When Dwyane Wade is on his game the Miami Heat are unbeatable. Last night Wade looked like the 2006 NBA Finals MVP. Wade finished the game with 33 points on 14 of 25 shooting from the field. Wade also had 6 rebounds, 6 steals, and 4 rebounds. Talk about an all-around game.

There is no question that Wade is not 100 %

“Of course he’s hurting,” LeBron James said. “He’s been playing with a bum knee all year.”

“I knew I was on when I took it over the guy’s head and dunked it on the break,” Wade said. “That was a little vintage right there.”

Just how well Wade was playing was evident by a third quarter play he made. He stole a Danny Green pass and headed on the fast break. Gary Neal was back but Wade brought the ball over his head and went right around Neal. Wade than threw down a monster one hand dunk with authority. Check out this play below.

“I needed a game like this,” Wade said. “But my teammates needed a game like this from me. Needed me to be aggressive. Needed me to play the way that I’m capable of. Most important, they needed the Big Three to play the way we’re capable of.”

No one has made more difficult shots in this NBA finals than Tony Parker. We all remember the crazy shot he made in game 1 on LeBron James, well in Game 4 it was more of the same for Parker.

Late in the 2nd quarter Parker received a pass from Danny Green and went right around Norris Cole with the shot clock ticking down. He was then meant by James. With James in his way Parker went under James with a crazy scoop shot. Check it out below.

After a horrible Game 3 LeBron James picked up his game big time in Game 4. James finished with 33 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, and 2 blocks. One of those blocks came on Spurs big man Tim Duncan.

Late in the 3rd quarter Manu Ginobili drove the lane and threw a no look behind the head pass to Duncan. It looked like Duncan was going to have a wide open dunk. However, James came up of nowhere to block Duncan’s shot. After the block James picked up the ball and led the Heat on a fast break. Check it out below.

Chris Bosh should be a little less richer after he flopped real bad in Game 4. I would be shocked if the NBA doesn’t fine him $5,000 for flopping. This is one of the worst flops you will ever see check it out below.

Tim Duncan barley touches Bosh, but Bosh flops around like someone really hit him.

Some say this is a smart play, to me this disrespects the game, if you want to flop around go become an actor. I glad the NBA came up with a fine for players who flop. This would hopefully stop it from happening in every game , but sadly it’s just the same as last year. Basketball isn’t soccer, but it is turning into it.

So far the MVP of this year’s NBA Finals has been Danny Green, Yes Danny Green. In Game 3 Green was part of NBA history. As a team the Spurs hit 16 threes, 7 of which came from Green. Green was 1 off the NBA Finals record of 8 three pointers in a game. Not bad for a player that was cut 3 times during his career.

Green is 12 of 14 his last two games behind the three point line. So far in the finals Green has made 15 three pointers that is more than any Spurs player in a final. Robert Horry had 15 in 2005.

Through 3 games Green is outscoring LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. Green has 56 points, while James has 50 and Wade has 43.

Green is not only playing great offense but solid defense also. He is helping control James. Last game he came up with a huge block on James that lead to a Gary Neal three pointer right before half.

“All of my teammates and Pop, they do a great job of encouraging me. They continue to tell me to shoot the ball. They continue to tell me whenever I’m open, to let it fly,” Green said.

It was raining threes last night in San Antonio. The Spurs set a NBA Finals record in making 16 three pointers in route to their 113-77 victory. The Spurs now have a 2-1 series lead. The previous record of threes in a game was 14.

Most of the damage was done by two players Danny Green and Gary Neal. The two combined to make 13 three pointers with Green hitting 7 and Neal making 6. The two only missed 6 three point attempts. Kawhi Leonard added 2 and Tony Parker had 1. Check out all 16 of the three pointers below.

“Those guys shot incredibly,” Duncan said. “Gave us the breathing room when we needed it.”

“It’s a dream come true,” Neal said. “Me and Danny both went through a lot of stuff together. We were guys that showed up two hours before practice started to get shots up and to prove to the coaching staff that we belong, and we’re going to do whatever we need to do to get minutes.
