I hear Bron truckin’, them Nikes hittin’ the ground, Dwyane Wade said on his no-look pass for a LeBron James dunk
Words cannot express the historic partnership between LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, but this unusual 2010 photo does.
It depicts the two having a celebratory moment following an excellent link-up play against the Bucks.
D-Wade discussed that photo in a recent podcast episode, calling it the ultimate photograph and offering some context.
D-Wade made his impact with the Golden Eagles before they were both chosen in the historic 2003 NBA Draft, with James choosing first and Wade selecting fifth. They had previously proven their extraordinary talent in college and high school.
In remembrance of him, Marquette University retired his number in 2007 at its downtown Milwaukee arena, the Bradley Center.
Years later, the famous guard talked about his experience going back to the arena for the Bucks game that was highlighted and the conflicting reactions he received from the crowd during the podcast episode that featured rapper Rick Ross.
He and his amazing partner, The King, let it all out on the floor almost 4 minutes into the game, propelled by the jeers of the audience. Wade raced toward the other team’s half after snatching a loose ball.
The Flash needed to make a snap decision because he had two defenders in front of him. The Hall of Famer made the perfect decision as always, lining up his accompanied teammate.
No, he let the ball bounce to James, who was standing behind him on the right. The recipient of the pass, who had everyone in amazement, finished it off perfectly with an impressive tomahawk dunk. An obvious exclamation point.
Wade adopted a lighthearted airplane stance following their thrilling play, replicating Bron’s mid-air slam and setting up an enduring Kodiak moment.
Although the pair, who had paired up in the summer of 2010, was obviously adored by all Miami Heat supporters, it was not uncommon for them to face jeers from rival spectators.
Nevertheless, the criticism didn’t stop them—along with Chris Bosh and company—from making it to the NBA Finals four times and winning two well-earned championships.
