Brooklyn has won three straight and six of its last seven, including three in a row as the visitor. In the process, the Nets clawed back to .500 for the first time since Nov. 13. The Nets winning streak reached three with a 100-98 victory in Orlando over the Magic on Friday. Late in the third quarter, the Nets led by as many as 26, but they had to survive a furious fourth-quarter comeback. Orlando outscored Brooklyn 37-14 in the final period and cut its deficit down to one possession, but it could not hit a tying or go-ahead shot in the games final minute. Mason Plumlee led the Nets with 18 points and nine rebounds, and it was his reverse layup with 2:21 remaining that ended Orlandos 16-0 run to get back in the game. Better to learn in a win, but definitely a lot to learn from, said Plumlee. Too many turnovers, I had five myself. Cant turn the ball over ... if you take care of that, its not even a close game. Brooklyn also got 16 points each from Brook Lopez and Deron Williams off the bench. The two have been coming off the bench during Brooklyns great run. Joe Johnson added 14 points, including two clutch free throws in the closing seconds. The Nets return home for three straight, starting Monday versus the Dallas Mavericks.dddddddddddd.

Were not trying to figure things out, were just trying to win a game, said center Chris Bosh. Just go out and get the job done. Do better, however possible. Dwyane Wade and Bosh each netted 15 points to lead Miami. Hassan Whiteside added 14 off the bench and Luol Deng rounded out the double-figure scorers with 10. The Heat led by four after the first quarter, but the Rockets clobbered them in the second to the tune of 38-22. The third quarter was even worse for Miami as the Rockets won the period, 33-11. Houston led by 31 and benched most of its starters over the final 12 minutes. The Heat, who head west for five games, starting Thursday, allowed the Rockets to shoot 50 percent from the field and committed 21 turnovers, which Houston turned into 25 points. The Rockets hammered the Heat on the glass, 47-33. The Heat have won both of this seasons matchups, both of which took place in Brooklyn.
