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.
Heat Blog: Dwyane Wade’s 46 Points ‘Breathe New Life Into Heat’
Dwyane Wade was not ready to call it a season. Down by 6 points after the third quarter, god only knows what was going through the mind of D-Wade as he prepared to take the game over and carry his team to a season saving victory. Yes, the season has been saved...for now. Wade bought the Heat another 2 days of work, and we’ll have to wait until Tuesday night to see what they do with it.
Peninsula is Mightier also commented on Wade’s impending free agency, which was repeated ad nauseum on the ABC broadcast.
I know how annoying it was to listen to the ABC announcers continually talk about Dwyane Wade being a free agent and how this could have been his last game in a Heat uniform, but its really not a big deal. They don’t know much about the Heat, just what they see on paper. We have been hearing Wade talk all season (and his whole career, really) about how his heart is in Miami with this city and this team.
Wade wants to stay, he just wants to make sure it’s on a title contending team. Pat Riley and co. have done everything right up until this point to not only prepare to hit the summer free agency as hard as any team, but while doing that they still managed to provide Wade a team that was very competitive all season and go them to the playoffs, which is more then the Knicks and Nets could do as they also have a lot of money to spend. So yeah, the announcers were ignorant...but they just want to make things sound as dramatic as possible. No worries.
Only time will tell on that front.
