Clippers-Heat Preview

Close games have been the norm recently for the Miami Heat, who find themselves battling to stay in playoff position.

No team has had to sweat out anything lately against the Los Angeles Clippers.

The Heat look to put a loss to a fellow Eastern Conference playoff hopeful behind them Wednesday night when they open a six-game homestand against the Clippers, who have dropped each of their last four games by at least 17 points.

Twenty-one of Miami's first 54 games were decided by 15 points or more, but it seems routinely being involved in blowouts has become a thing of the past for coach Erik Spoelstra's club.

The Heat (32-32) have seen seven of their last 10 games decided by six points or fewer. Miami won its first three games in March by an average of 4.3 points to pull into seventh place in the East - ahead of Charlotte and Chicago - but tripped up against one of its pursuers Tuesday.

The Heat led by nine points with under nine minutes to play at Charlotte but fell apart from there. The Bobcats closed the game on a 20-6 run in the final 8:57 to beat Miami 83-78 and pull into a tie for the East's No. 7 seed.

Dwyane Wade had 27 points for the Heat, but only four after the 8:51 mark of the third quarter.

"That's a tough one for us to handle, being in control most of the game,'' Spoelstra said. "We showed up ready for the fight and we did not close the game well at all, certainly not offensively.''

It was the first time in 21 games this season Miami lost when holding an opponent under 90 points.

The Clippers (25-39) continued a five-game road trip Tuesday in Orlando, and as if a 26-point halftime deficit wasn't enough, the team announced in the middle of the game it was relieving Mike Dunleavy of his general manager duties.

The move comes barely a month after Dunleavy stepped down as head coach after guiding the team to the playoffs once in six seasons. Assistant general manager Neil Olshey will take over in the front office.

"I thought Mike was going to focus on being the GM and that's what I thought was going to be the course of event. I'm a little bit shocked it occurred,'' interim coach Kim Hughes said.

The Magic went on to beat Los Angeles 113-87, meaning the Clippers have been outscored by an average of 22.8 points in losing four straight.

"It's just like another monkey wrench in a roller-coaster season for us,'' guard Baron Davis said of the day's events.

All-Star Chris Kaman had a tough night against Magic superstar Dwight Howard on Tuesday, finishing with 12 points and six rebounds while Howard had 22 points and 15 boards.

Kaman more than held his own earlier this season against the Heat, though, posting 22 points and 14 rebounds in a 94-84 win at Staples Center on Jan. 10.

Eric Gordon, who had 17 points in that win, has missed the first two games of the Clippers' five-game road trip with a sore left leg. He's listed as day-to-day.

Wade had 24 points versus Los Angeles in January but has averaged 29.1 points and 8.1 assists in his past eight games in the series.

He could use some help from Michael Beasley. The team's second-leading scorer with 15.4 points per game, Beasley has been held four points below his average in Miami's last eight games while shooting 39.1 percent. However, he's averaged 20.7 points in three career games against the Clippers.

The Heat are 11-6 this season when Beasley scores more than 20 points.

Heat open homestand by staving off Butler, Clippers

By Chris Perkins, for NBA.com

MIAMI (NBA.com exclusive) -- The Miami Heat are finally protecting their homecourt.

Wednesday's wire-to-wire 108-97 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers extended the Heat's home win streak to four games, its longest of the season.

Clippers forward Rasual Butler did his best to make a defiant stand, finishing with 31 points in an impressive display against the team that drafted him.

"Normally when I'm aggressive we win ballgames," Butler said.

But in the end he was powerless against a Miami team that held him scoreless in the final period and left him to end just two points from tying his career high, established just two months ago.

The Heat are now 18-14 at home, their first time this season being four games above .500 at the Triple-A, and their timing couldn't be much better.

Miami (33-32), which currently holds the eighth and final postseason berth in the East, is locked in a playoff battle with the other teams that comprise the rest of the Eastern Conference's middle class -- Milwaukee, Toronto, Chicago and Charlotte.

The Clippers game was the first of six consecutive home games for the Heat. It was also the sixth home game in a stretch during which Miami plays 11 of 13 games at AmericanAirlines Arena.

"We have to take care of this place if we want to hold on to our playoff spot," said Heat guard Dwyane Wade, who finished with 27 points and eight assists Wednesday, and is now averaging 31.8 points and 11.0 assists per game during the home win streak.

As for the Clippers, Wednesday's loss was just more of the same misery. Los Angeles (25-40) has now lost eight consecutive road games and 12 of its past 13.

It didn't help matters for the Clippers that guard Eric Gordon, their leading scorer, missed the game with a sore right leg, his third consecutive absence. Los Angeles is now 4-11 without Gordon.

Further complicating things was guard Baron Davis finishing with 10 points on 4-for-11 shooting. Davis is now 17-for-56 (.304) from the field in his last five games, including 4-for-19 (.211) on 3-pointers. And center Chris Kaman (16 points) got off to a slow start, missing his first five shots before hitting eight of his final 12.

Miami only had a couple of rough spots Wednesday. The Clippers got their deficit to 75-70 on a Butler 3-pointer, but the Heat closed the third quarter on a 15-2 run to take a 90-72 lead into the fourth quarter that practically ended the competitive stage of the game.

The Clippers posed a mini-threat late as they got within 106-97 with 1:16 left, but the Heat were able to slam the door on the comeback hopes. Butler didn't attempt a field goal in the fourth quarter as the Heat smothered him in a way they didn't through the first three quarters.

"We stopped leaving him [open] in the corner," Wade said. "Rasual knows our defense. He played here for three years. His eyes light up when he plays us because he knows he's going to get a chance to get off."

The Heat have scored 100 or more points in three of their last four games, the lone exception being Tuesday's 83-78 loss at Charlotte. With the Clippers game in its rearview mirror, Miami turns it attention toward Friday's showdown against Chicago.

"It's an important time for us," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "We know we need to win every game at this time of year, especially on our home floor."

Notes: Heat forward Michael Beasley (15 points) sustained a bruised left thigh in the fourth quarter. He'll be evaluated Thursday...Miami had a 19-point advantage on free throws. The Heat were 29-for-35 from the line while the Clippers were 10-for-13.
