After Action Report
The Pacers edged the Heat 95-86. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Heat came in with something to prove after a loss; Heat's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Heat rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
