Heat Dismantle Pistons

    The Miami Heat played their first home game since they returned from their one week trip to China. They had no problem with a 105-78 victory over the Detroit Pistons at American Airlines Arena on Thursday night.
    The Big Three had a very productive effort with fine contributions. Dwyane Wade was the leading scorer with 21 points and five assists in 23 minutes. Chris Bosh added 17 points and six rebounds in 22 minutes while LeBron James had 13 points, eight assists and four steals in 27 minutes of play.
    Former Pine Crest graduate Brevin Knight returned home as he played 23 minutes, scored 12 points and pounced on five rebounds for the Pistons. Greg Monroe led Detroit with 15 points.
    It was a total blowout from the start as Miami led Detroit 27-11 after one quarter. The Heat put up  just as many points in the second quarter as the Pistons did in the first half. Miami outscored their opponent 34-23 in the second and had a 61-34 halftime lead, a margin of 27 points.
