Houston Who???

The other night the Miami Heat faced off against the Houston Rockets. Lebron James scored 38 points, 10 rebounds and six assists. James plainly took over the game. He immediately answered Morris' 3 with one of his own. Three possessions later he found Chris Bosh for a dunk that made it a one-point game. Then he drilled a 3 from 27 feet that pulled the Heat to within one with 1:49 to play. James scored five more points over the final 1:19, his driving layup past Carlos Delfino giving Miami the lead for good with 18.6 seconds left. Miami Heat won over the Houston Rockets 113-110.

Lebron Cant Make Clutch Free Throws

LeBron James had 20 points but missed all four of his free throws in the loss.The Miami Heat focused on shutting down Memphis' post scoring duo of Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol. Grizzlies reserve guard Wayne Ellington made them pay dearly.Bosh scored 22 points and LeBron James had 20 for Miami. Dwyane Wade came in averaging 20.4 points but was held to eight in his first game back after missing Friday night's win at Atlanta with a cold. Miami coach Erik Spoelstra said they expected teams to be coming after the Heat on this six-game road trip.
''There were critical places in where the game turned like sloppy turnovers, missed shots or big baskets that couldn't get us over that hump,'' Spoelstra said. ''They played very well. They played physical, and they did what they needed to do to bring it home.''The Grizzlies had the biggest edge in this game beyond the arc, where they went 14 of 24 (58.3 percent), and at one point were shooting a better percentage from outside the arc than the Heat shot at the free throw line. Miami came in as the league's second-best team at the line, averaging 82.9 percent, but finished 22 of 36 (61.1 percent).
