Photo of the Day: Wade's Hot Hand

After Boston's win in Game 3 of the first round series against the Heat, I stated that we may need to be preparing for a sweep. And to anyone who has been watching this series closely it seemed like the Celtics had finally found a way to win. But Dwayne Wade wasn't going to let the Celtics end his season that easily, well at least his Right hand wouldn't.

Wade led Miami to a 101-92 victory yesterday afternoon by scoring 46 points, 30 of which came in the 2nd half. After hitting his third 3-pointer in three minutes, and when it looked like the Heat's one man offense couldn't get any hotter, Wade ran down the court screaming at his hand.

"We were just having a little conversation," said Wade, who had 19points in the fourth quarter, including 4 of 4 from the 3 point line. "I was just telling him he was hot."

If the Heat want to win this series Wade would have to play at that level for the next 3 games in a row. Unfortunately, it appears that Wade and his right hand were only successful at delaying the inevitable.
