Warriors-Heat Preview

While the Golden State Warriors have pulled out wins on the first four stops of their longest road trip of the season, they could have their hands full with a visit to Miami up next.

Having experienced very little road success in this series, the Warriors continue a seven-game trek Wednesday night against a Heat team that's proved especially dominant on its own court.

Golden State (14-7) has picked up the pace following an uneven start, winning seven of eight and 11 of 14. Much of that success can be attributed to a significant improvement on the road, where the Warriors have compiled an 8-4 record after going 11-22 last season.

"We came in here and worked our tails off and we prepared ourselves for this season," coach Mark Jackson said. "I didn't put any limitations on them. But we're 14-7 with eight road wins."

The Warriors, on the verge of their longest road winning streak since taking six straight in 2004-05, figure to face one of their stiffer tests Wednesday. Golden State has dropped 14 of 16 in Miami dating to 1995, including the last three while allowing the Heat to shoot 50.0 percent from the field.

Miami (14-5) is shooting an NBA-best 51.8 percent and scoring a league-high 108.6 points per game at home, where it's won 10 of 11 on the season. The only blemish came Thursday in a stunning 112-92 loss to a New York team that was missing Carmelo Anthony.

While Dwyane Wade had just 13 points and shot 3 of 13 against the Knicks, he's been outstanding in helping the Heat get back on track. After going 9 for 12 from the floor and scoring 26 in a 106-90 win over New Orleans on Saturday, he shot a career-best 84.6 percent (11 for 13) and had 26 points again in a 101-92 victory over Atlanta on Monday.

"Just trying to be as efficient as I can," Wade said. "Some nights you go for 11 for 13. Some nights you go 3 for 13. But you just try to continue to be aggressive and continue taking shots."

Wade, shooting a career-high 50.6 percent, is averaging 29.5 points versus Golden State - his highest mark against any team. The eight-time All-Star could find himself in a very intriguing head-to-head battle with Stephen Curry, who's been red-hot during the Warriors' 7-1 run.

Curry has put together a career-high eight consecutive 20-point efforts while going 30 for 58 (51.7 percent) from 3-point range. He was 4 of 7 from beyond the arc in a 104-96 victory at Charlotte on Monday, finishing with 27 points.

The fourth-year player has also averaged 8.1 assists in that stretch.

"The guy's playing at an elite level right now," Jackson said. "I know we keep talking about it and, sooner or later, everybody's going to catch on. But he's a heck of a basketball player."

David Lee, who had 25 points and 11 rebounds Monday, has also come up big. He's averaging 23.6 points and shooting 60.7 percent over the last seven contests, considerably better than his already strong season marks of 18.8 and 51.4.

While Golden State continues to play without injured center Andrew Bogut, Miami could be without forward Udonis Haslem for a second straight game due to the flu.

The Warriors had dropped six straight to the Heat before taking the last matchup 111-106 in overtime Jan. 10, overcoming Curry's absence and a combined 60 points from LeBron James and Wade. Lee had 20 points and 14 boards.

Warriors slip past Heat 97-95

Posted Dec 12 2012 11:34PM

MIAMI (AP) The Golden State Warriors used a savvy play by a rookie and took advantage of a defensive breakdown to surprise the Miami Heat on Wednesday.

Draymond Green, a second-round draft pick out of Michigan State, made a layup with 0.9 seconds left give the Warriors a 97-75 win over the Heat.

The Heat left him open under the basket as there was miscommunication between Ray Allen and Shane Battier.

"With the last shot, Coach didn't point out who specifically was going to take the shot," Green said. "We were going to find out who was open and make the best play. Of course guys are going to go with Klay (Thompson) and Steph (Curry). I just happened to be wide open and (Jarrett Jack) found me."

Klay Thompson tied a season high with 27 points to lead the Warriors, who have won five straight.

"We're on fire right now," Thompson said. "We're going to continue building on this. This is a special win. We haven't played the best competition the last few games but with the Miami Heat, we're showing people we're going to bring it every night. We have a chance to be special."

