Wade responded directly to the tweets and expressed his gratitude towards the movement. He lets on that the love is making him emotional as he uses the crying emoji to show that the gesture would make him cry.

This is a great story out of Miami and it is an example of just how much Heat fans love and appreciate Wade. Miami fans are constantly derided as one of the worst fanbases in the NBA. There's definitely some truth to that statement, but that doesn't diminish the city's love for one of its greatest players.

If anyone in Miami deserves this type of recognition, it's Wade. Of course, Dan Marino is another Miami legend, but he already has a street named after him. It's about time the city of Miami did the same for Wade.
