Wade gets 50 as Heat win in 3OT
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 16 - 03 - 2009

Dwyane Wade scored 50 points as the Miami Heat pulled off two huge last-ditch rallies to beat the Utah Jazz in a triple-overtime epic 140-29 on Saturday.
The Heat erased a seven-point deficit in the final 55 seconds of regulation to force the extra period, then gave up the first eight points of the first overtime before roaring back again.
The second overtime had five ties, the last coming when Deron Williams hit a jumper with 3.4 seconds left.
But the Jazz wouldn't take the lead again, and Wade sealed it with a pair of foul shots with 44.4 seconds left - tying his career-high in scoring on a day when he passed Alonzo Mourning to become the franchise's leading scorer.
Wade added 10 rebounds and nine assists, Jermaine O'Neal added 28 points and eight rebounds, and Mario Chalmers scored 23. Williams led Utah with 30 points.
Timberwolves 108, Bobcats 100: At Minneapolis, rookie Kevin Love scored 22 points, and Rodney Carney and Ryan Gomes added 21 each as Minnesota snapped a four-game skid against Charlotte and handed the Bobcats their third straight loss.
Gerald Wallace had 26 points to lead Charlotte.
The Bobcats entered the day one-half game behind Chicago and Milwaukee for the Eastern Conference's final playoff spot.
Bulls 97, Hornets 79: At Chicago, Ben Gordon scored 27 points and John Salmons added 24 as Chicago pounded surging New Orleans despite another strong effort by Chris Paul.
Paul scored 29 after back-to-back 30 point performances despite the Bulls' best efforts to contain him. Paul hit 13 of 20 shots while dishing out six assists and grabbing six rebounds. But he got little help.
Spurs 88, Rockets 85: At Houston, Tony Parker scored 28 points, and Tim Duncan added 15 points and 12 rebounds as San Antonio beat Houston.
Nuggets 107, Clippers 94: At Denver, Nene and Renaldo Balkman each had a double-double to help the Nuggets spoil Marcus Camby's return to Denver.
Suns 106, Thunder 95: At Phoenix, Leandro Barbosa scored 11 of his 22 points in the final 6-1/2 minutes to help Phoenix rally past Oklahoma City and snap a six-game losing streak.
The victory pulled Phoenix to within five games of Dallas for the final playoff spot in the West with 16 to play.
