LeBron James on Dwyane Wade’s game-winner: ‘Mine was more difficult’

Although LeBron James and Dwyane Wade have already played their final games together, the two will be linked forever. And so even on the heels of a very important win for LeBron James and the Lakers on Wednesday night, James was of course asked about the heroics of his pal Dwyane Wade on the same night.

Wade hit a miraculous one-legged 3-pointer to push the Miami Heat past the Golden State Warriors by one point. And it wasn’t that he was just on one leg that made it so tough as Wade bobbled the ball several times before getting it back and banking in the 3.

And what was LeBron’s response? Well, he couldn’t let his buddy get away that easy. James joked that his shot was ‘more difficult.’

Clearly, what we see here from LeBron is a little friendly ribbing towards Wade. While James’ shot was difficult, a contested stepback 3 from the corner is not quite as difficult as the miracle Wade pulled off last night.
