Heat 107, Suns 92
LeBron James poured in 35 points and Dwyane Wade added 21 points and 12 assists as host Miami knocked off Phoenix to win its seventh straight game.
James and Wade combined to hit 20-of-27 shots for the red-hot Heat, who have prevailed by double digits five times during the streak. James also extended his streak of double-digit scoring performances to 509 games - the fifth-longest run in NBA history.
Channing Frye had 16 points to pace the Suns, who earned a split of their Florida double dip after defeating Orlando 104-96 on Sunday. Goran Dragic added 14 points, nine assists and eight rebounds in defeat.
James ended a tightly-contested first half in style, pulling up and burying a 3-pointer with six-tenths of a second remaining to put Miami ahead 50-47 at the break. He poured it on in the third quarter, slamming home a one-handed dunk with 6:09 left and adding a three-point play a short time later as the Heat led 79-71 entering the fourth.
The reserves took over from there, as Michael Beasley opened the quarter with a short jumper and Ray Allen knocked down consecutive 3-pointers to extend the advantage to 14. Allen tacked on a line-drive 3 later in the period, and the Suns didn't threaten the rest of the way.
