Suns Go Down in Heated Game
The game was anticipated as one of the season's best and it didn't disappoint, thanks to the Dwyane Wade and the entire Suns team.
Miami jumped out to an early lead, but Phoenix clawed its way back into the game, nearly taking the lead before half time. While Wade performed very well in the first half, he was only warming up for ended up being the play(s) of the year at the end of the 3rd quarter.
With time running out and Amare Stoudemire driving the lane, Wade came from behind and blocked the shot straight down, recovering it in the process, and then heaving it over 50 feet straight through the net on the other side of the court. If the Suns had anything left in them before that shot, it left very quickly as Miami seemingly walked through the 4th quarter enroute to their league leading 52nd victory and the NBA's Southeast division title.
The only bright side for Phoenix in this game, was the return of Quentin Richardson's shot. Q' kept the Suns in the game by himself, scoring nearly 20 points in the 4th quarter alone on long 3-pointers and incredible layups & dunks.
