After Action Report

The Kings survived the Heat 95-93. Ugly basketball, but the Kings did just enough. Shots just aren't falling for the Kings lately; Kings' outside barrage was a constant threat. Whispers of a Heat locker-room rift aren't helping. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

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