“Two picks, two players go to our team. When they hit us with that, I was like…so you know you get that little quietness on the phone with Bron. I’m like, “So, what do you want to do?” And so we went from that to let’s get in person. Let’s have a conversation. We had already knew the other player, if it was three, who would we like to play with. His name is Christopher Bosh.” Wade said.
