ATLANTA 105, MIAMI 90
When Joe Johnson is scoring and Josh Smith is doing a little bit of everything, the Atlanta Hawks are awfully hard to beat. The Miami Heat got a sampling of that 1-2 punch last night. Johnson made it two straight 30-point games, Smith dominated during a decisive first-half run and the Hawks won their sixth in the row, beating Miami at home to reclaim a share of the NBA's best record with Phoenix. Johnson scored 30 points on the heels of a 35-point effort against Portland on Monday. Smith had 16 points, 14 rebounds, seven assists and two blocks.
