He couldn't help but curse:
Damn it!
How good it would have been if the "Heat's Big Three" hadn't been formed from the start.
He wanted to say something to salvage some of their reputation.
Outsiders didn't know, but they themselves were very clear about it; although they had initially had a "Three-Year Pact," ultimately this "Three-Year Pact" did not come to fruition. When LeBron asked him to go to Cleveland, he did not agree.
Later LeBron's move to Miami was completely his own "initiative"; they had no knowledge of it!
If this point were made public, then maybe this whole "pre-agreed alliance" narrative could be cleared, right?
That could possibly salvage some reputation.
Many media outlets mocked them, citing their pre-agreed plan, which ended up being brutally defeated.
But considering LeBron was his good brother, Wade felt he couldn't betray him, so he never brought it up during interviews.
What Wade didn't expect was that he was still trying to cover up for LeBron.
