ATLANTA — Dwyane Wade didn't call "bank."

No need. This was the playoffs, not H-O-R-S-E.

With 13 straight points to close the first half and an unlikely 3-pointer off the backboard in the waning minutes, Wade showed it's hard to keep him down two games in a row. He scored 33 points in all, leading the Miami Heat to a 108-93 victory over the Atlanta Hawks that evened their playoff series at one game apiece last night.

"This is where amazing happens," Wade said.

Amazing, indeed. Remember how bad Wade and his Miami teammates looked in a 90-64 loss to open the playoffs? They were that good in Game 2.

Wade already had more points by halftime than he had in Game 1, when he was held to 19 points and turned it over eight times.

Last night was vintage D-Wade — 6-of-10 from 3-point range, 11-of-20 overall, five rebounds, seven assists, two blocked shots and a steal.

Wade was locked in for this one, and his improbable shot with 2:38 left gave the Heat a 101-91 lead, and the Hawks were done.
