After Action Report
The Heat shocked the Mavericks 109-98. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Heat ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Mavericks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. 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. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
