The Heat outlasted the Knicks 111-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Heat cashed in. The Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Heat's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
