After Action Report

In Miami, the Heat outlasted the Celtics 112-105. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Heat came in with something to prove after a loss; the Celtics are in a full-on tailspin. The Heat locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
