Former Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade recently revealed that during the formation of the Heat Legend Big Three, two former NBA stars almost joined forces with him and LeBron James. According to Wade, Amare Stoudemire and Carlos Boozer were both free agents at the time and they had seriously discussed whether they were suitable for partnering with him and James.
"We got a lot of calls," Wade said. "Amare is a free agent, and Boozer is also a free agent. So we have to see if their personality and talent are suitable for us."
In the end, the Miami Heat chose a different direction and signed Chris Bosh to form a complete Big Three lineup. It turned out to be a perfect deal. Bosh is able to open up space, defend multiple positions, and sacrifice his own stats for the team's success, which makes him an ideal complement to Wade and James. Bosh's comprehensiveness modernizes the Miami Heat's game style, and he often opens up space on key defensive ends. During his time with the Miami Heat, Bosh averaged 17.8 points and 7.3 rebounds per game, helping the Heat win the championship in 2012 and 2013. His performance at critical moments, including a key offensive rebound snatched in Game 6 of the 2013 NBA Finals, and Ray Allen eventually hit an iconic three-pointer, establishing his position as a key figure in the success of the Miami Heat.
While Stoudemire and Boozer are both talented big men, Bosh's ability to adapt to the Miami system proves that he is the right choice. The Heat Big Three became one of the most dominant rosters in NBA history, and Wade's profound insight into this decision-making process showed people the glory they might have.
