"It was a wild game," said Miami coach Pat Riley, who is coaching a sub-.500 team for the first time in 20 years. "It came down to big shot after big shot after big shot. Eddie Jones hit the biggest shot."

Houston won a jump ball on its offensive end with six seconds left, but Moochie Norris' off-balance 3-pointer missed failed to even hit the backboard.

"It was a jump ball, so it is hard to get something off that," Houston guard Steve Francis said. "We wanted to go with what we had. Moochie got the ball, but unfortunately we were not able to get the result that we wanted."

The Heat trailed by as many as seven points in the fourth quarter before taking a 96-90 lead with a 13-0 burst with three minutes left.

Francis scored 35 points and Cuttino Mobley dropped in 30 for the Rockets, who suffered their fourth straight loss.

"We were not exploiting their defense," said Rockets coach Rudy Tomjanovich. "We talked about it, but it just didn't click until the second half. We just had to get it out of the double team. They double team every pick-and-roll."

Miami trailed, 100-98, until House's jumper with eight seconds left sent the game into overtime.

House finished with 20 points for the Heat, who shot 53 percent (47-of-89) from the floor, including a 7-of-13 showing from 3-point range.

"We found a way to get a win, we didn't quit even when they made a run, we stayed with it," House said.

Kenny Thomas scored 26 points and Dan Langhi added 11 for Houston, which fell to 4-7 in overtime this season.
