NBA ROUNDUP Tempers flare in Heat win over Suns Comment By The Associated Press MailTribune.com By The Associated Press Posted Mar. 3, 2015 at 2:00 AM By The Associated Press Posted Mar. 3, 2015 at 2:00 AM » Social News MIAMI — Tyler Johnson scored a career-high 26 points, Goran Dragic added 21 against his former team and the Miami Heat beat the Phoenix Suns 115-98 on Monday night in a game that included two third-quarter altercations. Hassan Whiteside finished with 17 points and 10 rebounds before getting ejected for Miami, which got 16 points and nine assists from Dwyane Wade. P.J. Tucker had 20 points and 14 rebounds for the Suns, who also got 20 points from Eric Bledsoe. Markieff Morris and Brandon Knight scored 13 apiece. The story line was supposed to be Dragic facing the club that traded him to Miami last month, amid hurt feelings on both sides. Emotions boiled over instead. In all, there were five player technicals, three ejections and two flagrant fouls assessed in the third quarter alone, the 12 minutes of play needing 42 minutes to complete. Morris was ejected for a flagrant-2 foul against Dragic in the third quarter, and Whiteside and Alex Len were both tossed later in the period after getting tangled up under the Miami basket. NETS 110, WARRIORS 108: At New York, Jarrett Jack made a tiebreaking jumper with 1.1 seconds left and Brooklyn overcame Stephen Curry's stirring fourth-quarter comeback attempt to beat Golden State. Curry brought the Warriors back from 10 points down with under 4 minutes left to tie it, but couldn't get a final shot off after Jack's jumper. Curry finished with 26 points, 18 in the final period. Jack, however, calmly ran the clock down and shot over him as the Nets won their first game at home since Feb. 6. Brook Lopez had 26 points and Deron Williams 22 for the Nets. Andrew Bogut scored 16 for Golden State, but Klay Thompson shot 3 for 17. He was 1 of 9 on 3-pointers and finished with seven points. CLIPPERS 110, TIMBERWOLVES 105: At Minneapolis, Chris Paul had 26 points and 14 assists, and Los Angeles allowed only one field goal in the fourth quarter to outlast Minnesota. J.J. Redick scored 18 points before getting ejected in the fourth and DeAndre Jordan had 12 points and 18 rebounds, his ninth straight game with at least 15 boards. Glen Davis scored 12 points off the bench to help the Clippers get their seventh win in nine games. Ricky Rubio had 18 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists for the Timberwolves. RAPTORS 114, 76ERS 103: At Philadelphia, DeMar DeRozan scored a season-high 35 points, Lou Williams had 21 and Toronto snapped a five-game losing streak with a win over Philadelphia. Raptors coach Dwane Casey gave slumping All-Star and Philadelphia native Kyle Lowry another night off to rest. Even without their leading scorer in the lineup for the second straight game, the Raptors won for the first time since Feb. 20. MAVERICKS 102, PELICANS 93:  At Dallas, Richard Jefferson tied his season high with 16 points, seven during a 16-0 Dallas run early in the third quarter, and the Mavericks raced past New Orleans. The 34-year-old Jefferson made his fifth consecutive start in place of small forward Chandler Parsons, sidelined with a sprained left ankle, and hit five of six field goal attempts. The Mavericks were led by Monta Ellis with 20 points. Rajon Rondo added 19 points, 15 in the first half.
