Dwyane Wade on LeBron James' 'Not one, not two, not three' speech: 'The world should not have seen that'

When the Miami Heat unveiled their Big Three to the world, LeBron James guaranteed they would win multiple NBA championships—"not one, not two, not three," as the young "King" said in 2010.

Fourteen years after that infamous speech, Dwyane Wade said LeBron should've kept his mouth shut. After all, the Heatless "only" won two titles in their four years together.

"He tripping," Wade said on The OGs Show. "I didn't say a word. That's supposed to be a moment that was just for our fans, and the world should not have seen that. That's something you say internal. 'We're going to win every year,' but really, you know how hard it is to win one year? I don't care what talent you have. That's why I was sitting there like, 'Oh my man, don't know yet.'"

Wade knew it was impossible

While the Heat had arguably the best team during that era, Wade already knew how tough it was to win even just one title.

With Shaquille O'Neal's help, he led the Heat to the 2006 NBA Finals. But despite having home-court advantage, they fell behind 0-2 to the Dallas Mavericks before winning four in a row to secure the franchise's first NBA championship.

Meanwhile, James himself already knew how tough playing on the NBA's biggest stage was. His Cleveland Cavaliers were swept in the 2007 Finals by the San Antonio Spurs. But perhaps he thought having Wade and Bosh beside him would make the Heat invincible.

"But he did go to the Finals 10 years in a row, though. He damn sure did not lie about how many opportunities. He almost did it. He ain't lie. He got there 10 years in a row. We went four, he went 10, so he was onto something," added Wade.

LeBron's iconic run

Although the Heat did not win as many championships as LeBron predicted, they still dominated the league, making four straight trips to the NBA Finals and winning back-to-back titles in 2012 and 2013.

In 2013, the Heat set a franchise record with 66 wins and beat the Spurs in Game 7 of the Finals in one of the most memorable championship series ever. LeBron also won back-to-back league MVPs and Finals MVPs in 2013. After leading the Heat to four straight trips to the championship, James returned to Cleveland and took the Cavs to four straight Finals appearances, too.

By doing so, "King James" became only the sixth player in NBA history to play in eight consecutive NBA Finals—the rest of the guys on that list played for the 1960s Boston Celtics.
