After Action Report
The Heat squeaked past the Trail Blazers 97-94. Heat's offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Heat bent the defense out of shape from deep. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
