Heat avenge loss to Spurs
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 16 - 03 - 2011

MIAMI: Chris Bosh scored 30 points and grabbed 12 rebounds, and Dwyane Wade scored 29 as the Miami Heat avenged their worst loss of the season by rolling past the NBA-leading Spurs 110-80 Monday.
LeBron James finished with 21 points, eight assists and six rebounds for the Heat, who have won three straight and moved within two games of Eastern Conference front-runners Boston and Chicago. Miami lost 125-95 in San Antonio on March 4, the midpoint of a five-game slide that now seems all but forgotten after wins over the Los Angeles Lakers, Memphis Grizzlies and now the Spurs.
Tony Parker scored 18 points and Tim Duncan added 14 for the Spurs, who had won 15 of their last 18 against Miami.
Lakers 97, Magic 84: At Los Angeles, Pau Gasol scored 23 points and Kobe Bryant added 16 while playing on a sprained left ankle as the Los Angeles Lakers scored their 10th win in 11 games over Orlando.
Andrew Bynum had 10 points, a career high-tying 18 rebounds and four blocks as the two-time defending NBA champions opened a seven-game homestand with another impressive post-All-Star effort.
The Lakers (48-20) also drew virtually even with the Dallas Mavericks (47-19) for second place in the Western Conference standings.
Dwight Howard had 22 points, 15 rebounds and nine turnovers.
Jazz 112, Sixers 107, OT: At Salt Lake City, Andrei Kirilenko scored seven of his 16 points in overtime as short-handed Utah beat Philadelphia.
The Jazz led by as many as 21 points in the second quarter, 18 in the third and 15 in the fourth before Philadelphia rallied. The Sixers had a 103-101 lead with 11.5 seconds left in regulation thanks to a 14-point quarter by Andre Iguodala.
C.J. Miles' driving layup tied it and Iguodala missed what would have been the game-winner. Kirilenko then took over, hitting a 3-pointer, putback dunk and two free throws to seal the win.
Kings 129, Warriors 119: At Sacramento, California, Marcus Thornton scored 42 points and Samuel Dalembert had 27 in what might have been the final meeting ever in Sacramento against Golden State.
Rockets 95, Suns 93: At Houston, Kevin Martin scored 23 points, Chuck Hayes had a career-high 21 points and nine rebounds as Houston snapped a seven-game losing streak to Phoenix.
Nets 88, Celtics 79: At Newark, New Jersey, Brook Lopez scored 20 points, and Deron Williams added 16 and made the clinching 3-pointer, as New Jersey extended its longest winning streak in three years to five games.
Thunder 116, Wizards 89: At Washington, Kevin Durant scored 32 points and Russell Westbrook had 18 points and 12 assists as Oklahoma City downed Washington.
Nuggets 114, Hornets 103: At New Orleans, Ty Lawson scored 23 points as Denver combined for 17 3-pointers in a victory over New Orleans.
Grizzlies 105, Clippers 82: At Memphis, Tennessee, Zach Randolph had 30 points and 12 rebounds to help Memphis snap a two-game losing streak.
