THERE may be no need for LeBron James and Dwyane Wade to rush their return from injuries.
Mario Chalmers and Chris Bosh proved on Thursday night they can play the starring roles for the Miami Heat in Atlanta.
With James and Wade cheering from the bench, Bosh scored 33 points and the Heat beat the Atlanta Hawks 116-109 in triple-overtime.
Chalmers had 22 of his 29 points after the third quarter for the Heat, including five of Miami's seven points in the third overtime.
"Coach said I had to be aggressive," Chalmers said.
Wade missed his second straight game with a sore left foot and James was held out after he turned his left ankle late in the third quarter of Wednesday night's 118-83 win over Indiana.
Bosh hit a last-second, tying three-pointer at the end of regulation to force the first overtime.
"It was a lucky shot," Bosh said.
Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said his team survived a test of its character.
"That game, the way it went down in the end, was an exercise in absolute endurance and mental and physical toughness," Spoelstra said.
"Both teams played their hearts out there at the end."
In other games, it was: San Antonio 93, Dallas 71; Sacramento 103, Milwaukee 100; and Portland 107, LA Lakers 96.
Joe Johnson had 20 points for the Hawks, who did not score in the third extra period. It was only the 10th time in NBA history a team did not score in an overtime period.
Josh Smith added 17 points and 13 rebounds for Atlanta, which was seeking its second win over the Heat in four days.
The Hawks missed 15 of 46 free throws.
