As a testament to his success, Wade was chosen as a member of the USA's Olympic basketball team during the 2004 offseason. However, he had a limited role as most of the playing time was given to more experienced veterans. But with his defense, Wade was considered one of the few bright spots on a team that otherwise performed poorly by the standards of U.S. Olympics basketball, eventually finishing with the bronze medal. Wade averaged 7.3 points and 17.5 minutes in the eight games that the USA played in the Olympics. He also earned himself a number two rating in registering steals against Olympic opponents, averaging slightly more than two per game. | As a testament to his success, Wade was chosen as a member of the USA's Olympic basketball team during the 2004 offseason.

Shaquille O'Neal was traded from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Heat in the summer before Wade's second season.

Compared to the previous year, the Miami Heat under Wade and O'Neal improved by 17 games, from a 42-40 record in the 2003-2004 season, to an Eastern Conference-best 59-23 record in 2004-2005. | Shaquille O'Neal was traded from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Heat in the summer before Wade's second season.
