WASHINGTON -- For the new-look Miami Heat, a high-scoring victory over the Washington Wizards proved winning is possible on a bad defensive night.Goran Dragic scored 22 points, Hassan Whiteside added 18 and 18 rebounds and the Heat beat the Wizards 114-111 despite some rough moments on the defensive end.James Johnson had 17 points off the bench for Miami, which both scored and allowed its most points all season to register its first back-to-back wins.Its a huge game for us, said Dragic, whose team entered Saturday ranked third in the league in average points allowed. Were not a team that runs a whole lot. ... But we just need to grind. And we did that tonight.Miami got its first road victory since its season opener despite 34 points each from Washingtons John Wall and Bradley Beal, both good for season highs.Dion Waiters scored 16 points for Miami, and Josh Richardson hit four 3-pointers among his 15 points as Miami went 13 for 27 (48.1 percent) from beyond the arc. In all, six Heat players scored in double figures.We try to get to the paint and attack, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. But teams have been really loading up on that, and so were trying to develop some more trust, some more ball movement to make teams pay for that.Miami shot 57.7 percent from the floor, almost 16 full points above its season average entering Saturday.They had some guys that usually dont make shots that made shots because they were basically workout shots -- there was nobody there to contest them, Wall said. I think we came out with intensity. I just think our one-on-one defense was terrible.Behind Wall and Beal, center Marcin Gortat scored 10 points and grabbed 16 rebounds. But no other Wizards hit double figures on a night Washington lost starting forward Markieff Morris to a sprained right ankle in the second quarter.After Dragics jumper gave Miami a 60-59 lead to end the first half, the Heat opened the third quarter on a 10-4 run, stretching their lead to 70-63 on Whitesides bank shot.Later in the third, Miami built its lead to 13 after a 12-4 stretch. Dragic drove inside for the last four points, his latter layup making it 89-76 with 2:41 left in the quarter.Man, the first half, nobody played defense, Dragic said. But we figured it out. The third quarter was good for us.Washington trailed by as many as 17 in the fourth, before closing the game on a 10-1 run. That was a little deceiving, with Walls second 3-pointer in that stretch coming with 0.9 seconds left.TIP-INSHeat: Improved to 3-0 when scoring 100 or more points ...

What happened last night that you need to know about? Joe McDonald gives us his take on the biggest and best performances. This is where we say, Morning, Joe.Matthews brings it large: Amazing. Simply amazing. Few could have predicted Auston Matthews would have that kind of impact in his NHL debut Wednesday night. The best part of his four-goal night was he did it with ease. Im not saying his accomplishments were easy, but it was the so-called little things that made his performance look effortless. His positioning was perfect. He was strong on the puck. He played as though he were a veteran and not a 19-year-old kid. (Ask?Erik Karlsson, whose pocket he picked for his second goal.) Sure, hes the first NHL player to score four goals in his debut, but the best part was seeing his mother in the stands with tears in her eyes. Thats a big journey for a kid who grew up playing hockey in Arizona and chose to go to Switzerland to develop, rather than the traditional junior or college route. Despite a 5-4 overtime loss to the Ottawa Senators, Matthews debut with the Toronto Maple Leafs was incredible. In our preseason picks, I said the Winnipeg Jets Patrik Laine would win the Calder Trophy as the rookie of the year. Any chance I can take that back? During the World Cup of Hockey, Matthews proved his worth for Team North America, but no one could have expected this. Its going to be great to watch him help the Maple Leafs become a contender once again.Dont forget about McDavid: As the final buzzer sounded after the Senators won in OT, it was time to change the channel to watch the Edmonton Oilers and the Calgary Flames. I was thinking it would be funny if?Connor McDavid?scored three goals as a response to Matthews night. Well, the newest 19-year-old captain came up a bit short, scoring twice and adding an assist to lead the Oilers to a 7-4 win over the Flames in the first game at Rogers Place.dddddddddddd Like Matthews, McDavid was a stud for Team North America during the World Cup, and he proved once again in the Oilers season opener why he should be considered one of the best players in the world. He missed a good portion of the 2015-16 season with a broken collarbone, so the hockey world didnt get a true glimpse of his talents at the NHL level. Unfortunately, fellow 2015 top pick?Jack Eichel (No. 2 overall) of the?Buffalo Sabres?suffered an ankle injury during practice Wednesday and will be sidelined indefinitely, so once again we wont see McDavid-Eichel go head-to-head to start the season. Honestly, its not even a debate anymore as to whos the most dominant.And thats not all: Speaking of young players, Matthews and McDavid set the stage for fellow budding superstars to make their debuts on Thursday. The most anticipated is by Laine. The Finnish player, who was selected second overall in June behind Matthews, will make his debut Thursday night against the Carolina Hurricanes. I expect he will make a strong push for that this season. Im not saying hell score four goals like Matthews did, but Laine is a confident kid who will make his presence felt with authority. No doubt he will use Matthews debut as motivation. make his NHL debut against the New York Islanders Thursday at Madison Square Garden. He was the biggest c
