Dwyane Wade hits LeBron James with 3/4-court alley-oop

Dwyane Wade and LeBron James have gotten awfully good at this.

As far as long-distance alley oops go, Wednesday night's effort against the Rockets was actually tame by Wade and James' standards. And yet, Wade still rifles a pass off the bounce with one hand to the perfect spot for James to gracefully lay it in.

It's plays like this that must prompt the Heat's opponents to throw their hands in the air. James and Wade combined for 63 points against the Rockets, outgunning a team that tied an NBA record a night earlier with 23 3-pointers.

And when the Heat can call on this off a jump ball, well, what do you do?
