LeBron James is trying to remain upbeat despite Miami's five-game losing streak.

“We’re just at a point in the season where we’ve hit a dry spot. How do we explain it? We can’t. Me and D-Wade will try to keep our teammates upbeat. This is not rock bottom for us. We could lose every game and still probably make the playoffs.”

Dwyane Wade and LeBron James received very little support outside of Mario Chalmers, who had 10 points.

Chris Bosh was outplayed by LaMarcus Aldridge, who had 26 points compared to just seven from Miami's power forward.
