WASHINGTON (AP) ― His feet soaking in a tub of ice, his eyes scanning a box score, LeBron James chuckled a bit at the notion that his Miami Heat might learn something from a surprising setback against the Washington Wizards.

“Nah, man, there’s not no lesson. This ain’t a lesson for us. We just lost,” James explained.

“We’ve seen and been through everything, so we don’t need a loss to be like, ‘Oh, let’s catch ourselves.’ It happens.”

Perhaps inspired by the courtside presence of Washington Redskins rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III, who exchanged a handshake with Cowboys fan James after the final buzzer, the Wizards doubled their victory total this season.

The Wizards improved to 2-13, earning their second win in the past three games after starting a franchise-worst 0-12.
