Damian Lillard scored a season-high 49 points, tied a career high with nine 3-pointers, and carried the Portland Trail Blazers past the Miami Heat, 115-104 on Sunday night. He had 16 points after checking in for the final time with 8:26 left, sparking a game-ending 28-18 run. "I felt good, so in my mind I was like `When I get back in the game, I'm just going to take the game over," Lillard said. "That's the kind of game I felt I had going." Lillard shot 14 for 21 from the field, 9 for 12 from 3-point range and made all 12 of his free throws.
