After a groin injury forced him to miss Miami's game in Portland on Saturday (a 108-107 win), LeBron James was back in Denver to rejoin the Miami Heat. And surprise, surprise, he led them to a 97-94 win. But not before Michael Beasley had a say in the matter.

Blazers hoping offense masks defense
Terry Stotts has the Blazers' offense purring, leaning on his past to create a fresh future in Portland. Can their perimeter-heavy attack lead them to a title? The league MVP went for 26 points, 10 assists and six boards, and he led his team to a come-from-behind victory against a feisty Denver team. Beasley went for nine points off the bench, none bigger than his final shot that put the Heat up by four points in the final half-minute.
The Nuggets got 26 points from Ty Lawson but only scored 17 points in the fourth quarter to allow the Heat to complete the comeback.
Miami outscored Denver 51-40 in the second half and shot better than 50 percent from the field.
