NBA schedule: Heat cruise past Hawks at home

Washington called timeout with 5:50 remaining until halftime, down 53-37. And over the next 29 minutes and change, the Wizards outscored the Timberwolves 67-47 to come from behind and steal their third win of the season.

Love notched 25 points and 11 rebounds, but Pek pitched in just two points after halftime in the loss.

Following the 92-86 loss to the Pistons, Anthony vented some of his frustrations, via Peter Botte of the New York Daily News:

Not only was Anthony frustrated with his team’s own play against the Pistons, but he also took issue with the officiating. The forward was in foul trouble all night, jawed with officials throughout and was finally hit with a technical foul in the third quarter after complaining about a non-call:

Perhaps it was an attempt to psyche out rookie guard Peyton Siva. Rookies are easily confused, after all.

“Why is he turning his back on me? I have the ball,” Siva likely thought to himself. “Do I throw it out of bounds? What is he looking at up there? I’ll just go ahead and drive because I don’t know.”

The Hawks committed 24 turnovers and allowed Miami to shoot 50.6 percent from the field. Atlanta jumped out to an early one-point lead after the first quarter but committed 14 turnovers in the second and third quarters combined to fall behind for good.

Miami won the battle of the paint with 48 points to the Hawks’ 38.
