After Action Report

The Heat downed the Knicks 128-114. The Knicks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Knicks looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Knicks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
