LOS ANGELES — Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade had 23 points apiece, and the Miami Heat beat the Los Angeles Lakers 101-95 on Wednesday for their sixth straight win.

Bosh also had 11 rebounds in the Heat’s fifth consecutive victory against the Lakers on Christmas Day. LeBron James added 19 points and Ray Allen had 12.

Miami shot 51 percent (41 for 80) from the field while improving to 7-0 against the Western Conference this season. It was its 19th straight win overall against West opponents.

Nick Young scored 20 points for the Lakers, who were tied four times in the fourth quarter. Los Angeles shot 42 percent (33 for 79) in its third straight loss.

Warriors 105, Clippers 103

OAKLAND, Calif. — Klay Thompson blocked a shot by Chris Paul with 1 second left then contested Jamal Crawford’s 3-pointer that fell short at the final buzzer, and Golden State held off Los Angeles in a game that featured a pair of ejections.

Paul’s lay-in with 11.9 seconds left went around the rim and out, but Andre Iguodala missed a pair of free throws with 9.3 seconds remaining. That gave the Clippers the ball back with 8.3 seconds to go.

Stephen Curry overcame a slow start to score seven of his 15 points over the final 3:01 to go with 11 assists as Golden State snapped the Pacific Division-leading Clippers’ season-best five-game winning streak.

Blake Griffin was ejected for his second technical with 10:43 remaining after scuffling with Andrew Bogut.

Thunder 123, Knicks 94

NEW YORK — Kevin Durant scored 29 points, Russell Westbrook had a triple-double by the middle of the third quarter, and Oklahoma rolled past New York, which played without Carmelo Anthony.

The Durant-Anthony showdown between the NBA’s top two scorers was canceled because of Anthony’s sprained left ankle, so the Thunder had the Christmas spotlight to themselves while winning for the 10th time in 11 games. The 29-point victory was the largest for a road team on Christmas.

Westbrook finished with 14 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists in his first triple-double of the season.

Rockets 111, Spurs 98

SAN ANTONIO — James Harden scored 28 points and Dwight Howard had 15 points and 20 rebounds, leading balanced Houston past San Antonio.

Each of Houston’s starters scored in double figures to help the Rockets improve to 2-0 against the Spurs this season. Chandler Parsons and Terrence Jones each scored 21 points, and Jeremy Lin had 13 points, eight assists and only one turnover.

Bulls 95, Nets 78

NEW YORK — Taj Gibson scored 20 points and Jimmy Butler added 15 to help Chicago.

Butler keyed a 21-5 run that gave Chicago control in the third quarter. Deron Williams scored 18 points for Brooklyn.
