Would Wade's NBA legacy be greater had LeBron never taken his talents to South Beach?

Kevin Durant signing with the Golden State Warriors has been the talk of the NBA and will continue to be the talk of the league for this upcoming season. Many fans defending Durant's much criticized decision have referenced The Decision, saying that what KD did is no different than what LeBron James did when he took his talents to Miami in 2010.

Charles Barkley, Larry Bird and Michael Jordan all voiced their displeasure with Durant's departure, saying they would have never joined a rival. Reggie Miller took it a step further, publishing an essay on Bleacher Report titled: Kevin Durant Traded a Sacred Legacy for Cheap Jewelry.
