The Heat entered Tuesday night with a 12-3 record while the Wizards had just one win on the young season, but that is why they play the games.
The Wizards shocked the defending champs, 105-101, on Tuesday night at Verizon Center to win their third straight game over the Heat.
The Wizards shot a blistering 58% in the first half to score a season-high 60 points and led by six at the halftime break. They built that lead into double figures in the second half, but the Heat made their fourth quarter charge and gave the Wizards a true test down the stretch. However, this time the Wizards answered every run the Heat made and were able to keep their composure down the stretch to pull out the victory. LeBron James missed a three-pointer with less than 6 seconds left which would have tied the game at 104 and then Nene shut the door hitting one of two free throws and sealing the 105-101 win.
Jordan Crawford led the team with 22 points & 6 assists, Kevin Seraphin had another double-double with 16 points & 10 boards, while the team had a season-high 31 assists on 38 made field goals.
A.J. Price added 14 points, Martell Webster went for 13, and Bradley Beal ended with 10.
For the Heat, James had a triple-double with 26 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists, Bosh had 20 points and 12 boards and Wade had 24 points.
Next, the Wizards head to Atlanta to take on the Hawks on Friday night.
