FT MIA 113 LAL 107

"Lakers" made it close. Pride. "Heat" led by 19 after 3 and by 23 three times in the 4th, the last with 8:38 to play. With 2:34 left LAL closed to 5. How about that? From 23 to 5 in 6'. And then to 4 at 1:07. Goodness gracious. LAL outscored us 37-24 in the period--and it wasn't cuz the subs played. LeBron played 40', had 33 pnts on 12/22 (1/8) 8/11 F.T.s, and 11 rebbes. He took seven more shots than the nearest teammate, Russ with 15.

Guess who played more mins than LBJ? DONUT! (?) And he was no donut tonight, team high in mins, 42, pnts, 25, on 8/13 (6/11). Jimmy had a 3W, 20, 10, and 12 in 39'. Jimmy out-rebounded Bam who had 8.

Kyle and Tyler out again. Big O DNPCD. "Heat" now 30-17, LAL 23-24.
