Raptors overcome Wade's 40-point night win in over Heat
Basketball Betting Lines
11/19/2008 -
Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Andrea Bargnani scored a season-high 25 points,
leading the Toronto Raptors over the Miami Heat, 101-95, in a tough road test
at American Airlines Arena.
Chris Bosh and Jermaine O'Neal both posted double-doubles, with Bosh recording
15 points and 11 rebounds while O'Neal had 16 points and 17 rebounds. Anthony
Parker was a perfect 5-for-5 from beyond the arc for 19 points for the
Raptors, who have won two of three.
"Every time they took the lead, we came right back and got the timely stops,"
said Raptors head coach Sam Mitchell. "(Bargnani) and (O'Neal) were just huge
for us, and then (Parker) in the second half. We just kept telling (Parker) to
shoot the basketball. The guys off the bench gave us some big points."
The Raptors shot 9-of-13 from three-point range in the game, including an
8-for-8 mark to finish the game.
"(Parker's) down there working his butt off against Wade," Bosh said. "He had
a lot of confidence, especially late in the game. When he doesn't hesitate, he
is a great shooter."
Dwyane Wade had a game-high 40 points and 11 assists for the Heat, who have
lost three of five. Shawn Marion added a season-high 20 points and 14
rebounds, while Daequan Cook had 10 points in the loss.
"We are going to build on (the game)," Wade said. "Tonight we played a team
that played well throughout the whole game and hit big shots. We kept fighting
and had a chance. At the end of the day, the best team won tonight."
Down 10 headed into the final quarter, Miami started on a 17-6 burst to seize
an 84-83 lead with just under nine minutes remaining. Marion and Chris Quinn
combined to score 10 during the run.
But Parker hit Toronto's seventh consecutive three-point attempt to take back
an 86-84 advantage. Parker hit a fadeaway shot to go up four, but Wade's
three-pointer with four minutes to play pulled Miami within 92-89.
Jose Calderon, who missed the last two games with a strained right hamstring,
made a crucial steal with just over a minute to go and put the Raptors up by
five with a driving layup past Quinn and Marion with 1:09 left.
Wade made a jumper with 41 seconds left to pull Miami within four, but Cook's
three-point attempt on the next possession was off, and Parker put the
finishing touches on the game with a couple free throws with under 10 seconds
left to put Toronto up 101-95.
"Well we didn't like the result, but I think people probably got their money's
worth on that game," said Miami head coach Erik Spoelstra. "Going down the
stretch, it got as electric as it could get."
Toronto jumped out to a 17-6 lead in the first six minutes, thanks to 10 early
points from Bargnani. But Wade led the Heat back into it with nine points in
the first, and Miami was only down two after the opening period.
The Raptors were able to increase their lead to nine in the beginning of the
second, maintaining that advantage for most of the quarter. But Wade hit a
jumper and a free throw in the last 20 seconds, and the Heat trailed only by
four at the break.
Miami tied the game at 47 early in the third, but Toronto answered with an 8-0
run to regain the lead. The Raptors would increase their lead to as much as
17 thanks to the team's 6-for-6 shooting from three in the quarter and led
77-67 headed into the fourth.
