Wade Scores Career High 55 vs. Knicks (4/12/2009)

Perhaps this is a reminder that, as the 2004 Charlotte Hornets, 2004 Indiana Pacers, 2005 & 2006 Detroit Pistons and 2006 Dallas Mavericks could all tell you, Dwyane Wade is the most dangerous player in The Playoffs. Wade scored a career-high 55 points, shooting 19-for-30 from the field and setting another career high with six 3-pointers. The win locked Miami into the No. 5 seed. Towards the end of the game, Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni summoned Wade over to the Knicks' bench for a quick word. "It's kind of ridiculous," D'Antoni told him, "that you're this good." Wade left with 1:06 remaining, one point shy of Glen Rice's team record of 56 points.
