After Action Report
The Mavericks snuck past the Heat 96-94. The Mavericks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Heat looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
