After Action Report

In a track meet, the Heat knocked off the Celtics 143-114. The Celtics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Heat played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Heat's Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Heat rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
