Furthermore, Wade claimed that most people are unaware that they are living in the LeBron James era.
Wade thinks LeBron wants to hold the record for most points scored in order to disprove his detractors. After James managed to shatter the mark, Wade said that it would be a while before other players could even get close to James.
