After Action Report
The Heat rolled past the Pacers 125-91. The Pacers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Heat; the Heat steamroller is in full effect right now. 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. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Heat · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pacers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
