10 years ago today, LeBron James called Derrick Rose telling him he likes his game and would like to team up after getting whooped by the Celtics

"People always said I didn't recruit. I tried to recruit. I put out a video," Rose said at the morning shootaround in suburban Cleveland. "But it wasn't for me to say that. I felt like the organization was supposed to say that. And they didn't."

"I don't know if (Wade, LeBron, Bosh) looked at it or played the video. But I made a video," Rose said. "But at the time, it wasn't for me to say that."

That's not his personality," Wade said of Rose. "Don't want to do something that's not in someone's personality. We knew he wanted us to come in. He didn't have to be on our line all the time. We knew that. We just made a decision that was better for us."
