Dwyane Wade’s 46 Points Allow Heat To Stave Off Elimination, Beat Celtics 101-92

Dwayne Wade put on quite a performance in Miami’s 101-92 win over Boston. To give you an idea of what kind of night it was for him, watch Wade put Kevin Garnett on a poster.

In Sunday’s loss to the Heat, Boston twice rallied from deficits greater than 16 points, but in the end, the Celtics just couldn’t compete the comeback as Miami held on for the 101-92 win, extending the series at least one more game. So what was the Heat’s not-so-secret secret to the win? Dwyane Wade. As our CelticsBlog writes, “... it was possible that Wade could win a game all by himself and today, that’s pretty much what happened.”

It might have been one last highlight of the Miami Heat’s 2009/10 season. Hell, it could have been one last highlight in Dwyane Wade’s Miami Heat career. But as SB Nation’s Heat blog Peninsula is Mightier writes, Wade’s 46-point performance gave Miami new life in a series the Celtics have dominated.

Peninsula is Mightier also commented on Wade’s impending free agency, which was repeated ad nauseum on the ABC broadcast.
