However, he had a one-season stint playing for his hometown team, the\u00a0Chicago Bulls. Wade signed with Chicago during the 2016 free agency after he was reportedly displeased with Miami&#8217;s offer.<\/p>\n<p data-idx=\"1\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_1\">While Wade only played one year for the Bulls, he nearly joined them much earlier in his career. During the summer of 2010, he wanted to join a team that could contend for a title and he felt like the Heat were not in a position to do that. However, a phone call from LeBron James prevented him from leaving Miami.<\/p>\n<p data-idx=\"2\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_2\">Wade discussed the situation on the Wednesday episode of &#8220;The OGs&#8221; show with former teammates Mike Miller and Udonis Haslem.<\/p>\n<div class=\"related-heading\">\n<div class=\"fragments-container \">\n<div class=\"content-holder\">\n<div id=\"article-content\" class=\"keeda_widget article-content-holder\" data-postid=\"4634066\" data-slug-id=\"2221347\">\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I was actually leaving Miami at that time,&#8221; Wade said. &#8220;I didn&#8217;t think there was nobody out there that we could get was gonna help us get to that level.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p data-idx=\"4\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_4\">Wade said that since it was the free-agency period, he wanted to explore his options in terms of joining a winning team. This led him to consider the Bulls. However, things changed when James got in touch with him.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;But I got that call man,&#8221; Wade added. &#8220;I got a call from No. 6.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"sportskeeda-embed\" data-src=\"embed\">\n<div class=\"sk-embed-wrapper\" data-embed-type=\"tweet\">\n<div class=\"sk-embed-container\">\n<div class=\"sk-embed-content\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=true&amp;id=1853877846332023153&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sportskeeda.com%2Fbasketball%2Fnews-i-got-call-no-6-dwyane-wade-reveals-lebron-james-call-kept-signing-chicago-bulls-2010-fa&amp;sessionId=e95f96adb149ca83f40792509acb22375d49c8ee&amp;siteScreenName=sportskeeda&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1853877846332023153\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"embed-info-overlay\"><label for=\"sk_embed__tweet__0\">Expand Tweet<\/label><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-idx=\"5\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_5\">While it&#8217;s fun to imagine what Dwyane Wade and Derrick Rose could have accomplished, it&#8217;s hard to argue against the Miami Heat&#8217;s success.<\/p>\n<p data-idx=\"6\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_6\">Wade joined with LeBron James and Chris Bosh to create a dominant trio that would make the NBA Finals every year that they were together (2011-2014). In those four years, they won two championships (2012 and 2013).<\/p>\n<p data-idx=\"7\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_7\">During that run, they even beat the Bulls twice in the playoffs (2010 and 2012).<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Dwyane Wade shares who is on his NBA &#8216;Mount Rushmore&#8217;<\/h2>\n<p data-idx=\"9\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_9\">Aside from talking about the\u00a0Miami Heat&#8217;s championship days, the &#8220;OGs&#8221; hosts also asked Dwyane Wade other basketball-related things, including who was on his basketball &#8220;Mount Rushmore.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-idx=\"10\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_10\">Wade started his list by naming six-time Chicago Bulls legend and one of the NBA&#8217;s GOATs, Michael Jordan. Then, he named a fellow legendary shooting guard in Kobe Bryant.<\/p>\n<p data-idx=\"11\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_11\">Afterward, Wade named two players with whom he won championships: LeBron James and Shaquille O&#8217;Neal. The three-time Heat champion then joked that he would replace Shaq with Steph Curry if the legendary center kept talking.<\/p>\n<p data-idx=\"12\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_12\">Wade also said he named the players in no particular order (Timestamp: 1:34:00).<\/p>\n<div class=\"sportskeeda-embed\" data-src=\"youtube\">\n<div class=\"yt-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6oMUPGG96aY\" width=\"660\" height=\"370\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-idx=\"13\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_13\">Dwyane Wade&#8217;s first NBA title was won with a veteran Shaquille O&#8217;Neal in 2006.
