Wade and Heat wins one

Wade poured out 42 points despite ailing from a sore knee to bring the Heat to a 98-96 win over the Mavericks. The Mavericks limited O'Neal to just 16 points but had no answer to Wade's wide array of jumpers and layups as well as his great defensive play. Nowitzki led the charge with 30 for the Mavericks while Josh Howard added 21.
