After Action Report
The Heat survived the Trail Blazers 112-108. The Heat got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Heat couldn't shake the cold spell; Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Trail Blazers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger.
What tipped it
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
