Tell Dwade to take his socks off and you’ll see.” Wade immediately responds… “@DwyaneWade Yes sir! Are friendship goes beyond playing basketball! And we have no problem […]

Miami Heat’s Chris Bosh takes a lot of flack from the masses. Whether it’s the casual NBA fan, die-hard Heat fans or ESPN’s Skip Bayless, Bosh is constantly in the hot-seat since joining Dwayne Wade and LeBron James.