LeBron James led Miami with 31 points as he reached the 20-point mark for the 25th consecutive game, the longest current streak in the NBA.

After the game, James talked to Green to congratulate him.

"He played hard, it was great competition out there between me and him," James said. "I've also respected him especially in college, a big-time player and no one really gave him a shot, but you can tell he knows how to play the game.

"Any team that got him he will find a way to get minutes because he knows how to play the game and (Golden State) is a good fit for him. It was good to see him out there."

Jack dribbled the ball at the top of the key for the Warriors on the final possession as the clock ticked down before finding Green open underneath the basket.

"I was about to shoot it," Jack said. "... I was about to jump and in the corner of my eye I saw Draymond and I was able to make the pass and he converted the basket."

Green caught the pass in mid-air and made the basket as Battier was late in coverage.

"I think I showed too early," Battier said. "It was my responsibility. I got anxious. They made a nice play and burned for us our over-anxious play out there, my over-anxious play."

James' jumper from the baseline banged off the rim giving Golden State the win as Miami lost for just the second time in 12 home games and did not score in the final 3:18.

"You have to give Golden State a lot of credit for this road trip they are on right now, five straight," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "It doesn't matter where you're doing that on the road, that's impressive. They took control of this game. They were playing more consistently with more force, more rhythm, execution, and they dug out a good win tonight."

David Lee scored 22 points and grabbed 13 rebounds and Jack added 20 points off the bench for the Warriors.

Wednesday's victory over the NBA champs adds to their best start since 1991-92 improving to 15-7 and 9-4 on the road.

Golden State took a 77-74 lead into the fourth quarter after leading for most of the third.

After hitting a 3 to tie the game at 87, James gave the Heat their first lead since early in the third with a turnaround 18-footer with 6:39 left for an 89-87 advantage.

The teams played a one-possession game over the next four minutes before Lee knocked down a pair of free throws to tie the game at 95 with 1:54 left.

The score was still tied at 95 with under a minute remaining. Allen had a chance to give the Heat a lead with 46 seconds left. Lee followed by missing a driving layup. Battier's miss from the corner with 12 seconds left gave the Warriors an opportunity in the closing seconds.

"Ray got two clean looks, Shane got a clean look, Chris had some daylight on his roll to the rim, for the most part our execution going down the stretch we've had a lot of those games where that ball is going in and it changes your perspective," Spoelstra said.

The Heat received a scare in the second quarter when Lee sent James to the floor with a flagrant foul sending James to the floor on his back.

James popped up quickly, but spent the next couple of minutes stretching out his right shoulder before knocking down the free throw and hitting a shot on the ensuing possession for a 47-43 lead.

"I'll be all right," said James, who had an ice pack on his shoulder after the game. "It will be sore tomorrow, but I'll be ready by Saturday. That's all that matters."

Moments later, Dwyane Wade was poked in the eye by Thompson while trying to fight through a screen. With Wade's head down, Chris Bosh ran into Wade knocking him to a floor. After staying down on the floor, Wade eventually got to his feet and went to the locker room holding the back of his neck with 3:11 left in the half.

"Right now it's fine," Wade said. "Hopefully it doesn't stiffen up on me tonight."

Thompson helped the Warriors take a 53-52 lead into halftime by scoring 21 points including five 3-pointers. Thompson scored 14 points in the second quarter, including 11 in a four-minute span.

Wade returned for the second half and opened the scoring with a dunk.

Both teams got off to a good start offensively, but it was defensive efforts by both teams which sparked the first highlight of the game.

After Stephen Curry picked off a pass by James, Wade returned the favor deflecting Curry's pass and ran toward the sideline saving the ball with an around-the-back pass to Mario Chalmers. Chalmers then found James, who tipped a pass to Wade for a layup and a 23-22 lead.

"We played against two guys (James and Wade) that will go down as all-time greats," Warriors coach Mark Jackson said. "For us to grind out a victory against the champs, it's special."

