It seems impossible, but every time LeBron James has a monster game, Dwyane Wade comes right back with his own version of the same. After LeBron's streak of three consecutive triple-doubles came to an end in Sacramento on Friday, he still managed to score 51 points and lead his team to an overtime victory over the Kings. Not to be topped, Wade scored 50 points, grabbed 10 rebounds, and had nine assists in a triple-overtime win over the Utah Jazz.The Heat have had a flair for the dramatic recently. Less than a week ago, Wade hit an incredible buzzer-beater to beat the Bulls in overtime, and while there were no similarly crazy plays on Saturday, the Heat did manage to come back from seven points down with 55 seconds remaining to force the first overtime.
Wade passed Alonzo Mourning to become the franchise's all-time leading scorer on a dunk in the third quarter, when he scored his 21st point of the game. Mourning held the previous record largely due to longevity, as he racked up 9,459 points in 593 career games with the Heat. Wade's model is one of efficiency -- he got there in just 380 games.
Wade is truly having a remarkable year, but is it more remarkable than what LeBron James is doing for the East-leading Cavaliers? Probably not, and honestly, it doesn't matter. Fans of both players should be happy no matter who ends up with the MVP award, as long as we get to watch these two continue to one-up each other like this.
