Wade will certainly start and play, but just how well can he overcome yet another health problem?
He's fought a flu-like bug since late in the Detroit series. A rib injury slowed him in last year's playoffs. And he's also dealt with a sprained wrist, a few sprained ankles, back spasms and a rib contusion in his short career.
But he's never missed a game because of injury. After scoring 42 points, including 15 in the game-changing fourth quarter Tuesday, don't expect him to miss one now, as the Heat trail the Dallas Mavericks, 2-1, in the NBA Finals.
Does Game 6, 2005 ECF, ring any bells?
