Finals averages: 34.7 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 2.7 steals, 1.0 blocks per game

In one of the biggest Finals upsets in NBA history, the Miami Heat won 4 straight games after giving up a 2-0 lead to the Dallas Mavericks in the first 2 games of the series. The primary reason for this turnaround was the frankly otherworldly play of The Flash, who averaged 39.3 points, 8.3 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.0 blocks per game for the final 4 games.

In game 3, facing a potential 3-0 series deficit, Wade went OFF for 42 points and 13 rebounds while guiding the Heat to a 98-96 win after they were trailing by 13 points with 6 minutes left in the 4th quarter.

Dwyane Wade also rose to the occasion in a tight game 5, scoring 43 points in a nailbiting 101-100 win that went to overtime. He scored 21 of the Heat's last 31 points in the 4th quarter and overtime combined.

He capped off the series with a stat line of 36 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks in game 6 at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, with 11 points in a tight 4th quarter during which neither team had a lead of more than 4 points.
