TORONTO -- DeMar DeRozan is showing no signs of slowing down.The Toronto Raptors star has surged to the top of the NBA scoring charts, averaging 35.8 points after dropping 34 on the Miami Heat in a 96-87 victory Friday night.It was his fifth straight game with at least 30 points for DeRozan, passing Mike James for the longest such streak in franchise history and the best such start to a season since Michael Jordan did it for six straight games to open the 1986-87 season.DeRozan was not about to dwell on his place alongside such distinguished company.Yeah, I heard, he said. I dont believe it.What he could believe was the four turnovers he had in the first quarter, part of the six the team committed as it fell behind by 12 points at one point.DeRozan admitted he was passing too much at that point, something that he quickly adjusted in helping his team rally back from a double-digit deficit for the second straight game.A couple shots I passed up, he said. . (Coach Dwane Casey) just said to me to go out and shoot it.Torontos win was helped greatly by the play of its reserves, which combined for a season-high 36 points as the Raptors beat the Heat for the fourth straight time in the regular season.This was the first meeting between the teams since Toronto beat Miami in the Eastern Conference semifinals last season.Terrence Ross had 20 points off the bench, and his play epitomized Torontos comeback.We always go 15 deep and we really have a full team, said Kyle Lowry, who had 13 points. One day its one guys time and the next day it might be another guys.The Heat looked to be back in the game after reducing a 16-point deficit to just three over the last 4 minutes of the third quarter. But Toronto opened the final quarter with a 7-0 run and Miami never got closer than five points the rest of the way.That third quarter was good for us but in the fourth we were not focused enough, we made too many mistakes offensively and defensively and they took advantage of that, said Goren Dragic, who had 17 points. Center Hassan Whiteside led the Heat with 21 points and 16 rebounds.The Raptors held the Heat to 38.6 percent shooting from the field in the game, the fourth game out of five that Toronto has held its opponent below 42 percent.Miami was unable to say the same, particularly about DeRozan, who went 14 of 26 from the field.We tried to give him different looks, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. We really wanted to try and take it out of his hands a couple of times but we werent able to do it. Hes a heck of a player.TIP-INSHeat: G Wayne Ellington (quadriceps) missed his fifth straight game to open the season. ...
