Miami Heat: Dwyane Wade fulfilled his purpose every day in Heat jersey
The Miami Heat is home to one of the greatest players and shooting guards in NBA history. He knew, lived, played with and more than fulfilled his purpose.
The Miami Heat are an organization that are known for being them. A bit confusing on the first read, what this means is that they are unapologetically and unwaveringly always going to be themselves and stick to the principles that have helped to build, make, and sustain this organization as the pillar it has grown to be. They are aware, active, and steadfast in their purpose.
Like the purpose that the Miami Heat organization operates with, that is the same purpose that the greatest player in franchise history, Dwyane Wade, played with, moved with, and continues to appear to live by today. To catch you up, here is a recent Twitter post from SLAM Magazine that gives context to this declaration.
If you click on Flash‘s tile, you get a closer view of his quote. What it says is that “The biggest thing is, find out what’s your purpose. What’s the reason you are playing this game for?”
For D-Wade, that purpose could have meant many of a few things, but none of them could ever be doubted, as it showed in everything he did. Here is what it meant to us though.
His purpose was to show people every day how far a person could come. He was the walking embodiment of the person that “wasn’t supposed to be here”, a sentiment he expresses in his famous From Robins, Illinois commercial.
His purpose was to show people that anything was possible. Whether you were a third-year player or a veteran, like he was at the time of his first NBA title, he showed you anything was possible in the most unbelievable and impossible league ever. This meant that anything was possible, in any walk of life or in any arena.
He also showed you that nothing is given, but through hard work and perseverance, anything could be earned. Such as the way that a man from the middle of America, could go to the bottom of the map in South Florida and pour himself into the community, into the organization, and into the fanbase, and come out on the other side leaving your legacy and more specifically, your name, on a place forever. Look no further than Miami-Wade County(Dade County).
While his purpose probably does and could include many things, these were definitely some of them and what we took from that statement. Here is D-Wade’s pinned tweet, or the tweet that is to constantly remain at the top of his feed on his official Twitter account.
If you note the caption, it says it all. With that in mind though, that isn’t the way it should go and if you would allow us to humbly correct things. No, Dwyane Flash-WoW-Father Prime Wade, all we can say is… THANK YOU!
