After Action Report
In Miami, the Heat took care of the Timberwolves 103-88. The Heat won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Timberwolves' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Timberwolves' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. 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. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Timberwolves · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
