[HD 2009 Playoffs] Dwyane Wade Highlights - Hawks Vs. Heat - Game 6

----------------Credit of this video goes to revgen of Mixmakers.net--------- MIAMI — A season-saving victory in the books, guard Dwyane Wade and most Miami Heat teammates walked off the court Friday night with stoical looks. No celebrating or smiles.

"Strictly about business," Wade said. "Now we move on."

To Sunday. To Game 7.

Wade scored 41 points, Michael Beasley busted out of a slump with 22 points and 15 rebounds, and the Heat stayed alive by routing the Atlanta Hawks 98-72 in Game 6 of their best-of-seven Eastern Conference first-round playoff series Friday night.

A back-and-forth series — three decisive victories for the Hawks, three decisive victories for the Heat — will be decided Sunday in Atlanta.

"No pressure on us," Wade said. "We're the underdogs in this series."

Mike Bibby scored all 20 of his points in the first half for Atlanta, which fell behind by 15 in the first quarter, cut the deficit to nine points by halftime, but never really challenged again. Ex-Sonic Flip Murray and Joe Johnson added 13 apiece for the Hawks, who lost a first-round Game 7 last season against Boston.

The Heat-Hawks winner goes to Cleveland to open the second round against LeBron James and the Cavaliers on Tuesday.

"Game 7. That speaks for itself," Hawks forward Josh Smith said. "It's two young teams that want the same thing. We're going to have to come out focused and with energy. Hopefully, we'll answer the challenge."

Atlanta's victories have been by 26, 10 and 15 points. The Heat has prevailed by 15, 29 and 26 points.

"They did what they had to do tonight and played extremely well," Hawks coach Mike Woodson said. "We were just there."

Wade spent two days imploring teammates to be more productive. He mentioned Beasley by name, asking the rookie from Kansas State to live up to his star billing.

Two hours before tipoff, Beasley was on the court, taking shot after shot after shot. He finished 11 of 25 from the floor.

@noformstyle LeBron was the one choked, so why trade Wade? If anyone, Bosh would be the one to be in the trade talks.
