NBA: Pistons inflict Lakers’ first loss 106-95

HUGE CUSHIONIn Indianapolis, Philadelphia overcame a 26-point deficit to beat the Pacers, while the Mavericks lost their fifth straight as they remained winless at home

AP , LOS ANGELES

Seemingly headed to their second straight lopsided victory, the Knicks’ huge cushion was down to seven at 102-95 before Crawford and Randolph bailed them out.

The Knicks are off to their best start since the lockout-delayed 1998-1999 season, while the Thunder have lost six straight.


HEAT 97, WIZARDS 77

In Miami, Dwyane Wade scored 24 points before taking the fourth quarter off as Miami coasted past Washington.

The Wizards were held without a field goal for nine minutes in the second half.

Miami needed 20 games to hit the five-win mark last season, but have reached it in nine in this campaign.
