him, if the Heat's management still cares about him, then they will definitely make a third offer for Wade and do everything they can to keep this team soul!

The result? As pre-season training camp for the new season was about to begin, he still hadn't received a call from Riley.

When you give your best years for a team, pay blood and tears for it, and end up being betrayed, can you choose to let go? Perhaps, Wade is asking himself this question in his heart right now.

Until the last minute, Wade still did not wait for Riley's statement. 31 million in 2 years, it turns out that 31 million in 2 years is all his value in the eyes of Riley!

Wade was an emotional man, and he waited for a call from Riley, even if it was a phone call. But, none of this ever happened.

Riley's inaction left Wade in despair, followed by disappointment. At one o'clock in the morning, the guy picked up the basketball again and went out the door. He wanted to look again, to see the rising sun over the Miamina coastline......

Henry. Thomas was woken up by the ringing of the phone, and as a 60-year-old man, he sometimes couldn't stand such a toss. But Thomas is very dedicated, and he always does one thing – to get the best out of his players.

"Dwayne, Miami at three in the morning, aha?" Thomas pretended to be very angry.

"I'm sorry Henry, I'm very sorry, I promise it's the last time, because, I've already decided."

Listen to what Wade said, Henry. Thomas suddenly lost all his sleepiness! Decided? Could it be......

"So, where are we going to see the great Dwayne in the new season. What about Wade? Thomas found that his hands were shaking with nervousness! Because, it is very likely that this is a major decision that will change Wade's entire career!

"Miami." Wade replied categorically.

"Miami?"

"Just kidding, Thomas. I'm dead, really, I'm hurt so much. Just blame me for being so stupid, I'm so fucking stupid. It's a business alliance, man, I kind of get it thoroughly. ”

Henry. Thomas didn't know that when Wade said "I'm dead," he stared at Miami's beautiful coastline with rosy eyes.

"No, kid, loyalty is more important than business...... I respect your decision, but you shouldn't doubt your loyalty. "Henry couldn't bear to see a simple soul contaminated like this.

"Alright Thomas!" Wade yelled, his emotions a little out of control.

"I'm sorry...... I'm sorry, Thomas...... You know, it wasn't an easy decision for me...... Go to Dallas, go to the Kuban, do what you have to do. Next season, I'm going to play in Dallas. Wade couldn't hold back his tears, men can't shed tears.

“This is my house！” This classic move came from the pinnacle of his double-overtime steals, horseback shooting, three-point whistle shut-out to the Bulls, but there was no more. Here, no longer his turf......

"I know Dwayne, so you get ready. Hey, don't be so upset. Perhaps, this will be another good start? ”

"May it be Thomas, but may it be ......" a good start? Wade has left all his good fortune on the South Coast, in the arena that has won the top of the world three times.

"The fifth pick in the 2003 NBA Draft, the Miami Heat selected...... Dwayne. Wade, from Marquette University! "David. Stern's voice suddenly echoed in Wade's ears, and Wade opened his arms and closed his eyes against the sea breeze.

Goodbye, Miami. Maybe leaving is the best option......

One can imagine that when Wade visits Miami next season, everyone will be in await. People would hold signs that read "Thank you, Dwayne," kids would dance in the Heat's No. 3 jersey, and the big screen in the American Airlines arena would play highlights from Wade's Heat days over and over again. Riley would even smile at each other and then hug each other affectionately.

But Miami's "Flash", he never came back. The Heat No. 3 will cease to exist, and only Dwayne will remain. Wade, a Wade who continues to fight for his heart.

After all, Wade was gone.

"Butler University, no doubt." Yiyang didn't think about it, and said the name of his alma mater to Moodier.

Although Stevens has left the Bulldogs, the good teaching atmosphere he left at Butler is still there. Butler may not be the strongest right now, but he is the least utilitarian and the best. This kind of place is the best place for young players to grow.

As soon as Yiyang finished speaking, his mobile phone suddenly rang. So he tossed the basketball to Moodier and pulled his phone out of his pants pocket.

I took out my phone and saw that Wade's name appeared on the caller ID!

Yiyang was stunned, and then connected the phone. What would Wade tell himself? "I've decided to stay in Miami" or "I've decided to join Dallas."

Nervous, this call made Yiyang feel nervous.

"How's the honeymoon going, too?" Wade was the first to speak, but he didn't get straight to the point.

"Everything was perfect except that the time was too short, haha."

"Your wedding in Venice was so romantic, and even an old man like me was touched. Do you know what Kobe Bryant said? He said you're so sullen. usually doesn't say anything, but there are so many ghost ideas when it comes to weddings. ”

"I'm so grateful to have you here, really, it's a great honor."

"Don't say that, we're friends, aren't we? By the way, you know what I'm calling for, right? ”

"Actually, I don't know, Dwayne."

"Then I'm not going to beat around the bush, I just want to ask you. Dallas Mavericks, what time does it start training in the morning? ”

After that, Moodier saw Yiyang yelling at the sky like crazy. Isn't it just to collect some interest? Does that guy need to be that happy?
