Lebron James Confirms He Did Tell Dwyane Wade They’d Get Back Together

According to Lebron, you’ll be seeing him and Dwyane back together soon — but make no mistake, he’s not talking basketball.

Yesterday we posted about Lebron & D. Wade reunited during the Cavs vs Miami Christmas game, which went viral after Lebron was spotted saying something to Wade. From the muffled audio it appeared that he said  “We’re going to reunite again and do some bigger and better things, all right?” followed by “If things don’t get better this year.” Shortly after, blogs started posting a quote of Lebron saying that he would leave Cleveland if it made sense business-wise also went viral. This sparked rumors that Lebron could be taking his talents back to South Beach soon. Here’s what Lebron had to say about the clip:

“I’ve seen the clip just like you’ve seen the clip,” James said. “I don’t know exactly what I said at the beginning, either. I know I said, ‘We’ll get back together and do some bigger and better things,’ but it had nothing to do about basketball. I mean, if I was going to tell him that, I’d tell him the night before. Come on, guys. I’m not stupid. I know I didn’t go to college, but I’m not stupid. I wouldn’t say that on Christmas with a hundred cameras around. I would have told him the night before at his house.

“But, it’s just me, so I get it. I get it. But it had nothing to do with leaving here and reuniting with him. It had everything to do with just talking about other things more than just basketball. Everybody gets so involved in basketball, our friendship, obviously, you guys know, is bigger than basketball. So, you know, our last four years couldn’t be bigger and better even if we did get back together. But, whatever. It’s crazy.”

James also reaffirmed his commitment to Cleveland.

“I’m here to build something great in the present and in the future, and that’s the reason I’m back,” James said. “I got no other reason to have to continue to talk about things that’s so outlandish. I’m here. This is where I’ll be, and this is where I’m comfortable at.”

Lebron is currently having a rough time with a soreness to his left knee. He’s expected to sit out his next two games.
