NBA ROUNDUP Saturday's other game
Heat 99, Wizards 86
WASHINGTON -- Shaquille O'Neal had 27 points and 10 rebounds, Derek Anderson compensated for Dwyane Wade's foul trouble with five 3-pointers as Miami earned its 16th consecutive victory over its Southeast Division rivals. The Heat trailed by 12 in the first quarter, but from then on there was no stopping O'Neal and Anderson, who were a lethal inside-outside combination in place of the usual O'Neal-Wade. O'Neal went 13-for-16 from the field, and Anderson had 20 points, four assists and two steals in his best game since he was acquired in February. Gary Payton added 13 points, and Udonis Haslem had 13 points and 14 rebounds for the Heat. Wade scored 11 points in only 21 foul-plagued minutes, but he did enough to set a Miami franchise record with 76 consecutive games scoring in double digits.
