Heat 92, Hawks 75
In tonight’s NBATV special, the Hawks came out incredibly flat, while the Heat came out firing on all cylinders and never looked back. Miami had a 16 point lead entering the second quarter, while Michael Beasley poured in 20 of his 22 total points in the first half. In the second half, Dwyane Wade finished the deal with 28 points and 8 rebounds. The bad news for Atlanta is that they’ve now lost four straight.
Jamal Crawford had a solid 23 points off the bench, but it obviously wasn’t …

Sixers 108, Nuggets 105
In their second meeting since the return of Allen Iverson to Philadelphia, the Sixers held off a late surge by the Nuggets to win at the Pepsi Center.
Despite having an 8 point lead in the final minutes of the fourth quarter, some big shots by Ty Lawson (23 points) ended up putting the Nuggets within 1 point with seconds to go.

Charlotte 91, Cleveland 88
Holy (explicit), the Bobcats are 2-0 on the road this year.
After starting 1-14 on the road this season, the Bobcats (14-18) have won two in a row against quality opponents: Miami on Friday night, and Cleveland (27-9) tonight, shockingly, after Cleveland looked unstoppable. LeBron James dropped 29 points, grabbed 7 boards, & dished out 6 assists with Mo Williams added 27 of his own.
