Wade is a cut above in the fourth quarter
The New York Knicks made Dwyane Wade bleed. So he made them pay.
Wade scored 46 points, 15 of them coming in a dramatic 19-0 spurt that erased a huge deficit in the final nine minutes and carried the Miami Heat to a 120-115 win over the Knicks on Saturday night.
After taking a shot to the mouth that drew blood -- but no foul -- late in the third quarter, Wade tied a franchise record with 24 points in the fourth, plus he added 10 assists. Jermaine O’Neal had 18 points for the Heat.
Nate Robinson led the Knicks with 29 points off the bench but missed a three-pointer that would have tied it in the final seconds.
