Heat 101, 76ers 86: Chris Bosh finished with 25 points and a season-high five blocked shots as visiting Miami snapped a three-game slide.

LeBron James flirted with his first triple-double of the season, registering 21 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds. Shane Battier and Norris Cole chipped in 13 points apiece for the Heat, who forced 23 turnovers.

Tony Wroten scored 13 points and Evan Turner had 11 for Philadelphia, which lost for the fifth time in six games. Thaddeus Young and Michael Carter-Williams, each of whom entered averaging 17.6 points, combined for 17 points on 4-of-20 shooting.

Battier hit a 3-pointer just over a minute into the contest to give Miami a lead it would never lose. The bulge grew to 12 on another triple by Battier later in the first quarter and his third from beyond the arc in the first half made it 56-39 just before halftime.

Miami pushed its advantage to as many as 25 on a layup by Dwyane Wade late in the third before the 76ers made one final push with a 13-2 run that stretched well into the fourth. A 3-pointer by Mario Chalmers ended the surge and Philadelphia was unable to seriously threaten down the stretch, finishing 2-for-20 from long range.

Heat C Greg Oden, who played in his first game in over four years Wednesday in Washington, did not appear in this one. ... Wade was limited to eight points for the second straight game. ... Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim superstar Mike Trout, who grew up near Philadelphia, was in attendance.
