2nd Round Draft Pick Mario Chalmers Shows His Skill
Despite the Miami Heat losing their first meeting with the Los Angeles Clippers, they turned the tide around and literally crushed L.A. by beating them by more than 20 points on this go around. The two young rookies Mario Chalmers and Michael Beasley really showcased their talents by playing great defense and even better offense. The final score ended at 119-95.
The leading scorer for the Heat was of course Dwyane Wade with 32 points on 10 for 17 shooting. The young stud Mario Chalmers, who was a 2nd round draft pick, 34th overall, put up 15 points, 8 assists and 4 steals. Michael Beasley the 2nd overall pick, looked silky smooth with 18 points on 7 for 12 shooting. The young Miami team has put together some great starting pieces to becoming a dominant Eastern Conference team. All they need is a premier big man and they will be a tough team to beat.
