ATLANTA - Comedian Chris Tucker sat courtside at
Philips Arena for Wednesday's game between the Heat and

got punked. This was Manny Pacquiao versus Miguel Cotto.
This was Jay Z versus Soulja Boy. This was WalMart versus K-Mart. It was no contest. When you've ...

First off, full disclosure: I like Allen Iverson.
Always have. I respect the impact he's
had on the game from a pure basketball standpoint as well as a cultural/style standpoint. From the moment he crossed up Michael Jordan ...

LeBron Fantasy vs. CP3 Reality
In the end, there was disappointment. At the finish, the message was simple.
One-hundred and four points should have been more than enough for the Heat, considering it carried one of the league's stingiest defenses into Thursday's clash with Cleveland. But for the first time this ...

Pregame at the AmericanAirlines Arena: In the visitors' locker room, Cleveland guard and former Miami-target during 2008 free agency Mo Williams said he does not regret his decision to sign with the Cavaliers instead of other suitors --including the Heat -- in the summer of 2008. The Heat ...

This was second-half dominance.
This was the Miami Heat at its best. When Dwyane Wade is scoring, when the Heat's defense has an opponent scrambling, when Mario Chalmers is hitting clutch threes he way he did in college and when Miami's toughness is questioned, it usually turns out like ...

This time, stingy defense trumped prolific offense. This time, the Heat dominated with defense on a night when D. Wade struggled to get his scoring in gear.
