Vintage – that is the word to describe
Dwyane Wade’s epic performances against the Spurs in Game 5. And for the third
time though, it appeared to be another blowout game after the other for the NBA
Finals as the Heat leveled their series to 2 apiece after that 106-93 victory
at the Alamo city.
Considering this factor: the last time that
the Spurs have been defeated at an NBA Finals game at home, was during their
duels with then defending-champion Detroit Pistons – and it was way back 2005.
As setback on Game 6 served a victorious game 7 in favor of the home team, just
perfect to dethrone the Pistons and snatched the crown in their hands then.
Well, for whatever reasons, Dwyane Wade
really needed that. He needs to step up big time. It’s not easy for LeBron to
carry the team alone, especially if the Spurs’ defense continues to hound him
along the way. He ended up with 33 markers though.
When was the last time that the Flash
played at the Finals like... well, as the Flash? (I mean the real
superhero-like role). 2006; when the Heat rallied all the way from a 13-point
deficit in Game 3, and from that 2-0 hole to win the championship at the
expense of the then-most-notable Dallas Mavericks.
He ended up with 32 on the game, with big
plays along the way in the fourth quarter.
Can we see more of him in the final 2 or 3
games? We’ll never know, as the Spurs will try to end their last home game of
the season on a very high winning note.
Anyway, the best of seven series is now
down into a best-of-three affair.
