After Action Report

The Kings handled the Heat 129-111. Kings torched the Heat on the offensive end. The Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
