Wade lifts Heat past Pacers in OT
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 12 - 03 - 2012

Dwyane Wade scored 28 points, including the game-winning basket with .01 of a second remaining in over-time, to lift the Miami Heat over Indiana 93-91 Saturday.
LeBron James, who sank a 3-pointer with 11 seconds remaining in regulation that pushed the game into the extra period, scored 27 points and grabbed eight rebounds.
The Heat, whose home win streak of 12 games is the longest since 2007, improved to 31-9 while the Pacers, led by 19 points from Danny Granger and 15 by David West, fell to 23-15.
Layups by West and Granger gave Indiana an 89-85 lead 1:34 into over-time. Wade hit 1-of-2 free throws to pull the Heat within three points but a Granger hook shot put the Pacers ahead 91-86 with 2:03 remaining.
James answered with a 3-pointer from the top of the arc and Chris Bosh followed with a jumper to equalize, setting the stage for Wade's dramatic game winner.
Wade dribbled just inside the 3-point arc and made an off-balance shot over a defender that went into the cylinder just before the final buzzer, touching off a chest-bump celebration between James and Wade.
Rockets 112, Nets 106: Goran Dragic had 23 points and 8 assists, Luis Scola scored a go-ahead tip-in with 62 seconds left and Houston beat the host Nets to snap a five-game losing streak. Gerald Green had a career-high 26 points going 10 of 15 in just his seventh game for the Nets since being signed from the NBA Development League, and MarShon Brooks added 23 points.
Both teams were without their starting point guard, as the Nets' Deron Williams was nursing a strained right calf and the Rockets' Kyle Lowry was recovering from a fever.
Bulls 111, Jazz 97: Derrick Rose had 24 points and 13 assists, Carlos Boozer scored 27 and Chicago pounded visiting Utah.
Kyle Korver scored a season-high 26 points, and the Bulls got back to winning after their season-high eight-game streak ended with a loss to Orlando Thursday. They turned a 7-point halftime lead into a 16-point advantage going into the fourth quarter and came away with a lopsided victory on a night when both teams were short-handed.
Pistons 105, Raptors 86: Rodney Stuckey had 20 points and 8 assists and Brandon Knight scored 19 first-half points as Detroit routed visiting Toronto.
The Raptors lost Jose Calderon to a sprained ankle in the second quarter. He did not return to the game, and his status for Sunday's game against Milwaukee was uncertain.
Suns 98, Grizzlies 91: Jared Dudley scored 19 points to lead six Phoenix players in double figures and the Suns beat visiting Memphis for their fifth straight home win.
The surprising Grizzlies, one of the top teams in the Western Conference, were 4-0 since the All-Star break.
Thunder 122, Bobcats 95: James Harden scored 22 of his career-high 33 points in the first half, Kevin Durant had 26 points and Russell Westbrook added 23 as Oklahoma City beat Charlotte.
Trail Blazers 110, Wizards 99: LaMarcus Aldridge had 30 points and 10 rebounds to lead visiting Portland past Washington.
Rubio out: The rookie Ricky Rubio, the Minnesota Timberwolves point guard, will miss the rest of the season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.
Without Rubio Saturday, the host Wolves lost, 95-89, to New Orleans, which has won only 10 games this season. In another outing Golden State beat Dallas 111-87.
