Winderman’s view: Butler, Adebayo don’t measure up in loss to 76ers

MIAMI – Observations and other notes of interest from Thursday night’s 109-105 loss to  the Philadelphia 76ers: – Ahead of the game, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra spoke about how it already felt like the playoffs. – That it did. – What it didn’t feel like was enough from Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo. – While the 76ers got plenty from their leading men, the same could not be said for the Heat. – Essentially, Butler and Adebayo did not measure up to Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid. – So for all the contributions elsewhere for the Heat, it wasn’t enough. – Yes, Butler came on late. – But wasn’t strong...

After red card, Messi-less Inter Miami cough up lead, lose to Monterrey in CONCACAF quarterfinal

By ALANIS THAMES (AP Sports Writer) FORT LAUDERDALE — Jorge Rodríguez scored the go-ahead goal in the 89th minute as Mexico’s Monterrey rallied past Inter Miami for a 2-1 win Wednesday night in the CONCACAF Champions Cup quarterfinal. Inter Miami played the match without Lionel Messi, who was sidelined for a fourth straight game as he deals with a right hamstring injury. Messi has not played since March 13 and also missed Argentina’s exhibitions last month against El Salvador and Costa Rica. It isn’t yet clear when the 36-year-old Messi will return. The teams are scheduled to play the second...

Winderman’s view: In victory, Terry Rozier makes his case as Heat’s latest Boy Wonder

MIAMI — Observations and other notes of interest from Tuesday night’s 109-99 victory over the New York Knicks: – In a vacuum, Terry Rozier getting on a heater would appear totally apropos. – At the moment, it seems just that. – With Tyler Herro still out. – Which only adds to the drama of what happens when/if Herro returns from the foot tendinitis that has had him out for more than a month. – Because we have yet to get to the point of knowing whether side-by-side Rozier and Herro works. – Or, for that matter, whether either can maximize his game if cast, instead, in an either/or alignment. –...

Rozier’s 34 help power the Heat past the Knicks in 109-99 statement victory

MIAMI – A season searching for a statement victory found one Tuesday night, with the Miami Heat holding off a New York Knicks rally for a 109-99 decision at Kaseya Center. Uneven at home this season, and with a losing record against teams with winning records, the Heat rode the hot hand of guard Terry Rozier to their seventh victory in their last 10 games. “It was really good to see us respond to the competition,” coach Erik Spoelstra said, “and find a way to win at the end.” The victory kept the Heat even in the loss column with the Indiana Pacers for the sixth and final direct berth into the...

Panthers score three goals in third period, but rally comes up short vs. Maple Leafs in potential playoff preview

TORONTO — Auston Matthews scored his NHL-leading 61st and 62nd goals of the season to go along with an assist as the Toronto Maple Leafs built a four-goal lead before hanging on late to down the Florida Panthers 6-4 in a potential first-round playoff preview Monday. Nicholas Robertson and Matthew Knies also had a goal and an assist each for Toronto, while Tyler Bertuzzi and David Kampf provided the rest of the offense. Ilya Samsonov made 26 saves for the Leafs, who were without five regulars — including star winger Mitch Marner (high ankle sprain) for an 11th straight game. Vladimir Tarasenko...

Marlins blow early lead vs. Angels; remain winless on the season

MIAMI — Mike Trout hit two solo homers and the Los Angeles Angels rallied from an early four-run deficit and beat the Miami Marlins 7-4 on Monday. Trout’s second shot — a 473-foot blast in the sixth — landed in the walkway high above the wall in left-centerfield. It was the 26th multihomer game of Trout’s and the two blasts put him at 371 in his career, surpassing Gil Hodges for 81st on the all-time list. Trout’s bid for a third homer ended when Miami reliever Tanner Scott (0-2) walked him to load the bases in the eighth. Brandon Drury then reached on a fielder’s choice that scored Anthony Rendon...

Winderman’s view: After cruise control, non-deferential Butler needed next for Heat

WASHINGTON — Observations and other notes of interest from Sunday night’s 119-107 victory over the Washington Wizards: – If Jimmy Butler Week is about to follow, then everything else is a non-issue. – Including the passive start Sunday, before late and needed on-demand scoring. – And the lack of a breakout game in two weeks. – Perhaps it’s the lingering remnants of his illness. – Perhaps it’s allowing others to thrive, as Terry Rozier did Sunday. – Perhaps it’s merely waiting for this moment at hand. – With huge games now following against the Knicks, 76ers, Rockets and Pacers. – And that’s...
