MIAMI -- The Atlanta Hawks won in a different manner than usual.The Miami Heat, their story stayed the same.Dennis Schroder scored 18 points, Paul Millsap and Tim Hardaway Jr. each had 15 and the Hawks pushed their winning streak to five games by beating the reeling Heat 93-90 on Tuesday night.The Hawks were held nearly 17 points below their season scoring average, and prevailed despite shooting just 35 percent in the fourth quarter.To find a way to win on the road against a team that competes every night in Miami, I think its a positive, Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer said.Mike Muscala scored 14 and Kent Bazemore added 12 for the Hawks. Dwight Howard had 11 points and 11 rebounds for the Hawks, before leaving with 3:06 left in the third quarter with a bruised left thigh.Were obviously not playing our best basketball yet, Millsap said.Hassan Whiteside scored 19 points and grabbed an NBA season-high 25 rebounds for Miami, which has now dropped six straight. The eight Heat losses so far this season have come by an average of 6.9 points -- with three of the last four coming by four points or less.All of the teams that have beaten Miami so far are currently over .500.Were not losing to bad teams, Whiteside said. Were right there. It makes no sense to get down on ourselves. Its not like were getting blown out. Were still a top-five defensive team. Were just trying to get the offense there. Were going to get it right.Josh Richardson also scored 19 for Miami, which got 14 points from Tyler Johnson, 13 from James Johnson and 11 from Dion Waiters.Miami got within one twice in the final 13.6 seconds, but the Hawks held on with free throws. Schroder swished a pair with 5.9 seconds left to put Atlanta up by three, and the Heat -- with no timeouts -- lost when Waiters 3-pointer hit the rim and bounced away as time expired.This is where you just have to have great mental resolve to stay the course, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. Eventually, you get your breakthrough.TIP-INSHawks: Despite his night ending early, Howard got his eighth double-double in 10 games this season. ...

I just hope the best for him, the Heisman Trophy contender told reporters Sunday following a team meeting.?Fournette, who missed the first 20 minutes of the impromptu meeting because of a doctors appointment, said he spoke privately with Miles afterward.?Im going to keep that between us, Fournette said in reference to the conversation.Miles, one of the most successful coaches in SEC history, was fired as head coach of the Tigers after a disappointing 2-2 start. Offensive coordinator Cam Cameron and assistant director of football operations Dean Dingman were also let go.Defensive line coach Ed Orgeron, who went 6-2 after taking over for Lane Kiffin as USCs interim coach in 2013, will replace Miles as interim coach, and tight ends coach Steve Ensminger will serve as the new offensive coordinator.Miles and Orgeron both addressed the team at the meeting.That man (Miles) is so passionate about LSU, safety Jamal Adams said. Hes been here for 12 years, he recruited me and I think that he was just very emotional as far as letting go. But he wants to do what was best for us.It was also an emotional meeting for his players.When he came and he gave his speech, it touched me, senior wide receiver Travin Dural said. You could feel the pain in his voice, you could hear it. He almost broke down, but you could tell he loves this program, he loves this school. He loves every one of us. Hes a players coach. If anybody tells you different, I dont know what their experience was with him. I have nothing but great memories with him. Everyone has great memories with him.Orgeron emphasized teamwork when he spoke to the players, bringing out a piece of rope as a symbol that they must all pull in the same direction to finish the season successfully..ddddddddddddDural suggested that Orgerons message was something the team needed to hear.A couple of us might have been looking on to the NFL, Dural said. A couple of us mightve just been worrying about stats, and that kind of hurt us. It showed. A couple guys missed assignments, tried to do too much. But looking forward, I think we have a new outlook on things. I think the programs going to move forward.It wasnt a day for positivity around LSUs football facility, but center Ethan Pocic said the Tigers can gain some level of confidence from Orgerons prior experience in this kind of situation. USC was 3-2 and going nowhere after a 62-41 loss to Arizona State when Orgeron took over for Kiffin in September 2013, only to lead the team to a 9-4 record and top-20 final ranking.Coach Os a fiery guy and now that this all happened, being sad and stuff like that, thats not going to help us, said Pocic, whose team hosts Missouri on Saturday (7:30 p.m. ET, SEC Network). We just want to go play ball on Saturday.Sunday was not about Orgeron, however. LSU will officially introduce its interim coach at a luncheon on Monday. The sting of Miles departure was still too fresh Sunday for the focus to be on anyone but the longtime coach.He has been one of the sports most popular, quirky figures for more than a decade, and the players unanimously agreed they will miss Miles presence greatly.Hes a different guy, he has a different sense of humor, he has a different way of going about doing things. ... He did a lot of great things and he brought out the best in all of us, Dural said. He was a players coach. He taught me a lot of things and I experienced a lot of things with him, and Im going to miss him. Everybodys going to miss him -- the whole program, the whole state of Louisiana, all LSU fans -- were going to miss him. ' ' '
