Kidd had 14 points on 5-for-5 shooting and nine rebounds by halftime, and Johnson missed one shot and scored 13 to guide the Hurricanes to a 49-33 advantage. Kidd grabbed an offensive rebound and fed Johnson for a 3-pointer, giving Miami a 12-10 lead with 13:43 remaining. The Hurricanes never trailed again.
Cleveland scored in the paint to push Miami's lead above 20 at 58-37 with 17 minutes remaining. Kidd's layup off a turnover gave the Hurricanes their largest lead at 87-62 with 5:19 to go.
