DALLAS (AP) After matching the worst shooting half of his career in the first
24 minutes against Dallas, Dwyane Wade missed his first shot of the third
quarter.
When Amare Stoudemire grabbed the rebound and got the ball right back to
Wade, the Miami star shot it again. And it went in.
Wade bounced back with 16 of his 18 points in the second half and Chris Bosh
led the Heat with 20 in a 93-90 victory against the Mavericks on Wednesday
night.
"I think I missed nine layups early on in the game," said Wade, who was 1 of
11 at halftime and scored his only points with just 48 seconds left in the
second quarter. "Obviously, I understood in the second half I needed to put
the ball in the basket a little bit more for us to win versus a team that can
score the basketball."
Luol Deng finished with 15 points, including his only 3-pointer for a 92-87
lead with 1:04 remaining for Miami. The Heat improved to 9-1 against the
Mavericks with their fourth sweep in five seasons since losing to Dallas in
the 2011 NBA Finals.
Dirk Nowitzki also had a rough first half, but bounced back with 20 of his 28
points after halftime to lead Dallas. The Mavericks played without Deron
Williams after he injured his right hip in a collision two nights earlier in
Atlanta.
Wade gave Dallas a chance to tie in the closing seconds when he missed the
second of two free throws with 15 seconds left, but Raymond Felton missed a
long 3-pointer just before the buzzer when Bosh wouldn't let him get the ball
to Nowitzki.
"I should have taken a timeout and set something up," Dallas coach Rick
Carlisle said. "I thought we had time to get a quick 3, or two, and still
have time to get a steal or a foul."
Hassan Whiteside had 10 points, nine rebounds and five blocks in seven
minutes after missing six games with a left hip injury as the Heat won a
night after a season-best four-game winning streak ended in Houston.
Nowitzki and Wade combined for 21 points in the third quarter after the
offensive stars from Miami's NBA Finals victory a decade earlier were just 3
of 18 from the field in the first half.
But the pair of veterans made seven of their first nine attempts in the third
quarter, and Nowitzki scored all 11 of his points in the first 4:15 of the
quarter.
Wade scored six straight points and eight overall when the Heat took the lead
for good on a 12-0 run that put them up 67-59. He finished 6 of 19 from the
field and had eight rebounds and four assists.
Whiteside came in with 8 minutes left in the second quarter and went into
halftime with eight points, three rebounds and two blocks, both easy
rejections on driving attempts by the smaller J.J. Barea. His first basket
was an authoritative dunk that gave Miami its first lead at 33-32.
Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said the plan was to wait until Friday for
Whiteside's return, but that the 7-footer woke up feeling good.
"It was more than I was expecting," Spoelstra said. "We talked about it and
said why not. We will see what he looks like in the second quarter and we
will go from there."
CAREER NIGHT
Dallas center Zaza Pachulia had a career-best 22nd double-double with 10
points and 15 rebounds. The 13-year veteran had 21 double-doubles with
Atlanta in 2005-06.
TIP-INS
Heat: Miami wore throwback uniforms from the 1990s, with "Heat" in all
capital letters and a flame coming off the "T." It was the first of seven
times the Heat will wear them. ... Goran Dragic had seven points and a
game-high seven assists. ... G Tyler Johnson underwent left shoulder surgery
Wednesday, and the team said there was no timetable for his return.
Mavericks: Rookie G Justin Anderson played 22 minutes, his second-highest
total of the season, with Devin Harris sidelined along with Williams. Harris
missed his sixth straight game with a left big toe sprain. ... Chandler
Parsons scored 12 points in the first quarter for the Mavericks, but was
scoreless on just five shots the rest of the way.
UP NEXT
Heat: At Charlotte on Friday.
Mavericks: Host San Antonio on Friday.
简单说明一些内容：
1.针对最后一波进攻没有喊暂停，Rick Carlisle是这样说的：我确实应该喊个
暂停去做些设定的，我们有时间去快速地做个三分投篮或拿两分， 我们还会
有时间去犯规或抄截。
2.Whiteside在17分钟的上场时间里拿下10分9篮板，特别是重要的5次火锅。
3.Zaza Pachulia拿下10分15篮板，写下了生涯最佳的单季22次双十，他在2005
-2006年在老鹰单季最多是21次。
4.由于Harris和Deron都没上，菜鸟Justin Anderson打了本季第二多的22分钟。
5.本周六日二连战：马刺(主)、灰熊(客)......
另外关于伤兵消息：
http://tinyurl.com/zmovev9
Harris看起来还会错过几场比赛，甚至大概要休到明星赛后了，
Deron状况就比Harris好多了，目前列入逐日观察名单，他本人表示情况好多了
，但还会痛就是，他希望里拜六对马刺就能上。
Rick Carlisle则说，如果不健康就不会让他们上，必须他们处于健康，而且感
觉良好，我们才会确定让他们上场比赛。
