After Action Report
The Heat handled the Trail Blazers 102-88. The Trail Blazers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Heat. The Heat sent shots into the fifth row all night; Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
