Prior to the last game, Wade's effort outdueled Kemba Walker's 37-point performance in a tight Game 6. The 34-year-old Heat guard scored 10 of his 23 points in the 4th quarter, including a three-pointer just 46 seconds from the final buzzer and a contested jumper with just 19.5 seconds left.
Although Hornets came out strong early, the Heat remained close because of flurries by Luol Deng and Wade. Eventually, Miami took control in the 2nd quarter because of Hassan Whiteside's four blocks, which triggered a 20-7 run, and gave Hornets a 13-point deficit.
Moreover, Kemba Walker's career high of 37 points is not enough to end the series. Charlotte Hornets struggled all throughout the game, forcing Walker to carry the scoring load.
