After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat rolled past the Knicks 114-91. Every possession went the Heat way. The Heat sent shots into the fifth row all night; the Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
