Dwyane Wade the superstar in Nets’ Joe Johnson reunion

MIAMI — It was weird seeing Joe Johnson beating the Nets, but watching Dwyane Wade bullying Brooklyn? Yeah, that’s all too fami🦩liar.

Facing the Nets for t꧋he first time since his contract was bought out and he signed with the Heat, Johnson had an understated game but still helped 🌄the Heat to a 110-99 win Monday night. He got plenty of help from Wade and Hassan Whiteside, underscoring just how far apart Johnson’s old team is from his new one.

“It 🌟was surreal. It’d been a long time since I’d played against him. … It was very weird,” s🅰aid Brook Lopez, whose team-high 26 points went to waste. “I’m happy for him, happy for the situation he’s in. He seems to be enjoying it. [I] obviously wish him all the best luck. Wish we could’ve got a win against them.”

The Nets couldn’t, despite facing a Heat team without Go🌌ran Dragic or Chris Bosh. Wade torched them as usual, with a game-high 30 points and nine assists. He posted up, set up like a point-forward on the elbow, ran the attack as a lead guard, abused Sergey Karasev — did almost everything.

Wha🌟t little he didn’t, Whiteside 🅺(27 off the bench) and Johnson (seven assists, four rebounds) did.

“I’m fond of Joe Johnson,” interim coach Tony Brown said. “He helped our young guys as the season progressed. 🏅He’s the ultimate professional, and I wish him nothing but success going forward.”

He just would have preferred the Nets (21-52) had the success Monday. They were within 6꧂9-65 when Miami seized the momentu⛎m with a 9-0 run.

Wade found Justise Winslow for a dunk, then Whiteside hit a turnaround jumper. Wade stripped Bojan Bogdanovic a🐈nd went the other way for a layup. After Sean Kilpatrick lost the ball to Luol Deng, Winslow capped the run with a 3-pointer for a 78-65 cushion with 3:16 left in the period.

The rest was academic.

“It almost looked like [Wade] was a buꩵlly down there. … We had no answer for him,” Brown said, 𝓀adding of Whiteside, “I’d love to be his agent right now.”

Still, with Johnson 11-4 as a starter for Miami (43-30) since his Feb. 27 arrivꦍal, this is one of those situations where everybody wins.

Johnson꧑ is averaging 12.8 points per game, on 51.4 percent shooting and 48 percent from de🍃ep for Miami which is en route to its ninth straight postseason. Meanwhile, the Nets have given minutes to their young wings like Bogdanovic and Karasev.

“We have to approach every game like it’s aဣ Game 7,” Johnson said. “This is the most fun time of the season, gearing up for the postseason. 🌠That’s where I wanted to get to.”

Johnson wasn’t going to get there with Brooklyn, where he spent 🍒parts of four seas🌳ons, but the team was rebuilding, he wasn’t happy with his play, and it was time for all parties to go their separate ways.

“It was touꦰgh,” Johnson said. “💃But at the end of the day, we play this game for the love of it. You really have to respect the game, regardless of the circumstances.”

From Brown to Lo🃏pez, the Nets said Johnson did just that.

“For me, I just learned so much from him,” Lopꦦez said. “He was the consummate professional.”

Winslow got shaken up when he hit the deck after 🙈Lopez rejected his dunk attempt. But the ball bounced up in the air and fell through the rim anyway.🔯 That’s the kind of night it was for the Nets, which saw their streak of 100-point games snapped at seven.
