Shaq says he wanted to come to Miami because of Dwyane Wade and had to sacrifice for the 2006 championship:
“When I first came here I had to sacrifice — I was the man everywhere I went…during the playoffs I’m watching this mf (D-Wade) kill BD (Baron Davis)…I seen it with Penny, I seen it with Kobe…now that I’m getting traded I already know where I want to go — I need somebody like him (D-Wade)…we had a conversation and told him ‘this is your team’…I remember one time I was re-negotiating…I think it was 125M for 5y or Pat said you can 100M for 4y and if you take 100 for 4 that’s how we got Posey, Antoine and J-Will…”
