After Action Report
The Heat outlasted the Hawks 108-100. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hawks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
