With the Wizards surging after a huge Antawn Jamison three-pointer and the crowd becoming a factor, Wade did what great players are supposed to do: He recognized a defensive weakness and took advantage of it. When Dixon somehow got stuck guarding him, Wade posted him up, backed him down, wheeled and knocked down a tough leaner, giving Miami an 87-81 lead. Plays like that have begged the question: If a fan was magically named general manager of his favorite team and was given a choice between Wade and LeBron James, who would he choose? Whenever the Heat needed a big bucket, Wade or Damon Jones hit one and the Wizards simply couldn't match.
