Wade carries Heat to the Conference finals.
Eastern Conference - Semi-Finals - Game #4.
---------------------------------------

Image Heat - Bulls Image
-------------------------------------[99 - 94]

Image
D-Wade secured a second straight trip to the Conference Finals, where the C's are waiting.

Recap - Highlights - Play-by-Play - Key performers

It was D-Wade show in Miami, as he scored 38 points and secured a second straight trip to the conference finals for El Heat.
The Heat wore the same "El Heat" jersey, as Wade did back in 2009, when he scored 48 and 50 respectively in two games,
one as we all remember he capped off with the steal and a running three-pointer at the buzzer against who? The Bulls.

The Celtics are up next, who swept the Milwaukee Bucks in three games, led by their big three, which brought them the
championship in 2008 and 2009. Paul Pierce is averaging just 3.7 points these playoffs, but Kevin Garnett in his 16th
season, is torching the opponents, scoring over 29 points a night to go along with 12 rebounds. Ray Allen adds 25 points
a night. Dwyane Wade only trails KG in points per game during the playoffs, behind by just 0.2 PPG.

Tha last time these clubs met, D-Wade scored 22 points in the fourth quarter to rally for a 114-104 comeback victory.

The Celtics were down big and didn't take out KG. KG was injured with 4 minutes left.

Recap - Highlights - Play-by-Play - Key performers

Dwyane Wade recorded his second straight double-double in the Conference finals and led an efficient attack,
as well as a tight D to blowout the C's in game #2. The Celtics tried to narrow the lead late, but it turned out
for the worst for them, as their leading scorer, rebounder and shot blocker Kevin Garnett suffered a leg injury
and had to be helped off the court by teammates.

The Cetlics medical staff revealed a minor sprain and Garnett will be available for game #3 at TD Garden. The Heat
shot 53% from the filed, while the Celtics converted just 34% of their shots.

Wade's jumper leads Miami to the Finals.
Eastern Conference Finals - Game #3.
-------------------------------------

Image Image Image

Image
Dwyane Wade came through in the 4th, scoring 19 points, including the eventual game-winner.

Recap - Highlights - Play-by-Play - Key performers

The Heat were a win away from their first trip to the finals since 2006 and D-Wade didn't want to play a game #4,
as he scored 19 points in the fourth quarter, including the game-winner over two defenders with 1.5 left. Michael
Beasley also was a key, as he deflected the inbound pass from Paul Pierce, who had tied the game with 18 seconds
on the clock. Dwyane is ready to repeat his performance he had against Dallas back in '06

"We have a completely different team now. We are facing a completely different team. Houston has Yao, the MVP,
so it's gonna be tough of course. I think the key is the play of our bigs - Tyson and Ben. Their job is to stop Yao."

"I could have scored 50 tonight, but without Ben, we couldn't win this game. He has a great acquisition for us."
Ben Wallace limited Kevin Garnett to 2 points and a rebound in the final 12 minutes, forcing him to 3 turnovers.
Kevin Garnett is averaging over 29 points in the playoffs.

Dwyane Wade : 35 points, 10 assists, 14-27 FG, 2-6 3PT, 5-5 FT [POTG]

MIAMI, FL : Dwyane Wade led the Heat to the league's best record, but the MVP trophy went to Yao Ming.
D-Wade has a chance to prove, why he shouldn't have been the runner-up. Both have continued their
MVP-worthy seasons in the Playoffs, as both have increased their PPG rating. Wade has also increased his
APG up to a playoff best 7.5 per game.

Erik Spoelstra's concentration is 100% on Yao Ming."We have worked on defensive match-ups and some
defensive help strategies. You'll probably see Ben starting at center, when the Finals tip off,"
said coach
Spoelstra during the team practice in American Airlines Arena. Houston has more offensive threats however,
as Steve Francis, Ron Artest and T-Mac all average double figures.

Tracy Mcgrady made it past the first round for the first time in his career. "I thank the organization for
helping me and big Yao get the supporting cast we need is necessary for a championship.
" Their bench
includes such threats as Shane Battier, Rafer Alston, Luther Head and Luis Scola. "These guys could start
for any other team, but we are even stronger with them coming off the bench. You could say they were
the key to our success."


Miami has only three players left of their 2006 championship team - D-Wade, Udonis Haslem and Dorell Wright.
"I think we have a better team now," said D-Wade during a press conference. "Sure we don't have Shaq, but we
have Tyson and Big Ben. Also our young guys.. I think we have the assets, we just have to work hard and stop
their stars.
