Owner Real Deal Posted March 22, 2012 Author Owner Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 MIAMI -- Chris Bosh got the Miami Heat started. Dwyane Wade provided the big finish. Wade scored 14 of his 31 points in the fourth quarter, Bosh made his first six shots and finished with 23 and the Heat held off the Orlando Magic 91-81 on Sunday night for their 13th straight win at home. LeBron James finished with 14 points, 12 rebounds, seven assists and five steals for the Heat. His pass with 3:46 left made it past two Magic defenders and set up Bosh for perhaps the clincher, a three-point play that stretched Miami's lead to 84-73. "He's the biggest piece of our team," James said of Bosh. "And when he's going, we're very dangerous. ... That's what it was all about tonight." Well, that and defense. Orlando scored 12 points in a span of nearly 16 minutes in the second half, finishing with its lowest point total in 11 games. "Our effort defensively early in the game was not there," Magic coach Stan Van Gundy said. "We did not come to play. That's inexcusable particularly playing on the road against a team this good and then the 20 turnovers." Dwight Howard finished with 18 points and 11 rebounds for Orlando. Quentin Richardson was 5 for 7 on 3-pointers for a 15-point night for the Magic, who split four games with Miami this season, both teams going 2-0 at home. The win kept Miami (33-11) one game in the loss column behind Chicago (37-10) for the NBA's best record and top Eastern Conference seed.http://www.cbssports.com/nba/gametracker/recap/NBA_20120318_ORL@MIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
