• Wizards Fall Flat in Upset Encore ; Heat Catch Fire in the Fourth

For as electrifying as the Washington Wizards' play and the atmosphere at Verizon Center was in their upset victory against Cleveland on Thursday, everything about Saturday night was just as flat. The Wizards again faced a team led by an MVP candidate - this time Miami's Dwyane Wade. Unlike Thursday, the Wizards didn't rise to the occasion, suffering a 118-104 defeat. Gone was the sizzle created Thursday by franchise point guard Gilbert Arenas. He sat out Saturday's game to rest his surgically repaired left knee. Missing in action was a scoring punch off the bench. Spark plug guard Nick Young sprained his knee in the first quarter, and usually reliable backup big man Darius Songaila had a quiet night.

• A Roster Fraught with Hard Realities

When Flip Saunders gets around to taking a hard look at the 15- player roster of the Wizards, he will find the limited, the attitudinally challenged and the physically spent.
