The Miami HEAT defeated the Charlotte Hornets 98-95 Friday night at Time Warner Cable Arena. Dwyane Wade led the way for the HEAT with 22 points.
1. Captains Come Through in the Clutch
As been the case all season, both Wade and Chris Bosh got the job done in crunch time. With Miami down a point with 26 seconds left, Bosh aggressively drove inside against Marvin Williams, absorbed contact and finished the play. He also hit the ensuing free throw to give the HEAT a lead they wouldn’t relinquish.
A big reason why they stayed ahead was due to a fantastic steal by Wade with less than 10 seconds to play.
