According to Dwyane Wade, Dwyane Wade does not want a farewell tour in the same vein as the one that Kobe Bryant got a few years back. During the interview above, ESPN’s Jorge Sedano recalled that LeBron James and Chris Bosh said that Wade was deserving of one of those prolonged goodbyes. The topic comes up at the 14:13 mark.
“I don’t want one of those,” the 36-year-old said. “I talked to Kobe about that. He was like, ‘It was exhausting. As flattering as it was, it was very exhausting as well.’ I’m not a narcissist like that—I’m not calling Kobe a narcissist, he earned that and he needed that—but I can’t say I want a farewell tour like Kobe Bryant. That’s not who I am.”
Wade also said that when the time actually does come to permanently hang up his sneakers, he’ll reveal it to the world in his own way. “When the time comes, I don’t even wanna talk about it yet because it’s not here yet,” he said. “But when the time comes, I’ll announce it in my own D-Wade fashion the way that I do, and hopefully I can move on from it and live on the memories from that point on.”
After rejoining the team that he played with for the first 13 seasons of his career just five days ago, Wade also said that he’ll finish out his career in Miami. When is the end? Your guess is probably as good as any.

Hahahha
No offense but you wouldn't get one anyway Dwyane.
Not like he's getting one anyway.
Dwade AKA Lebron's bitch
Main reason Kobe got his farewell tour is because everytime he showed up to any Arena he was an instant sales boost. Opposing teams fans were willing to pay triple just to see him play.Even with those crappy mid 2000's Lakers. Nobody ever gave a fuck about Wade like that. Just look at the Heat's home attendance after Shaq left and then after Lebron left. They could barely fill the Area and Wade was still there. So a Wade farewell tour? Fuck No!
3 championships to miami come on now he deserve a farewell tour & more he did alot for the 305
*Dwyane Wade
Your getting one rather you like it or not flash
I feel like kobe got to his head
Wade should’ve said this and this only
I’m not Kobe
Who said Wade deserve a farewell tour?
You ain't Kobe nigga
Legend has it that Paul Pierce is still looking for his farewell tour 😂😂😂😂😂
He ain't Kobe…
lol calm down youre good but not kobe bryant good
He definitely one of my favorite players I honestly wished he would have stayed with the Cavaliers but one good thing about the situation by law since he played with the Cavaliers for almost half the season if by chance the Cavaliers win a championship he is elgible to get a championship ring from the Cavaliers because he played a lot of games with them this season
He's retiring in 2019. Confirmed.
He's not worthy of one of them tours anyways. No one is going to come to the game just to see D Wade's last games like they did for kobe. All those games were sell outs. It won't be sellouts for D. Wade. I love the guy im just stating facts!
why would he want a Kobe Bryant type tribute when he is way better then a Kobe “need Phil Jackson”Bryant😕
no more frazier…expecially not on basketball topics.
Sorry wade my favorite player but he wasn't even getting the equivalent to the Kobe farwell.
At least spell his name right, damn. Don't talk about sports.
Atleast spell his name right you bum
Dwyane Wade