NOTES: Thompson has made at least five 3-pointers in three of his past five games. ... Prior to the game, Warriors head coach Mark Jackson said he believes Wade is the third-best shooting guard in NBA history behind Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant. "I see a guy I love as a basketball fan," Jackson said of Wade. ... Curry had his career-best streak of eight consecutive games with at least 20 points snapped as he scored nine points.

Notebook: Warriors 97, Heat 95

Zachary Paul, For NBA.com
Posted Wed Dec 12, 2012 11:35 PM - Updated Wed Dec 12, 2012 11:35 PM

THE FACTS: The Golden State Warriors defeated the Miami Heat 97-95 Wednesday night at AmericanAirlines Arena. The Warriors (15-7) scored the winning points on Draymond Green's layup with 0.9 seconds remaining, holding the Heat (14-6) scoreless the final 3:18. Green received the pass from guard Jarrett Jack, who found him open under the basket.

Golden State was led by guard Klay Thompson, who scored 27 points on 11-for-21 shooting. He made 5 of 13 from 3-point range. Forward David Lee finished with 22 points and 13 rebounds, while Jack added 20 points off the bench.

The balanced production was able to offset a slow night from guard Stephen Curry, who finished with nine points on 4-for-10 shooting. After Jack's basket, the Heat had a chance to win or force overtime. LeBron James caught the inbounds pass, but missed a turnaround jumper from the corner. James finished with a game-high 31 points and five assists, but the Heat failed to receive their usual balance. Center Chris Bosh scored 21 points, with most of the damage being done in the second half.

Guard Dwyane Wade (14 points) started strong before leaving late in the first half after being hit in the neck by Thompson and teammate Mario Chalmers on the same play. He returned to start the second half, but scored just six points after halftime.

QUOTABLE:"They're the best team and for us to leave out of here [with a win], it's a total team effort. Especially when our best players are having a tough night, there's something about this team that refuses to quite."

--Warriors coach Mark Jackson

THE STAT: The Heat were unusually sloppy, committing 18 turnovers. Those mistakes led to 19 points.

TURNING POINT: The Warriors scored the game's final six points to complete the upset, including Green's winning basket.

QUOTABLE II: "You have to give the Golden State Warriors a lot of credit for this road trip that they are on right now. It doesn't matter where you are playing, if you win five straight on the road, that is impressive. They took control of this game. They played more consistently with the more force and rhythm. They showed poise -- poise more of a veteran team to be able to make that last shot."

-- Heat coach Erik Spoelstra

HOT: Thompson scored 21 of his team-high 27 points in the first half, setting the tone. Although he struggled in the second half, it was his fast start that gave the Warriors confidence to compete. He also had seven rebounds and four assists.

NOT: Shane Battier shot just 1-for-6 from the field. He missed an open look from the corner that would have put the Heat ahead late. Battier has struggled offensively since sustaining a sprained knee that forced him to miss three games.

GOOD MOVE: For a young team, the Warriors showed a lot of poise down the stretch. After leading most of the second half, they fell behind late in the fourth quarter. Instead of folding against the veterans, the youthful Warriors rallied to victory.

BAD MOVE: The Heat once again struggled defending the 3-point line. The Warriors were the beneficiary of several open looks, especially in the first half. Spoelstra has expressed his concern about the problem all season.

INSIDE THE ARENA: Boxing great Floyd Mayweather Jr. was in attendance for the contest in courtside seats.

NOTABLE: Heat guard Ray Allen moved into 11th-place on the NBA career scoring list, surpassing Adrian Dantley. ... Udonis Haslem, who sat out Monday versus the Atlanta Hawks because the flu, made his third start of the season. ... Warriors forward Lee recorded his fifth straight 20-point, 10-rebound game. ... James has scored at least 20 points in a franchise-record 25 straight regular-season games. ... The Warriors are off to their first 5-0 road trip since 1978.

UP NEXT: For the Heat, Saturday vs. Wizards, Tuesday vs. Timberwolves, Thursday @ Mavericks. For the Warriors, Friday @ Magic, Saturday @ Hawks, Tuesday vs. Hornets.
