Norris Cole was 3 of 3 from three-point range and Ray Allen and Shane Battier had two three-pointers each.Miami Heat’s James Jones always ready to play--Miami Herald
...
Cole drained a three-pointer with 7:09 left in the fourth quarter to give the Heat a 102-76 lead. Miami led 90-71 entering the final period. The Heat has scored at least 100 points in 11 of the team’s first 12 games.
Said Jones, pragmatic as always: “You just pick your poison. That’s every team. This league is full of guys who can make shots. I’m just blessed to be on a team with guys that are willing to make the extra pass because many, many teams you’ll find that team’s best players are reluctant to get off the ball. LeBron, D-Wade, Mario [Chalmers], Norris [Cole], they get off the ball really well.”Jones, Heat beat Magic at their own game 120-92--South Florida Sun Sentinel
Just as Michael Beasley, Rashard Lewis, Mario Chalmers, Norris Cole, Ray Allen and Chris Andersen have done already this season, it again was a case of someone beyond the realm of the Big Three providing a big threat.Patience is the key for Heat's Norris Cole--South Florida Sun Sentinel
...
Once again, it was Heat by committee, with Chalmers, Andersen, Beasley and Cole also having their moments, as the Heat continued the pattern of fattening their record against the rest of the Southeast Division.

Morning Five: 11.21.13 Edition--Rush The Court
The fortunes of Duke Mondy and Dante Williams have taken quite a turn in the past week. During their trip to play at Cal last week the two players were accused of rape charges that were quickly dropped, but were suspended indefinitely from the team for their actions although they had already been cleared of the rape charges. Yesterday, Oakland announced that the two players were back on the team after a two-game suspension. We won’t get into the moral issues of the suspension and what they did since this is not really the place to discuss that, but we will note our amusement at the school’s internal review of the incident. What investigation could the school, which has no power out in California (the school is based in Michigan), have conducted in such a short period of time? We have no problem with them letting the two play again, but the idea of a legitimate internal review seems ridiculous.Oakland reinstates Duke Mondy, Dante Williams after two-game suspension--CollegeBasketballTalk

Northwestern Showing Signs of Life But Still Has Problems--Rush The Court
UIC, a team expected to finish in the middle of the Horizon League, has also underperformed relative to their already mediocre expectations. The Flames started the preseason ranked 262nd in the country, according to KenPom, but has since fallen to 302nd. Their defense has been less than stellar (giving up 106.4 points per 100 possessions) and their weaknesses played right into the Wildcats’ hands: poor perimeter defense and a stark lack of rim protection. For the season, UIC has allowed teams to shoot 46.7 percent from deep (342nd in the country). The Flames didn’t fare any better on Wednesday when they allowed the Wildcats to make 55 percent of their three-point shots. UIC has also allowed its opponents a free pass when they’ve been beaten off the dribble by only blocking 3.2 percent of all possible shots. Once Northwestern cleared space in the lane by sinking some threes, they were able to get to the rim easily. So as it turns out, UIC was a perfect match for the Wildcats to get the team’s confidence going.Northwestern trounces UIC 93-58--The Chicago Tribune
