Season series: Heat, 1-0

GameTime: 3:30 ET

The Lakers own a 29-18 lifetime advantage over the Heat in head-to-head matchups. Of course, last week Dwyane Wade accidentally fractured Kobe Bryant’s septum in the All-Star game, but any hard feelings are apparently much ado about nothing.

Common Thread:

Lakers forward Jason Kapono played in 118 games for the Heat over two seasons, averaging eight points, two assists and one rebound in 21 minutes per game.

Team Milestones:

17 field goals will move LeBron James past P.J. Brown into 13th all-time with 1,130. Eight steals will move him past Jason Williams into 20th, with 195.

Dwyane Wade will reach the 4,000 free throws made plateau with four free throws this afternoon.

Chris Bosh needs 12 free throws to pass Jamal Mashburn into 17th with 534.

With his next three pointer, James Jones will pass James Posey into 13th all-time with 215.
