10 years later, ‘The Decision’ still source of speculation

July 8, 2020 will mark the 10-year anniversary of LeBron James’ “The Decision” — the television special in which the then-25-year-old two-time MVP announced he would join the Miami Heat. And even with so much time elapsed, people continue to speculate about the events.

Did James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh agree to team up in Miami months or even years in advance? In Wade’s ESPN documentary about his career, he said that the three agreed to sign with the Heat in a July 4 call — but James stopped returning his calls and texts for the next few days.
