After Action Report
The 76ers outlasted the Heat 108-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. 76ers' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Heat looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the 76ers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
