When the Indiana Pacers and Miami Heat tangled in recent seasons, it was required viewing. Jonas Jersey . Catch all the action on TSN2 tonight at 7:30pm et/4:30pm pt One summer made the matchup a little less appealing, but the two squads will duke it out Wednesday night at AmericanAirlines Arena in South Beach. These two met in the Eastern Conference Finals the last two seasons and the series were entertaining. Everything changed this offseason. LeBron James left the Heat to try and save the city of Cleveland Cavaliers. Pat Riley and the Heat brass replaced him as best they could and the results have been solid. Miami is tied for the lead in the Southeast Division. The Pacers lost Lance Stephenson, a skilled play-maker, premiere defender and master agitator. Then, Paul Georges horrific leg injury with USA Basketball left the Pacers in shambles. Thats the nature of pro sports right now, is teams turn over very quickly, much more rapidly than it was 15, 20 years ago, certainly, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra told the Sun Sentinel. And you have to be able to adapt the best that you can in this business. So both teams look quite a bit different than they did in the Eastern Conference finals last year. The Heat have won two in a row after a pair of losses. The four-time reigning Eastern Conference champs dispatched the Minnesota Timberwolves at home on Friday, then earned a terrific victory Saturday night. Miami beat the Dallas Mavericks in Big D, 105-96. Luol Deng turned in his best game as a member of the Miami Heat, scoring 30 points. Dengs previous high this season was 18, but he filled it up against the Mavs as Miamis new Big Three all contributed to the victory. Dwyane Wade supplied 20 points with 10 assists and Chris Bosh posted 20 points and 10 rebounds for the Heat. We wanted to come up with a much tougher mindset to make plays and keep our head in the game collectively and just find a way to close out the game, said Spoelstra. The ball was moving and it was encouraging to see. The Pacers halted a six-game losing streak with a 97-86 home victory over the Utah Jazz on Monday night. Roy Hibbert scored a season-high 29 points two days after leaving a game with an injured knee. Hibbert scored 11 of his 29 points in the first quarter after suffering a knee bruise in the first quarter of Saturdays game against Washington. A.J. Price scored 22 points off the bench four days after the banged-up Pacers signed him to bolster their depleted backcourt. Price, who played his first three NBA seasons with the Pacers from 2009-12, made two 3-pointers during a 13-2 run in the fourth quarter that turned a three-point deficit into an eight-point lead. He obviously gave us a big-time lift tonight, said Pacers Frank Vogel, who expects the team to re-sign Price when his 10-day contract is up as long as the team still needs bodies. Solomon Hill added 13 points and Lavoy Allen scored 12 with a game-high 15 rebounds off the bench. The Pacers, who avoided what would have been their longest losing streak in five years, are still without David West, George Hill, CJ Watson and Rodney Stuckey. CJ Miles missed the last two with a migraine. The home team has won the last nine regular-season meetings between these two. Indiana has lost six in a row and is 2-13 in its last 15 regular-season matchups down in South Beach. Houston Rockets vs. Minnesota Timberwolves The NBA will put its product on the line tonight in the Mexico City Arena, where the Houston Rockets and Minnesota Timberwolves will tip off in the leagues expanded NBA Global Games schedule. Catch all the action tonight on TSN2 at 10pm et/7pm pt We are very proud to once again represent the NBA in Mexico, said Timberwolves President Chris Wright. This is a great opportunity for the NBA and the Minnesota Timberwolves to continue the incredible growth of our international fan base. The Mexico City fans were phenomenal last year and we look forward to visiting them again this season. The Timberwolves were scheduled to play the San Antonio Spurs in Mexico City, Mexico last season, but the game was postponed because of smoky conditions inside the arena. A generator malfunction sent smoke pouring into the building and the arena was evacuated about 45 minutes prior to tip off. The last regular-season NBA game in Mexico was on Dec. 6, 1997, when the Rockets beat the Dallas Mavericks. Minnesota is 2-4 on the season and went 1-2 on a recent road trip, which culminated with Saturdays 102-92 loss at Miami. Nikola Pekovic posted 19 points and 11 rebounds, and Thaddeus Young supplied 16 points and six boards for Minnesota, which was without its young point guard Ricky Rubio for the first time this season. Rubio is dealing with an ankle injury. We battled, Wolves coach Flip Saunders said. We got a couple of groups together that played hard. That was a positive to build on. Rookie Andrew Wiggins scored 10 points in defeat. The Rockets started the season 6-0 and came back to earth with Saturdays 98-87 loss to the Golden State Warriors. The two teams were both undefeated. Stephen Curry scored 14 of his game-high 34 points in the fourth quarter to lead the Warriors, while James Harden paced the Rockets with 22 points and Isaiah Canaan ended with 21. Terrence Jones (leg) missed his third straight game, Patrick Beverley (hamstring) has been held out in four of five games and Dwight Howard was a late scratch with flu-like symptoms. Tonight was just a tough game in general missing three of our starters, Harden said. Jones and Beverly are still out and Howard should be back Wednesday. Howard is posting an average of 19.7 points and 11.5 rebounds. Houston went 3-1 against Minnesota last season and has won 20 of the past 26 matchups with the T-Wolves. Douglas Costa Jersey .

MARCOUSSIS, France -- A superb performance from Magali Harvey led Canada to a 31-7 rout of Spain on Friday at the 2014 Womens Rugby World Cup. Harvey led Canadas offence with 26 points on three tries, four conversions and a penalty. Mandy Marchak had the other try for Canada. Canada dominated the game and came close to a shutout before Spain scored a try with a few minutes left on the clock. Canada next plays Samoa on Tuesday. The Canadians (1-0) are trying to improve on their best World Cup result of fourth, achieved in 1998, 2002 and 2006. The team was a disappointing sixth in 2010.
