Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade is one of the greatest guards in NBA history, but his journey to becoming a basketball legend was far from easy. In a recent “7PM In Brooklyn,” episode with his close friend Carmelo Anthony and co-host The Kid Mero, Dwyane Wade shared the moment he realized his Michael Jordan moment.
“I’m not the greatest shooter of all time, but I was great at so many different things,” said Dwyane Wade. The three-time NBA champion was upfront about his aspirations, but the realization of being among the greatest, like Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan, hit him during his rookie year.
Wade noted that the room was packed with both retired legends and active players. As they gathered for a group photo, they naturally arranged themselves by height, sparking some lively and spirited interactions.
However, the atmosphere shifted dramatically when Michael Jordan walked in. He entered with an air of dominance, drawing everyone’s attention. Wade recounted on the podcast that Jordan was “sizing every N***a up from the tunnel.”
When Jordan’s gaze met Magic Johnson’s, they immediately began exchanging trash talk, intensifying the competitive energy in the room.
In an old video. Jordan could be heard challenging Magic Johnson with the words, “Put your sneaks on, let’s go right now,” urging a one-on-one matchup. Unfortunately, this showdown never materialized.
The rivalry between Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan remains a significant chapter in NBA history. Over their careers, they faced off 13 times in regular-season games, with Jordan narrowly leading the series 7-6.
