Dwyane Wade joined the show to discuss his offseason and some of the moves around the NBA ...
-- Wade said he would definitely be interested in adding Allen Iverson to the Heat.
"To hear Iverson say that he wouldn't mind being here is great because he's one of the best scorers," Wade said. "I say that he's one of the best offensive talents to ever put on a jersey. So you can never frown your nose up or your eyebrows up to that because he's a plus to any team, especially that runs the style of offense that he likes -- that's to clear things out and open the court up some."
Dan asked Wade if he would take less money to sign more guys. Wade said depended on the players. Dan pointed out that other great players like Michael Jordan have taken less money. Wade pointed out those guys weren't on their second NBA contract like he is.
-- Dan asked Wade if he and LeBron had ever talked about playing together.
"We considered it years ago. We think about, wow, we could play on the same team one day? Wow, that would be great," Wade said.
But Wade said he doesn't want to go to Cleveland.
"I don't like the weather up there," Wade said. "I've been in Miami for six years and my blood is thin."
-- Dan asked Wade if he heard about Jordan Crawford dunking on LeBron at his summer camp.
Wade said: "Have I? I've heard about it from a lot of different people. Actually, I was talking to Kobe the other day and Kobe told me. That's how I knew it was really serious. At first I heard it and I said get out of here. And Kobe said, 'Man, you gotta call LeBron. You gotta give him stuff about this.' That's how we all are. When something is real we're going to say something to each other about it." |
