Tim Hardaway Jr. microwaved the Heat.

The Nuggets’ veteran shooting guard sizzled off the bench Wednesday night, scoring 18 points in 24 minutes in Denver’s 122-112 victory over Miami at Ball Arena.

“He’s such a weapon, and he can get his shot off so easily and quickly,” coach David Adelman said. “It’s a big deal. You know, a lot of teams have the athleticism these days, Miami included. But a guy that releases the ball that quickly and gets it off, it’s a big deal. And not to mention, he just really knows how to play.
