The Wizards and Heat, two teams that played just a couple days before, traveled to South Beach to do it all over again.
Perhaps embarrassed with their last outing, the Heat came out with something to prove in this game. Dwyane Wade and Rasual Butler came out of the tunnel shooting the lights out, complimented perfectly by Shaq's rebounding. Miami jumped out to a first half lead of 7 points, and the Wizards looked to be in trouble.
In the second half, however, Washington stormed back. Gilbert Arenas lead the way for the Wizards, taking Wade off the dribble and scoring on numerous occassions. Jamison and Brown chipped in, too, making a quick comeback. Washington, at one time, had a 9 point lead, but that was quickly erased by the Heat. At the end of the game, the Wizards held on, beating the Heat for the second time in a row, 92-87.
