MANILA, Philippines — It was Throwback Thursday in San Antonio.

Dwyane Wade flashed his old lethal form to lead the Miami Heat to a resounding 109-93 victory over the San Antonio Spurs to even their NBA Finals series at two games apiece Thursday night (Friday morning in Manila) at the AT&T Center in Texas.

Wade scored 10 points in a game-changing 16-6 run in the fourth period as Miami exacted vengeance on San Antonio and retrieved home court advantage heading into the pivotal Game 5.

The 2006 Finals MVP finished with his best output of the season with 32 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 6 steals.

The Heat’s “Big Three” played their best game in recent memory as LeBron James (33 points, 11 boards, 2 blocks, 2 steals) and Chris Bosh (20 points, 13 boards, 2 blocks, 2 steals) also delivered the goods.

Both squads played nip-and-tuck basketball through the first three quarters until Wade exploded in the fourth and broke the game wide open.

Tim Duncan led the Spurs with 20 points while Tony Parker bucked a strained hamstring to post 15 points and 9 assists. – Rappler.com
