Why would he not want to go to a team where the chances of winning are greater then they were back in his home town. Why would he not want to play with two of his good friends who just happen to be superstars. Why would he not want to live in South Beach, a place known for the lifestyle that most superstars want to live and be a part of.
So it took a small sacrifice, but what's $30 million to a man who makes millions in endorsements a year. People may be talking about how his legacy is over, he will never go down in history as good as many other players. But it's too late for that, he is already the greatest player in this modern generation, as much as it pains me to say that.
A championship is a championship, it's not like he has gone from the franchise player to coming off the bench. Now Miami has 3 franchise players, obviously fans are going to see the team as Wade's team, but now there is not one spotlight on one player, or even one spotlight on three players. But as LeBron himself said "there are 3 spotlights" equally shared.
The goal is to win championships, in my opinion the best player is one who can welcome twp superstars into their team (Wade), a player who can sacrifice emotional ties to their city to get better (Lebron), and a player who can realise that money doesn't win championships and taking a pay cut in order to win championships is sometimes the best choice (Bosh).
All that is left is for the Miami Thrice (the nickname I am officially endorsing for the Miami Trio) to prove haters wrong and watch as the legacy that is not one person's legacy but a team's dynasty go on to win world championships and go down in history.
