Wade works his magic on both ends

Heat forward hits deciding free throw, blocks last-gasp layup

? Dwyane Wade made a free throw with 5.2 seconds left and blocked a potential game-winning layup at the buzzer to give the Miami Heat a 90-89 victory over the New Jersey Nets on Monday night.

Wade, who had 23 points, drove on the Nets’ Jason Kidd and was fouled. He made the second of two free throws before blocking Vince Carter’s shot.

The Nets pleaded for a foul, to no avail. Nets coach Lawrence Frank ran halfway across the court to complain about the non-call as the Heat trotted off and celebrated their 10th straight victory over New Jersey.

“All ball,” said Wade on his way to the locker room.
