By Phil Watson
Miami Heat 98, CHARLOTTE BOBCATS 85
Game 3, Eastern Conference First Round
The Heat took a commanding 3-0 series lead behind 30 points and 10 rebounds from LeBron James.
Miami’s defense made a difference, as well. After Charlotte was 12-for-22 in the first quarter, the Bobcats hit just 15-of-43 shots the rest of the way.
Including the playoffs, Miami is 18-0 against Charlotte since James and Chris Bosh joined the Heat in 2010.
Dwyane Wade added 17 points for the Heat.
Al Jefferson led the Bobcats with 20 points and three blocked shots, but scored only five points after the first quarter. Chris Douglas-Roberts added 17 points.
Game 4 is Monday in Charlotte.
