Dwyane Wade's 3-pointer with 54 seconds left put Miami ahead to stay and the
Heat went on to beat New Orleans 87-83 Friday night for a 3-2 lead in the
first-round playoff series.
The home team has won all five games, and the Heat have won 15 consecutive
games in Miami. They can close out the series with a victory Sunday in New
Orleans, but they're 13-30 on the road this season.
The Hornets, who fell to 0-5 in Miami this season, led by 11 points in the
first half, were up 58-49 midway through the third quarter and squandered a
33-point performance by Davis.
Eddie Jones scored 25 points and Wade had 21 for the Heat.
