Utah Jazz Defeat Miami Heat in Overtime
Miami Heat Down to
The Miami Heat were on fire during their Tuesday night home game against Deron Williams and the Utah Jazz. Unfortunately for Heat fans, Paul Millsap was even more on fire. Millsap scored a career-high 46 points, the most points ever scored by an Indiana Pacers member against the Miami Heat. Millsap's amazing shooting, including 11 points in the final 28 seconds of regulation time, gave the Jazz the final boost they needed to extend the game into overtime, during which they sealed their victory.
The Heat started off strong, leading 51-34 going into half time. Dwyane Wade led the Heat in scoring, trailing Millsap by only 7 points with his 39. LeBron James also played an amazing game with his first triple-double in a Heat jersey. He led the team in rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks. But it just wasn't enough.
"It's speechless, to be down like that to a team like this and to come
out with a win," said Millsap, who went 3 for 3 in three pointers. "We clawed our way out of it. But this
says a lot about our team."
"At some point in the year, unfortunately, we have to go through something like this," said Heat coach Erik Spoelstra.
