MIAMI -- Last week, drama for the Miami Heat was defined as having one shot to beat the Charlotte Bobcats. On Sunday night, it was defined as whether the Heat would enjoy the biggest win in franchise history. Chris Bosh scored 20 of his 24 points in the first half, and the Heat improved to 5-0 for the first time by rolling past the Bobcats 129-90. The 129 points is the most scored by any NBA team so far this season and the 39-point victory margin matched the third-largest in Heat history, four shy of the team mark. "I think were where we should be," Dwyane Wade said. "I think were only going to get better." Wade scored 22 points and LeBron James, Mario Chalmers and Norris Cole all scored 16 for the Heat, who ran out to an 18-point lead after one quarter and held a 46-point lead at one point in the fourth. DJ White scored 21 points and Kemba Walker finished with 17 for Charlotte, which lost its seventh straight regular-season meeting against Miami. "Tonight was a night," Bobcats guard Corey Maggette said, "where we just did not get it done." The Heat needed a game-winner from Wade with 2.9 seconds left to win at Charlotte on Wednesday night. No such heroics were necessary this time. In fact, it took a falling-down three-pointer from Walker -- while getting fouled -- with 3:26 left to get Charlotte back within 40 points. "Just one of those games where nothing went right," Charlotte coach Paul Silas said. White made all eight of his shots in the first half for the Bobcats. The rest of Charlottes starters in the first 24 minutes shot a staggering 3 for 22, including an 0 for 7 from D.J. Augustin and 0 for 6 from Maggette. So in control was Miami that James -- who got engaged to longtime girlfriend Savannah Brinson as his New Years highlight -- wasnt even an offensive factor in the first half. His first field goal of the game came on a layup with 48 seconds remaining before intermission, and by then the Heat lead was 63-37. "We came into the game tonight trying to play with a heightened sense of athleticism," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "I was encouraged by our ability to concentrate, even as we got the lead." Chalmers made all four of his shots from three-point range, Cole scored his 16 points in 20 minutes, and Miami held huge edges in fast-break points (30-11) and points in the paint (58-38). "We wanted a complete effort," Bosh said. "I think we got it." Bosh controlled the play early, scoring nine of Miamis first 15 points, the last of those being an alley-oop dunk off a feed from Chalmers for an 11-point Heat lead. And with that, it was a total turnaround from the game in Charlotte last week, where Miami quickly got into an 11-0 hole and needed to scratch and claw all the way to the finish. On Sunday, Spoelstra had the luxury of giving his starters plenty of time off in the fourth quarter, with the added bonus there being a few extra minutes to rest up for a visit from Atlanta (3-1) on Monday night. Every Miami starter spent at least 18 minutes on the bench. "Guys had fresh legs and guys were very responsible last night with the new year coming in," James said. Before the game, Silas said he thought Walker was "a little tired" as the rookie got used to the NBA grind. Walker might not have been alone with that issue. Besides White, no other Charlotte starter reached double figures in scoring. Maggette is now 1-for-16 shooting in two games against Miami this season. Augustin finished 1 for 11, the worst shooting night of his career when trying at least 10 shots. Combined, Charlottes starters grabbed 14 rebounds, which was four more than what Bosh collected by himself. "Were all going to take the load off every night for each other. Thats what great teams do," Bosh said. "It was just a good night." NOTES: It was Miamis second wire-to-wire win of the year, the first being the season-opening victory on Christmas at Dallas. ...

The team said in a statement the operation was "successful" but gave no timetable for his return. Rose tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee late during a playoff-opening win over Philadelphia on April 28. He came to a jump stop in the lane and his leg bucked, with the 76ers Spencer Hawes and Lavoy Allen rotating toward him. He still went up again and passed to Carlos Boozer in midair before crashing to the court, sending a chill through the arena. Without its leading scorer, Chicago lost the series in six games. That certainly wasnt what the Bulls envisioned after capturing home-court advantage throughout the playoffs for the second straight season despite a long list of injuries. They were eyeing another big run after losing to Miami in the Eastern Conference finals last season but bowed out early, becoming the ssecond No.dddddddddddd 1 seed in as many years to fall in the first round. Rose averaged 21.8 points and 7.9 assists, but it was a difficult season. The MVP a year ago, he missed 27 games because of groin, back, toe, foot and ankle problems that general manager Gar Forman has said did not lead to the ACL tear. Although the Bulls went 18-9 without him during the regular season, they werent the same once he went down in the playoffs. As if Roses injury wasnt bad enough, the Bulls lost centre Joakim Noah to a sprained left ankle in Game 3 and fell into a 3-1 hole before injecting some drama back into the series. They looked as if they were about to force a seventh game with a one-point lead in the closing seconds Thursday, but that changed when C.J. Watson passed to Omer Asik on a break rather than keep the ball. Asik missed two foul shots before Andre Iguodala drove the length of the court as the defence parted and made both free throws after getting fouled by Asik to give Philadelphia a 79-78 victory.
