The NBA’s 50 Greatest Duos Of All-Time
By Duncan Smith
9. LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, Miami Heat
LeBron James and Dwyane Wade provided the driving force behind the polarizing Miami Heat teams between 2010 and 2014. While the Heat didn’t win “Not three, not four, not five, not six, not seven titles,” as James predicted when they were introduced to Heat fans along with Chris Bosh, they did win two NBA championships in dominant fashion and went to the NBA Finals all four years the duo were together.
In those four years, James and Wade combined for eight All-Star game appearances, three All-Star game MVP awards, and LeBron won two of his four NBA MVP awards alongside Wade.
James also was named to All-NBA First Teams all four years he played in Miami, three NBA All-Defense First Teams, and Wade was named to an All-NBA Second Team and two All-NBA Third Teams.
In their four years together, those Miami Heat teams went a combined 224-88, good for a 71.7 winning percentage.
