After Action Report

In Miami, the Bulls snuck past the Heat 134-129 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bulls cashed in. The Bulls came in with something to prove after a loss; Bulls' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Whispers of a Heat locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bulls · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
