The Miami Heat defeated the Houston Rockets , 109 - 103 , at American Airlines Arena on Tuesday . This appeared like an easy Houston win on paper , but Miami had other ideas with this impressive performance . A 20 - 3 run in the fourth quarter was the decisive stretch for the Heat , as that gave Miami their largest lead of the game . It was tight throughout though , as there were 15 ties and 19 lead changes , with no team leading by more than seven points until that huge run at the end . Shooting was the key difference , with Miami hitting 47 percent of their shots , while Houston were held to just 40 percent . The Heat also did work in the paint , winning that battle , 64 - 50 . The Rockets ( 32 - 12 ) are in a bit of a rut right now , as this marks their third loss in their last four games . James Harden picked up yet another triple - double though , accumulating 40 points , 12 rebounds and 10 assists . Patrick Beverley was second among starters , totaling 12 points , seven rebounds , three assists and two steals . Trevor Ariza amassed 11 points and eight rebounds . Eric Gordon really hurt the Rockets off the bench , providing just seven points , one rebound and one assist on 3 - of - 17 shooting . The Heat ( 12 - 30 ) have been unlucky in terms of results this season and a win over the Rockets shows just how good they can be . Goran Dragic led the team in scoring , accruing 21 points , eight rebounds and eight assists . Hassan Whiteside recorded another double - double , dropping 14 points and 15 rebounds . Dion Waiters was the only other starter in double figures , collecting 17 points , five rebounds and three assists . James Johnson was huge off the bench , providing 15 points , eight rebounds , six assists and three steals . Tyler Johnson and Wayne Ellington were also great off the bench , combining for 34 points and six rebounds . The Rockets were expected to win this game easily , but the Heat showed some serious fight in a big upset win .
