BOSTON -- Rajon Rondo hit two running baseline shots in the last two minutes and the Boston Celtics capitalized on the absence of LeBron James to beat the Miami Heat 101-96 Wednesday night. One night after scoring 43 points in a 100-96 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, James sat out the game with back spasms and the Heat lost for the first time in their three games without him this season. Rondo finished with nine points, 15 assists and 10 rebounds as Boston stopped a five-game losing streak. Avery Bradley led Boston with 23 points and had career highs of six 3-point baskets and nine 3-point attempts. Brandon Bass added 18 points. The Heat, which had won their previous two games after losing five of six, were led by Wade with 17 points, Chris Andersen with 16 and Ray Allen and Udonis Haslem with 14 each. With the score tied, Jeff Green hit a 3-pointer that put the Celtics ahead 97-94 with 2:32 remaining. Then Rondo, who had missed four of his six shots, banked the ball in from the right with 1:44 to go. Wade converted an offensive rebound, cutting the lead to 99-96 with 1:32 left. Each team missed a shot before Rondo connected again on a short shot with 18.7 seconds to play. It capped an impressive comeback after one of the NBAs best teams had built a 14-point lead early in the second quarter. Boston outscored Miami 48-37 in the second half. Bradley started the scoring with a 21-foot jumper, giving the Celtics their only lead of the first half. A dunk by Haslem tied the game 2-2 and the Heat led 34-22 after the first quarter. Michael Beasley, making his second start of the season, began the second quarter with a running hook that gave Miami its biggest lead of the half. But Boston rallied to cut it to 59-53 at intermission. Haslem, whose season-high was seven points, had 14 at halftime but didnt score again. And Miami outscored Boston 32-8 in the paint and 11-0 on fast breaks in the half. The Celtics took control to start the second half, going on a 12-2 run to lead 63-61 with 9:50 left in the third quarter. Bradley had six of their points. Then the Heat scored the next six points and took a 69-67 lead with 7:23 to go in the period. The lead changed hands five times after that in the quarter, which ended with Boston leading 80-78.

I love this competition and this team, the Wimbledon champion said.Despite the presence of family and friends, and huge expectations and support from fellow Czechs, Kvitova said: Its a lot of pressure on me in the Fed Cup, but its more pressure from myself when we are playing at home. Everybody is expecting that I make it two points, and thats what I will try to do.Kvitova said she was fatigued after the WTA Finals in Singapore, where she failed to advance from the group stage nearly two weeks ago. A little rest, and the comforts of home, have reinvigorated her to put an exclamation point on a stellar seaason including her second grand slam title, two other titles, and more than $5 million in prize money.ddddddddddddRanked No. 3, Kvitova is favoured to edge Germanys Angelique Kerber (10th) and Andrea Petkovic (14th), and hope either rising star Karolina Pliskova, in her Fed Cup debut, or Lucie Safarova, who clinched the 2012 final victory, or doubles player Lucie Hradecka can come through.Prague and the indoor court dont faze the Germans, who won both of their previous ties in Slovakia and Australia to reach their first final since 1992.Petkovic comes into the final having won the Tournament of Champions in Bulgaria on Sunday for her third WTA title of the year.I feel much more confident, Petkovic said.Kerber, the German No. 1, has won five straight singles in Fed Cup, and has beaten Kvitova twice on tour. Sabine Lisicki and Julia Goerges, both playing Fed Cup since 2008, are also in the team.Captain Barbara Rittner is attempting to become the fourth woman to win the Fed Cup as a player and captain. She was in the last German team to triumph, 22 years ago.The Czechs have a 6-1 winning record against Germany.
