Would they have won if they had Wade instead of Kyrie?
Wade is like 200 years old ofc not.
No. Wade can't shoot 3s, and at this age he's too old for his driving ability to make up for that. An interesting question IMO is: Would the Cavs have won if they kept Wiggins, then signed a top-tier free agent in the summer of 2015, like Marc Gasol, Aldridge, or DeAndre Jordan?
A lineup of
Kyrie
Wiggins
Lebron
Thompson
Gasol
Might have been able to take the Warriors in 2016 *and* 2017.

No, Wade is incapable of playing two games in a row anymore

Wiggins cant play defense and his offense is based on volume shooting. his 3 point shot was terrible last year but has improved this year. needless to say, he would've not improved that cavs team or this cavs team.

but would Wiggins have developped as much if he stayed in Cleveland with Lebron and Irving claiming all the balls and firing coaches to get puppets instead?
Reminder that wade went to the free throw line 97 times in a 6 game finals series.
He lost that "touch him and thats a foul" privilege when he shouted at stern years ago. Ungrateful cunt.

Kyrie has been a better finals partner than Wade ever was.
What if they had Wilt Chamberlain instead of Deron Williams
