After Action Report

The Heat fended off the SuperSonics 120-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Heat cashed in. Heat's defenders refused to give up clean looks; SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. 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.
