The Miami Heat ( 20 - 13 ) stifled the Washington Wizards ( 15 - 17 ) en route to a 97 - 75 win on Sunday night . The key to Miami 's success this season has been their defense and it was dominant on Sunday . They held Washington to just 34 percent shooting from the field and 14 percent from long distance . The difference in the game was the second quarter , in which Miami scored 25 points while holding Washington to just seven points . The Heat also dominated the rebounding , as they won that battle 54 - 45 . These teams are going in opposite directions right now and this result is indicative of the two teams recent play . Miami has the second - best defense in the NBA and they did a heck of a job today if slowing down a potent Wizards attack . Hassan Whiteside was a beast once again down low , as he added to his league - leading block total with another six swats in this game . Chris Bosh was the star of the game though , as he scored 23 points and snatched down seven rebounds . Most people wondered how a veteran team like this would perform this season , but they are simply slowing games down and winning with stingy defense . That 's a recipe for a deep playoff run and the Heat have the players with the experience to guide them there . It 's good the veteran starters got to rest late in this game , as they play the second half of a back - to - back on Monday against the Indiana Pacers . This was a disappointing result for a team who has been a disappointment all season . After breaking out last year , they appear to be regressing in a much deeper Eastern Conference . Blowout losses like this at home are a bad sign for future endeavors and one has to wonder if their rub last year was a fluke . They have now lost three of their last four games with the offense really struggling . No player scored more than 14 points and the only notable line was a double - double from Marcin Gortat . It does n't get much easier for Washington , as they have to take on the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday in their next scheduled game .
