I think that work has been the key for me. Just like they say shooting will become easy if you just keep working at it, well, I love the dribble game-that brings excitement to the game.

I live by the motto, 'To whom much is given, much is required.' I know that people are counting on me. That's why I have to keep working hard.

People don't need to necessarily see me in the jersey to understand who I am and what message I'm trying to get across with the things that I'm marketing.

My name is very important to me. I'm representing the Wade name. I've got the name on the back of my jersey when I play. I walk around with that name. That's my family name, the name my son will grow up with. So it's very important to me to keep the level of maturity that I have.

To wear a gray tweed suit, you have to be mature and confident in yourself. Some people can't pull it off.

Well, it used to be Kobe Bryant... the second best all time.... now, I have a new favorite player to play against... my former teammate, LeBron James.

I realize that you have to be careful sometimes what you wish for.
