Warriors too hot for Heat
Print Edition
The National Basketball Association champions Golden State Warriors rode a dominant third quarter to a decisive 123-95 victory over the Heat in Miami on Sunday.
Miami took a 36-33 first-quarter lead despite 16 points in the period from Stephen Curry.
鈥淲hen they smell blood, they go for it,鈥 said Miami coach Erik Spoelstra. 鈥淪o many of their guys just come alive when they start to get it rolling 鈥 each one of them becomes ignitable.
鈥淭hey start foaming at the mouth when the game starts to turn.鈥
The Warriors saw forward Shaun Livingston ejected in the second quarter after making contact with a game official while arguing a non-call.
But they roared ahead in the third quarter, opening the second half with a dunk from Kevin Durant en route to a 12-2 scoring run.
The Warriors outscored the Heat 37-17 in the third to take a 99-77 lead into the final frame.
Curry finished with 30 points as the Warriors improved to 3-0 on their current road trip. Durant added 24 and Klay Thompson scored 19.
The Warriors seemed fired up by the ejection of Livingston, who thought he was fouled on a shot attempt and leaned in to argue with the referee. He bumped heads with the official, who also seemed to move forward, and was instantly sent to the locker room.
Goran Dragic scored 20 points for the Heat.
In Los Angeles, James Harden scored 36 points and handed out 9 assists, and the Houston Rockets won their sixth consecutive road game with a 118-95 victory against the Los Angeles Lakers.
Houston has won all six road games in the streak by at least 15 points, setting a league record.
Elsewhere, it was: Thunder 90, Spurs 87; Timberwolves 112, Clippers 106; and Magic 105, Knicks 100.
