The Heat have to be ecstatic about the play of their point guards so far this year.  25-year old Mario Chalmers has played in 3 games (all starts) for the Heat so far this year and he is averaging 25.0 minutes, 7.3 points, 1.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 3.0 steals per game.  23-year old rookie Norris Cole has been really solid so far for the Heat.  Cole has played in 3 games (0 starts) for the Heat so far this year  and he is averaging 23.0 minutes, 10.7 points, 2.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.3 steals per game.  Mario Chalmers better watch behind his back as Norris Cole is already gaining on him.
