Rest didn't lead to rust for the defending NBA champion Miami Heat in Tuesday's opening game of their Eastern Conference semifinal against the Brooklyn Nets.
LeBron James scored 22 points, Ray Allen added 19 and the Heat stayed perfect in this postseason by beating the Nets 107-86. It was the first win for Miami in five meetings with Brooklyn this season.
"It's only one," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "But I liked the energy, the activity."
